Kitchen Control allergen matrix on a tablet in a professional kitchen

The allergen matrix, generated automatically from your live recipe data.

Sound familiar?

The back of house headaches
every kitchen knows

Allergen sheets on scraps of paper

Handwritten, out of date, impossible to share with staff. One change to a recipe means rewriting everything.

Recipe costs calculated on receipts

You know your food costs are too high but working out where is a full afternoon's job. GP% calculated on guesswork.

Invoice data entered by hand

Every delivery brings another stack of invoices to type up. Prices change and your recipe costs are instantly wrong.

Software that costs more than a commis

Enterprise kitchen systems charge £100-500/month. Designed for restaurant groups, not independent kitchens.

What Kitchen Control does

Everything your kitchen needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Built around how professional kitchens actually work — not how software companies think they do.

Allergen Management

Kitchen Control's allergen management software scans ingredient labels with your phone. Allergens are captured automatically and flow through every recipe, dish and menu. Full compliance with the Food Information Regulations 2014.

Live Recipe Costing

Every recipe shows live cost price and GP%. Scan a supplier invoice and ingredient prices update automatically across every recipe that uses them.

AI Invoice Scanning

Photograph a delivery invoice and Kitchen Control reads it — extracting every line item, updating costs and adding new suppliers automatically.

Recipe Import

Photograph a page from your recipe book — handwritten or printed — and Kitchen Control reads it. Ingredients are matched to your stock automatically, and anything it can't find is flagged clearly rather than guessed.

Food Label Printing

Print an allergen and use-by label for any ingredient, prepped item or recipe in seconds — allergens pulled automatically, shelf life calculated for you. Works with a standard Brother QL label printer.

Yield Tracking

Record true yield after trimming and cooking. Your recipe costs reflect what actually goes on the plate, not what comes off the delivery truck.

Order List Generation

Build menus, set covers and Kitchen Control generates your order list automatically. No more working backwards from a menu at midnight.

Multi-User & Real-Time

Your whole team works from the same data in real time. Role-based permissions mean everyone sees exactly what they need to.

See it in action

Real screens. Real kitchen data.

This is the actual product — not mock-ups. The same screens your team will use on the pass, in the office and on the go.

The dashboard — suppliers, ingredients, recipes and menus in one place

Scan invoices & labels from your phone

Why Kitchen Control exists

Built in a working kitchen.
For working kitchens.

I'm a head chef. I built Kitchen Control — commercial kitchen software I'd actually want to use myself — because I was sick of the same problems every kitchen faces: allergen compliance done on scraps of paper, recipe costs that never reflected reality, and hours spent on admin that should take minutes.

The systems that existed were either too expensive for independent kitchens or too complicated for people who spend their days on the pass, not behind a desk.

So I built what I always wished existed. Simple enough to use during service prep. Powerful enough to keep you compliant and profitable.
