Having both Shop All and Online order pages on Square website

I've set up Online ordering page for my cafe but I also want to offer other products from our shop (mugs, photos, etc).  It's apparently not possible to have BOTH the Shop All (retail) and Order Online (menu) pages at the same time.  Does anyone know of a workaround to create a page for retail products (with options, sizes, etc)?  Thanks!

Hi @seaflowercafe.  The only possible work-around I can think of would be to have two Square locations — one for Retail and one for the Cafe.  This would allow you to have two websites — one for each ordering experience with the products available for that experience.  You could then provide links on each site to take visitors to the other site. 

 

Having said that, it might be more trouble than it is worth.  Do you have a lot of retail products?  If not, it would seem that it would be easier to put them into their own category and just offer them on the Order Online page in that category.  The experience would be slightly different, but at least everything would be on one website and therefore less confusing to the customers.  All items are available in both ordering experiences.

Thanks for your help and ideas, I agree the two sites would be extra work and likely confuse customers. Think I'll evaluate whether retail or food orders are likely to produce more sales, and choose the best.

We'd also love to see this feature. We are opening a retail store that also has a cafe, and we'll have hundreds of retail items + a full menu and bar.
