Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Simple Cafe at free against FoodMaxx's free with in-app purchases. Simple Cafe also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). FoodMaxx's advantage is ratings volume (5.7K vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
