Built with restaurant service in mind.
Crumb is built by Alex Opsenica, a hospitality professional with 20 years of experience, working from Ireland. Its purpose is straightforward: give restaurants a clear way to maintain menu and allergen information, and prepare the documents their guests, kitchen and service team rely on.

Who created Crumb
20 years in hospitality came before a single line of this product. That is why Crumb is shaped by how service actually runs: a menu that changes mid-week, a kitchen that needs to know exactly what is in each dish, and a floor team answering allergen questions in the middle of a busy evening — not by how software companies imagine a restaurant works.
The problem it addresses
Menus change. Ingredients get swapped, suppliers change specification, and dishes come on and off the board. Every change means the ingredient information behind the dish has to be reviewed again — and then the guest menu, the kitchen matrix, the staff sheet and the printed copy all need to say the same thing.
In most kitchens that information lives in several places at once: a spreadsheet, a PDF, a printed folder and someone's memory. Keeping those in step by hand is the work Crumb is designed to remove.
How Crumb approaches it
Dishes are built from ingredients, and allergen information is held against those ingredients rather than retyped per menu. Changes are reviewed before anything reaches a guest: your team confirms the ingredients and allergen records, then approves publication.
Publish once and your QR menu and website embed show the approved version immediately. New PDFs, kitchen matrices and staff sheets are generated from the same source — files already printed or downloaded need to be regenerated. Your QR codes keep working; the destination doesn't change.
Crumb supports all 14 allergens regulated in the EU, with contains and may-contain records. Checking ingredients, suppliers, preparation methods and cross-contact remains the restaurant's responsibility.
