Flipdish

Flipdish is a Dublin-founded hospitality technology company that gives restaurants, cafes, and takeaways their own branded ordering channels — web, mobile, kiosk, QR, and direct — as an alternative to handing 25-35 percent of every order to third-party delivery marketplaces. Founded in 2015 by brothers Conor and James McCarthy, the company raised a USD 100 million Series C led by Tiger Global in 2022 at a unicorn valuation and serves tens of thousands of restaurant locations across Europe, North America, and Australia.

Beyond online ordering, Flipdish has moved into in-store self-order kiosks, loyalty, CRM, and analytics, effectively positioning itself as the POS-adjacent software layer that independent operators need to run a multi-channel business without betting their margin on Uber Eats or Just Eat. It is one of the most commercially meaningful Irish vertical-SaaS exits of the 2020s cohort.
