Plenty of regulars don't know you take orders online. They see you on a delivery app, or they call, or they assume they have to come in. An order online post fixes that with a reminder that is easy to act on: here's the food, here's where to order it.
The order online template comes as a short video in native, poster and editorial looks, in 9:16 for Stories and Reels plus 4:5 and 1:1 cuts sized for Google Business Profile. There's also a still 9:16 order online card that shows your photo, your name and your ordering address. Sunnyside Cafe's card points straight to its own order page.
All of it is template work, so none of it uses credits. Make the set once and schedule it to run before the evenings you know are busy.
Looks
Pick the look that sounds like you
Poster
A color block and bold type over a close shot of the dish. Boston Pizza's cut leads with its Margherita, so the first thing you see is what you'd be ordering.
Editorial, Google Business cut
A 4:5 version with quiet serif captions, sized for a Google Business Profile post. Boston Pizza has a 1:1 native cut for the same spot.

How it works
How to use the Order online video template
Pick the photo that starts the video
Choose a dish people order for takeout, or a shot of your dining room if you want the post to feel like your place. Studio fills in the words from your menu, and you can check every one before it renders.
Make the Story and the Google cut
Render the 9:16 version for Instagram and TikTok, then the 4:5 or 1:1 cut for your Google Business Profile, plus the still card for Stories if you want one.
Schedule it before the rush
Put the posts on the calendar for the afternoons before your busiest takeout nights, and repeat them. This is a reminder, and reminders work by showing up again.
Why the Google Business cut matters
People who find you on Google are usually close to deciding. They searched your name or "pizza near me" and they're looking at your profile right now. A recent post there that says you take orders, with a photo of the food, answers the question they came with. That's why the order online template comes with 4:5 and 1:1 cuts sized for Google Business Profile posts.
Connect your Google Business Profile in Studio and you can post these the same way you post to Instagram, or schedule them to go out on the same day.
Food shot or dining room?
Boston Pizza's poster version leads with the Margherita. Sunnyside Cafe's native version spends time in the dining room, with plates already on the counter. Both work, for different reasons. A food shot sells the order. A room shot reminds people of the place, which suits a cafe or diner where the regulars feel at home.
If you're choosing a dish, pick something that travels well and still looks right in a box: pizza, subs, burgers, bowls. Skip the dish that only looks good for thirty seconds after it leaves the pass.
Make the ordering step obvious
- Use one ordering address everywhere. If you take orders on your own site, point people there, and keep it short enough to type.
- Say how to order in plain words: "Order pickup at" beats "Click the link in bio to explore our menu".
- Post the reminder before people decide, not during the rush when your kitchen is already full.
- Keep the same look each week so the post becomes familiar.
FAQsFrequently asked
Frequently asked
questions
What is an order online poster for a restaurant?
It's a post or print sign that shows your food and tells people where to order it. Studio makes it as a short video and as a still 9:16 card.
Can I post the order online video to Google Business Profile?
Yes. The template has 4:5 and 1:1 cuts for Google Business posts, and you can post or schedule them once your profile is connected.
Does the order online template use credits?
No. It's a template video, so there's no credit cost. The still order online card is free too.
Can I use a photo of my dining room instead of a dish?
Yes. Sunnyside Cafe's native version features its own dining room. Use whichever photo best says "this is us".
Which look should I use for an order online Story?
Native if you want it to feel like a regular's post, poster if you want the dish and the call to order to land hard. Both come in 9:16.
How often should I post an order online reminder?
Before your busiest takeout nights, every week. A reminder only works if people keep seeing it, and scheduling it once saves you from remembering.
