The story
Eat Offbeat is a New York company that serves food from all over the world, cooked by chefs who arrived as refugees and immigrants. They needed one website that could handle meal subscriptions, office catering and a gift shop — and tell their chefs’ stories.
Three different businesses — weekly meal boxes, office catering and nationwide gifts — all had to live happily in one website that still felt warm and personal.
What we built for them
Meal subscriptions
New Yorkers pick a box size and a delivery date, and dinner just shows up.
Online catering
Offices can browse menus and order for a crowd in a few clicks.
A gift shop
Gifts and pantry goodies shipped anywhere in the US, with a smooth checkout.
Easy menu updates
The team changes menus themselves — no developer needed.
Diet filters
Vegan? Vegetarian? Diners see only what suits them.
Easy to find on Google
Built so search engines understand and show the site.
How we got there
Every project is different. Here’s how this one came together.
Step by step
We built it in small rounds, adapting as customers’ needs changed before, during and after COVID-19.
The whole kitchen, not just the shop
Besides the ordering site, we built order management and a kitchen tool shaped around how the team really works.

In their words
Beautiful, easy to use — and within our startup budget
“Polar Stork didn’t only give us a beautiful platform, they made sure it was user friendly. They helped me create the website our organization needed to reach a larger audience, while making sure it fit in our startup budget. We’ll be thanking them for years to come!”
