Letting customers order half-and-half pizzas

Turn on half and half for a menu category so guests can build one pizza from two different halves, priced at half of each.

Half and half lets a customer split one item between two choices from the same category. It's the classic way to order a pizza that's half one topping and half another, but it works for any category where combining two halves makes sense.

Turning it on for a category

  • Open the menu editor for your restaurant.
  • Press the + button on the category and choose Allow ordering half and half.
  • A 'Can order half and half' tag appears on the category so you can see it's enabled.
  • Save your changes.

The category needs at least two dishes for half and half to be offered, since a customer picks two of them.

How customers order it

  • On your menu page a '+ Half and half' button appears next to the category name.
  • Tapping it opens a picker that lists only that category's dishes.
  • The customer selects two dishes; once the second is chosen the picker closes automatically.

Pricing and the basket

The combination shows up as a single basket line, for example '1/2 Margherita + 1/2 Pepperoni', priced at half of each dish added together. It behaves like any other item, so the customer can change its quantity or remove it.

Good to know

  • The '+ Half and half' button only shows when the category has at least two available dishes.
  • Both halves always come from the same category.
  • Add-ons aren't applied to a half-and-half combination, since they belong to individual dishes.
