How Do I Keep Track of Takeaway Reviews on Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Just Eat and Google in One Place?

Takeaway reviews sit in four portals and the bad ones get seen too late. We bring every rating into one feed, flag problems and link them to orders.

Quick answer — TL;DR

Takeaway feedback is split between each delivery app's ratings, Google reviews and the odd Facebook message, so nobody reads it all and problems are spotted weeks late. We pull ratings and comments into one feed, link each one to its order where the app allows, group complaints by theme and send an alert when something needs attention that night.

You find out your rating dropped from a friend

Someone mentions that your score on one of the apps has slipped. You log in and see a run of low ratings from the last fortnight. Comments mention soggy chips and long waits. You look at the other apps. One is fine. One you have not checked since spring. Google has a new one-star review from a customer who ordered through an app and blames you for the rider.

You would have fixed the chips in a day if you had known. The fryer was playing up, or a new starter was bagging chips too early. But nobody saw the feedback while it was happening, because it sits in four places and nobody's job is to read them.

Why feedback gets missed

Each delivery app shows ratings in its partner portal, with its own layout and its own rules about which comments you can see. Google reviews live in your business profile. None of them notify you in a way that fits into a takeaway's day, and logging into each one is a job that slides every week.

Even when someone reads them, the comments are hard to act on. A rating on an app often cannot be tied back to the exact order, so you cannot see what was in it, when it went out or who packed it. Individual complaints look like bad luck. The pattern, the same dish, the same night, the same problem, only shows when you put everything together.

The price of feedback nobody reads

Missed signalWhat follows
A dish getting repeated complaintsMore bad ratings until someone notices
Slow nights showing in commentsRanking on the app slips
Google reviews left unansweredNew customers see complaints with no reply
Rider issues blamed on youYour rating carries problems outside your kitchen
Praise for particular dishesYour best sellers never promoted

Ratings also shape how the apps show you to new customers, so a fortnight of unnoticed problems can affect orders for much longer than the problem itself.

One feedback feed across every app

  1. We collect ratings and comments from each delivery app through its partner reporting where that is available to you, or from exports, and reviews from your Google Business Profile through its interface.
  2. Each piece of feedback is stored with its source, date, score and text, and linked to its order where the app provides an order reference.
  3. Comments are sorted into themes such as temperature, portion, missing item, lateness and rider, using a language model such as OpenAI or Anthropic Claude to read them, with the theme shown so you can correct it.
  4. An alert goes to your phone when a low rating arrives, or when a theme repeats within a short period, such as three cold-food comments in one evening.
  5. Google reviews can be answered from the same screen, with a suggested reply you edit before it is posted. App responses follow each app's own rules.
  6. A weekly summary shows scores by app, the top themes and the dishes mentioned most, good and bad.

What each app shares with partners changes from time to time. We build around what your accounts actually expose and tell you where a gap remains.

A week with every review in one place

On Wednesday your phone shows two cold-chips comments within an hour. You check the fryer and it is running low. It is fixed before the weekend. On Monday the summary shows your new lamb dish getting praise on two apps, so you move it higher on the menu. The Google review from the unhappy app customer gets a polite reply the same day.

  • Every rating and review in one feed
  • Problems spotted the same night, not weeks later
  • Complaints grouped by theme and dish
  • Replies to Google reviews without logging into another portal

Are your ratings getting away from you?

  • You have not looked at one of your apps' ratings in weeks.
  • You learn about a ratings drop after it has happened.
  • Google reviews go unanswered.
  • You cannot link a bad rating to the order it came from.
  • You do not know which dishes customers praise most.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Ask about your project

Can you pull ratings from every delivery app?

Most of the large apps provide ratings to partners in some form, but the detail varies. We check what your accounts give access to and build around it.

Will replies be posted automatically?

No. Suggested replies are drafts. You or a manager edit and approve them before anything is posted.

Is the theme sorting always right?

No. It is a first pass that saves reading time. Every comment shows its original text and the theme can be corrected.

What does it cost to run?

There is a build cost and small running costs for hosting and the language model. The build depends mostly on how many apps and sites you have.
