We thought we’d take a different slant to our blog this week and give you some insight into a week in the life of the Orderella team. It is true we do spend a lot of our time currently at pubs, after all they are our place of business, but it’s not all knocking back Pints and sipping on Champagne.

Thanks to our technical team, James and Arlen, there is constant updating of the Orderella app in the background to ensure that you have the best mobile payment app available. Did you know you can now check-in with Facebook when you check into a new location? Most excitingly Orderella for android is coming soon!

There are also meetings with all the companies who ensure that Orderella is working seamlessly in the background. Discussions with new venues to come on board with Orderella. Thanks to your support and recommendations we’re busy securing your favourite locations. And our CFO, Michael, is always busy balancing the books. 

Marketing are hard at work with updates on twitter, Facebook, our website and LinkedIn so you have the most recent information and offers. Don’t forget to follow us so you can keep up with all that is going on with Orderella. We had a great offer on Tuesday night for all Orderella app users at the Keyworth Tavern. If England won the football there would have been free drinks for all of our loyal Orderella app users. We were sorry that England didn’t win.. next time eh?

Londoners finally got a taste of the Orderella experience, when we went live last night at the flagship Fuller’s pub The Parcel Yard at Kings Cross station.

The Parcel Yard is the largest station pub in the UK and this year’s winner of the Griffin Trophy as Fuller’s pub of the year. It’s easy to see why the Parcel Yard is so popular, with a sympathetic renovation from what was once the parcel offices for Kings Cross station into a warm and inviting pub.

Guests were warmly welcomed upon arrival by Nick Cameron, the General Manager of the Parcel Yard,  and all orders were fulfilled with a smile by his friendly team. We had several members of the press coming to check out our offering and the lovely team from elliotts PR were there to meet and greet.

The response to the Orderella app has been phenomenal and last night was no exception. Members of the public and press alike were telling us how simple and easy it is to use and the drinks were certainly flowing with orders from iphones and ipads alike.

We were delighted when Jonathan Swaine, MD of Fuller's, stopped by for a drink with the Orderella team. We finished with a toast to another successful venue and our launch in London. We look forward to many more so stay tuned for all the latest news!
