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.
