Bistro Hustle: Idle Chef
Restaurant tycoon, tap & earn
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Start with one pretzel cart. Hire chefs, stack 262 upgrades, ride the lunch rush and sell out to start richer. No purchases, just the empire.
YOU START WITH ONE PRETZEL CART.
Tap to serve the first order. Buy a second cart, then a third. Hire a chef and the stand runs itself while you watch the next one go up. Forty stands later you are running a global food empire - and you still remember the cart.
TAP, THEN STOP TAPPING
Every stand starts in your hands. Hire a chef and it runs forever without you. The whole game is the slow handover from your thumb to your kitchen staff.
40 STANDS, ONE LIST
Pretzel cart, coffee corner, taco truck, ramen house, sushi bar, steakhouse, rooftop restaurant, cruise ship kitchen, global chain. No maps to manage, no timers to babysit - one list that keeps growing.
262 UPGRADES
Bigger trays, faster service, fresh ingredients, second counters, brand signs, loyalty cards. Every stand has six of its own, and twelve global upgrades multiply all of them. Hit 25, 50, 100, 200, 300 or 400 of a stand and its income doubles.
CHEFS THAT WORK WHILE YOU SLEEP
Chefs keep cooking when the app is closed. Come back to a pile of cash - and upgrade how long the kitchen stays open while you are away.
EVENTS THAT CHANGE THE RUN
Street festivals, happy hours, food critics, bakery rushes. And bad days too: meat price hikes, health inspections, storms at sea. Fifteen events roll through the day.
NINE REGIONS TO CONQUER
Street food, coffee, fast food, bakery, sweets, grill, Asian cuisine, seafood, fine dining. Watch the world map fill in as you take each one.
SELL OUT AND START RICHER
When a run peaks, sell everything for stars. Stars are permanent: they multiply every future run and buy seed money, longer offline earnings and chefs that start hired. The next empire is built faster than the last.
