What Is a Cloud Kitchen? How Online Food Delivery Works
A cloud kitchen (also known as a ghost kitchen or virtual kitchen) is a professional kitchen that prepares food only for delivery and takeaway. Unlike traditional restaurants, cloud kitchens do not have dine‑in seating.
They focus entirely on:
- Cooking fresh food
- Packing it hygienically
- Delivering it quickly to customers’ doorsteps
Because there is no dining space, cloud kitchens can offer better quality food at affordable prices.
