FAQs
Questions teams ask before they switch.
Practical answers for restaurant, café and hospitality-group teams researching allergen management software.
What does ingredient-level allergen management mean?
It means allergen information is recorded against the ingredients first, rather than copied onto every dish. Recipes, menu items, variants and add-ons can then use the detail from the ingredients they contain.
What happens when a supplier or ingredient changes?
Update the source record, review the connected recipes and menu items, then publish the guest-facing change when your team is ready.
Can Harlo handle modifiers, swaps and add-ons?
Yes. Sauces, toppings, swaps and add-ons can be part of a dish, so the allergen information reflects the version a guest is actually considering.
Can we see why an allergen appears on a dish?
Harlo keeps the ingredient and recipe structure behind the dish, giving the team a clearer route back to the source information when they need to check it.
Can we manage allergen information across multiple locations?
Shared ingredient and recipe data can be managed centrally, while each location uses the menu, price and guest presentation that are relevant there.
Take the weight out of allergen management.
Bring your real menu into Harlo and see how much easier it is to keep the detail connected.
