Delvd is launching in Sunderland: one dedicated home for the city's independent food scene. Claim your free profile now and be front and centre from the day the city starts looking.
We started in 2019 with one flat-top grill in a converted unit off the high street, two of us, and a stubborn idea that a burger should not cost twelve quid to be worth eating.
Not just a listing. A rich, professional profile that tells your full story, and keeps it up to date, on your terms.
Accurate and current, no more menu.pdf from 2022.
Your own content, not a stranger's blurry snap from three Christmases ago.
One accurate source of truth, linking your website, socials, phone and email.
Post directly to your profile; everyone who follows you sees it immediately.
Tell the city who you are and what makes your food worth travelling for.
Only customers who delve in or buy from you can leave one, and a redeemed purchase earns a Verified purchase badge.
Wearside Demo Kitchen is our own venue, set up exactly the way yours would be. Everything here is its real menu, its real photos, its real reviews. Press the buttons.
The first thing a customer sees. Your photo, your name, your story, and the button that lets them check in and review you.
Every dish with its own photo and price, set by you, changed by you, current the day someone looks.
Raids clear tonight's surplus. Steals fill a quiet Tuesday. Both are yours to switch on and price.
Full screen, one post at a time. Your posts, your customers' check-ins and their reviews, all in the same scroll.
What every customer sees the second they open Delvd on your day. One venue a day, and on your day it is you.

Meet the teamThe dashboard you get with your free profile. No app to install, works on the phone in your pocket or the laptop out back. Walk through the day with the four buttons here.
Everything at a glance the moment you log in: what you have taken, what is live, and how many people are waiting to hear from you.
Fill in four boxes and watch the customer's view build itself beside you. No guessing what it will look like: it is on the screen before you publish.
Orders land in the left lane with a sound. Accept, cook, mark ready. The customer sees every step move on their phone.
They show a code, you type it or scan it. It tells you what they bought and whether it is still valid, then it is done.
All of this. Free.
No listing fee. No catch. Just one home for every independent in the city, the one place you won't find a McDonald's.
Your profile is free forever. These optional tools help you generate extra revenue and reach more customers, at a fraction of what the big platforms charge.
List your end-of-day food as discounted Raid bags. Set your price, your window, your quantity. Customers reserve and pay in the app, then collect from you. You earn on food that would otherwise be wasted.
Create time-limited Steals: a set lunch deal, a percentage off, a specific dish. Customers buy them in the app and redeem at your counter. A proven way to fill covers and bring in new faces.
Your venue takes over the whole screen the moment someone opens Delvd, before they see anything else. One tap puts them on your profile. We sell one venue a day, so on your day everyone opening the app sees you, and nobody is sharing it with you.
On Raids, Steals and orders we take a small commission, only when they earn you money, and never on an order a customer cancels or you turn down. It is a fraction of what Wowcher, Too Good To Go or Facebook would charge you. Your profile itself stays free, always.
Wearside Demo Kitchen is our own demo venue, built to show the product.
People looking for somewhere great to eat in Sunderland are scattered across Google, Instagram, Facebook and Just Eat, with no single place that does justice to the independent scene. Delvd is that place.
Your business is split across five platforms with different information on each. Customers get confused and go somewhere easier to find.
You're posting fresh, mouth-watering shots every week, but on Google, they sit next to a stranger's blurry snap from three Christmases ago, with no way for customers to tell which one's actually you.
Up to 30% per order on delivery apps, and big brands pay to appear first. Independents are buried, even when you're the better choice.
Yes, your profile is free forever. No listing fee, no monthly charge, no commission on simply being found. We only take a small cut when a Raid, Steal or order earns you money, never on an order a customer cancels or you turn down, and Spotlight is a simple flat price you choose to book. There's no catch and no contract.
You claim your venue from our directory, or add it if it's missing, and send us your claim. We check every claim by hand, usually within a day, and your Official badge switches on once we've confirmed it's really you. You can look around the dashboard straight away, and full editing unlocks the moment you're approved.
Not at all. The dashboard is built for busy owners, not developers. If you've got photos on your phone or content you've already posted on Instagram or TikTok, that's a great starting point, and it's more than enough for a profile that looks professional.
We're onboarding Sunderland's independents now, ahead of public launch. Signing up early means your profile is ready and waiting the moment Delvd opens to customers, and you'll be one of the first names people see.
No, Delvd works alongside everything you already do. Think of it as the one place that pulls your menu, photos, hours, offers and reviews together properly, dedicated to Sunderland, without the noise or the fees of the bigger platforms.
Find your venue in our Sunderland directory and claim it. A couple of minutes is all it takes, and it stays free.
Claim your businessEvery claim is checked by hand, usually within a day, so nobody can claim a business that isn't theirs.
