We do not provide the Food/Drinks and only facilitate the order between you and the Restaurant

  1. Food and Drink Orders are a contract between you and the Restaurant. We provide a way for you to communicate your orders (“Order” or “Orders“) for food, drinks or other products (“Food/Drinks“) to the Restaurant displayed on the Online Service. The legal contract for the supply and purchase of Food/Drinks is between you and the Restaurant that you place your Order with and we will conclude the sale of Food/Drinks on behalf of, and as commercial agent for, the Restaurant in all cases.
  2. Restaurant terms of sale. Your Order will be subject to the Restaurant’s standard terms and conditions of sale, which sets out the terms of your contract with the Restaurant in relation to the Order.

Terms of accessing the Online Service

  1. Online Service access: You may access some areas of the Online Service without placing an Order or registering your details with us. Most areas of the Online Service are open to everyone.
  2. Accepting these terms by accessing the online service. By accessing any part of the Online Service, you indicate that you accept these terms. If you do not accept these terms, you should leave the Online Service immediately, and you will not be able to order any Food/Drinks with the Restaurant through the Online Service.
  3. Your access to the Online Service: You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Online Service. You are also responsible for ensuring that all persons who access the Online Service through your Internet connection are aware of these terms and that they comply with them.

Your status and age

  1. Minimum age of 18 to use the Online Service: By placing an Order through the Online Service, you warrant that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts with Restaurant, and you are at least 18 years old.
  2. Allergies and Food Intolerance. If you have a specific food allergy or intolerance, you must contact the Restaurant directly to check that the Food/Drinks are suitable for you, before placing your order directly with them.
  3. Age verification for alcohol, tobacco and other age related Food/Drinks. It is an offence for any person under the age of 18 to buy, or attempt to buy, alcohol in the UK, or for any person to buy, or attempt to buy, alcohol, tobacco or other smoking products in the UK on behalf of any person who is under the age of 18.  If your Order includes any alcohol, cigarettes or other smoking products, the Restaurant may ask you to provide proof of your age before providing you with the Food/Drinks the subject of you Order. If you are unable to provide proof that you are aged 18 or over to the satisfaction of the Restaurant, or if the Restaurant reasonably believes that the alcohol, cigarettes or other smoking products you have ordered have been bought by you on behalf of someone under the age of 18, the Restaurant reserves the right not to supply the alcohol, cigarettes or other smoking products to you.

Ordering with the Restaurant

  1. Placing Order and double checking its accuracy before placing an Order: Once you have selected the Food/Drinks you wish to order from the digital menu of the Restaurant and provided the other required information, you will be given the opportunity to submit your Order by clicking or selecting the “proceed”, “place my order” or similar button. It is important that you check all the information that you enter and correct any errors before clicking or selecting this button; once you do so you will be entering into a legally binding contract with the Restaurant and errors cannot be corrected (subject to paragraph 18. below).
  2. Limited rights to amend or cancel order after placing your Order through the Restaurant: Once you have submitted your Order and your payment has been authorised, you will not be entitled to change or cancel your Order, nor will you be entitled to a refund. If you wish to change or cancel your Order, you should contact the Restaurant in order to communicate your requests. However, there is no guarantee that the Restaurant will agree to your requests as they may have already started processing your Order.
  3. If your payment is not authorised. If your payment is not authorised, your Order will not be processed or placed with the Restaurant.
  4. Restaurant rejections. Please note that any confirmation page that you may see on the Online Service and any Order confirmation e-mail that you may receive each confirm that you have a contract for the sale of Food/Drinks with the Restaurant but does not necessarily mean that your Order will be fulfilled by the Restaurant. The Restaurant reserves the right to reject your order at any time, including for example, because the Restaurant is busy, food or drink shortages, or for any other reason. In doing so, the Restaurant will be in breach of their agreement with you and any payment made in respect of the order will be returned to you in accordance with paragraph 25 below.

We are an agent and have no liability for any default by the Restaurant

  1. Agents for the Restaurant.  Whilst your bank or credit card statement will refer to the transaction as Kitchen CUT Limited, and for the avoidance of any doubt, please note that we simply facilitate you placing an Order with the Restaurant through the Online Service in our capacity as commercial agent of the Restaurant and your contract for the Order is with the Restaurant.

Price and Payment

  1. Prices: Prices will be as quoted on the Online Service based on the information provided by the Restaurant. These prices include VAT but may exclude any administration or service charge imposed by the Restaurant. These will be added to the total amount due where applicable.
  2. Incorrect pricing in the digital menu provided by the Restaurant. This Online Service may contain a detailed menu and on rare occasions it is possible that some of the menus may include incorrect prices. If the correct price for an Order is higher than the price stated on the Online Service, the Restaurant will normally contact you before providing you with the Food/Drinks. If this happens, neither we nor the Restaurant is under any obligation to ensure that the Order is provided to you at the incorrect lower price or to compensate you in respect of incorrect pricing.
  3. Payment methods. Payment for Orders must be made by an accepted credit or debit card through the Online Service or in cash to the Restaurant.
  4. Rejected Orders.  To reflect standard banking procedures, once you have submitted an Order that you are paying for by credit or debit card and your payment has been authorised, your bank or card issuer will “ring-fence” the full amount of your Order. If your Order is subsequently rejected by the Restaurant (as described in paragraph 20 above) or cancelled for any other reason, your bank or card issuer will not transfer the funds for the Order to us, and will instead release the relevant amount back into your available balance. However, this may take between 3 to 5 working days (or longer, depending on your bank or card issuer). You acknowledge and agree that neither we nor the Restaurant will be responsible or liable to you in relation to this delay by your bank or card issuer in the release of funds back into your account.

Complaints and Queries must be raised with the Restaurant

  1. Questions about your Order. If your Order is taking longer than expected or you have any other problems with your Order, you should contact the Restaurant staff directly.
  2. Changing or cancelling your Order. If you wish to change or cancel your Order after it has been submitted and payment has been authorised, you will need to contact the Restaurant directly.
  3. Complaints should be raised with the Restaurant. If you are dissatisfied with the quality of any Food/Drinks or the service provided by the Restaurant, and wish to seek a refund, a proportionate price reduction or any other compensation, you should contact the Restaurant to lodge your complaint and, where appropriate, follow the Restaurant’s own complaint procedures. The legal contract for the supply and purchase of Food/Drinks is between you and the Restaurant and we have no control over the restaurants and the quality of the Food/Drinks or service that they provide, and we are not able to provide, and have no responsibility or liability for providing, any compensation to you on behalf of any Restaurant.
