Create a pizza ordering chatbot with GPT-3.5 - Menu, orders & status tracking
Pizza Ordering Chatbot with OpenAI - Menu, Orders & Status Tracking
Introduction
This workflow template is designed to automate order processing for a pizza store using OpenAI and n8n. The chatbot acts as a virtual assistant to handle customer inquiries related to menu details, order placement, and order status tracking.
Features
The chatbot provides an interactive experience for customers by performing the following functions:
- Menu Inquiry: When a customer asks about the menu, the chatbot responds with a list of available pizzas, prices, and additional options.
- Order Placement: If a customer places an order, the chatbot confirms order details, provides a summary, informs the customer that the order is being processed, and expresses gratitude.
- Order Status Tracking: If a customer asks about their order status, the chatbot retrieves details such as order date, pizza type, and quantity, providing real-time updates.

n8n Pizza Ordering Chatbot with GPT-3.5
This n8n workflow demonstrates how to create a conversational AI agent for a pizza ordering chatbot using GPT-3.5. It leverages LangChain nodes to manage chat interactions, memory, and provide tools for calculations and HTTP requests, simulating a real-world ordering system.
The workflow allows users to interact with a chatbot that can understand their pizza orders, answer questions, and potentially integrate with external services (like a menu API or order status checker).
What it does
This workflow sets up a sophisticated AI agent with the following capabilities:
- Listens for Chat Messages: The
Chat Triggernode initiates the workflow whenever a new chat message is received, acting as the entry point for user interaction. - Manages Conversation History: The
Simple Memory(Buffer Window Memory) node keeps track of the conversation history, allowing the AI agent to remember previous interactions and maintain context throughout the chat. - Processes User Input with an AI Agent: The
AI Agentnode, powered by aOpenAI Chat Model(GPT-3.5), is the core of the chatbot. It interprets user messages, decides on the appropriate action, and utilizes available tools. - Provides Calculation Capabilities: The
Calculatortool allows the AI agent to perform mathematical operations, which could be useful for calculating order totals, discounts, or other numerical queries. - Enables External API Calls: The
HTTP Request Toolempowers the AI agent to make HTTP requests to external services. This is crucial for a pizza ordering bot, as it could be used to:- Fetch menu items and prices from a database or API.
- Submit new orders to an order management system.
- Check the status of an existing order.
- Retrieve customer information.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted).
- OpenAI API Key: An API key for OpenAI to use the GPT-3.5 chat model. This needs to be configured as an n8n credential.
- LangChain Nodes: Ensure the
@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchainpackage is installed and enabled in your n8n instance.
Setup/Usage
- Import the Workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
- Configure Credentials:
- OpenAI Chat Model: Create an n8n credential for OpenAI and link it to the
OpenAI Chat Modelnode.
- OpenAI Chat Model: Create an n8n credential for OpenAI and link it to the
- Customize Tools (Optional but Recommended):
- HTTP Request Tool: Modify the
HTTP Request Toolto point to your actual pizza menu API, order submission endpoint, or status tracking service. You will need to define the API endpoints, methods (GET/POST), and any required headers or body parameters. - Calculator: The
Calculatortool is generally ready to use, but you can adjust its description if needed.
- HTTP Request Tool: Modify the
- Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow.
- Interact with the Chatbot: Use the
Chat Triggerto send messages to the bot (e.g., via a test chat interface or by integrating with a messaging platform like Telegram, Slack, etc., which would require additional trigger nodes).
This workflow provides a robust foundation for building an interactive and intelligent pizza ordering chatbot. By extending the HTTP Request Tool and potentially adding more specialized tools, you can create a fully functional and integrated ordering experience.

Auto-reply & create Linear tickets from Gmail with GPT-5, gotoHuman & human review
This workflow automatically classifies every new email from your linked mailbox, drafts a personalized reply, and creates Linear tickets for bugs or feature requests. It uses a human-in-the-loop with gotoHuman and continuously improves itself by learning from approved examples. How it works The workflow triggers on every new email from your linked mailbox. Self-learning Email Classifier: an AI model categorizes the email into defined categories (e.g., Bug Report, Feature Request, Sales Opportunity, etc.). It fetches previously approved classification examples from gotoHuman to refine decisions. Self-learning Email Writer: the AI drafts a reply to the email. It learns over time by using previously approved replies from gotoHuman, with per-classification context to tailor tone and style (e.g., different style for sales vs. bug reports). Human Review in gotoHuman: review the classification and the drafted reply. Drafts can be edited or retried. Approved values are used to train the self-learning agents. Send approved Reply: the approved response is sent as a reply to the email thread. Create ticket: if the classification is Bug or Feature Request, a ticket is created by another AI agent in Linear. Human Review in gotoHuman: How to set up Most importantly, install the gotoHuman node before importing this template! (Just add the node to a blank canvas before importing) Set up credentials for gotoHuman, OpenAI, your email provider (e.g. Gmail), and Linear. In gotoHuman, select and create the pre-built review template "Support email agent" or import the ID: 6fzuCJlFYJtlu9mGYcVT. Select this template in the gotoHuman node. In the "gotoHuman: Fetch approved examples" http nodes you need to add your formId. It is the ID of the review template that you just created/imported in gotoHuman. Requirements gotoHuman (human supervision, memory for self-learning) OpenAI (classification, drafting) Gmail or your preferred email provider (for email trigger+replies) Linear (ticketing) How to customize Expand or refine the categories used by the classifier. Update the prompt to reflect your own taxonomy. Filter fetched training data from gotoHuman by reviewer so the writer adapts to their personalized tone and preferences. Add more context to the AI email writer (calendar events, FAQs, product docs) to improve reply quality.
