Restaurant POS software.
Table service, a waiter app, the kitchen display, stock and online orders on one system.
Read more →Every order lands on one kitchen screen, whether it came from the till, a waiter’s phone, a QR code on the table, your own website, the kiosk or a delivery platform. Cooks see what to make, in what order, and how long it has been waiting.
The kitchen display shows orders from every place a restaurant takes them, in a single queue:
Nobody re-types an order from a tablet on the counter, and nothing waits on a printer that ran out of paper.
The board has three columns: to prepare, in progress and ready. A cook taps a ticket to start it, taps again when it is ready and clears it once it leaves the pass. A mistaken tap can be undone straight away.
Each ticket shows how many minutes it has been waiting and changes color as it ages, by default at 10 and 20 minutes. The header counts the late tickets. A chime plays when new items arrive and a different tone when a ticket turns late, and you can use your own sound.
Every line carries its options, its own note and the note on the order. Allergy notes and requests to leave something out stand out in red, so they are not lost in a busy service.
An all-day panel adds up each item across the open tickets, so the kitchen knows it has eleven burgers to make in total, not one ticket at a time.
In table service the waiter decides what goes to the kitchen and when. Starters can be sent first and mains later, and the kitchen display only shows the items that were actually sent, so the kitchen does not cook the main course while the guests are still on their soup.
Some kitchens still want paper. Orders can also print as kitchen order tickets (KOT) on network thermal printers, with food on the kitchen printer and drinks on the bar printer, on 58 or 80 mm paper.
Printing can start from the POS when an order is sent, or from the kitchen display, by hand or automatically. A print journal keeps track of what was already printed, so a reconnecting screen does not print the same ticket twice.
Marking a ticket ready tells the front of house: the POS plays a chime and shows which order is ready. For delivery, accepting the order sets an estimated ready time and the ticket counts down to it.
For pickup and fast food you can add a TV screen for customers that shows order numbers as received, preparing and ready. In the kitchen, the header shows the average preparation time, the 90th percentile and how many tickets are open against a capacity limit.
The kitchen display runs in a browser on any tablet, PC or TV, installs as a full-screen app and keeps the screen awake. Each screen can show the kitchen, the bar or both, and works in a light or dark theme.
It needs an internet connection. If the live connection drops, the board keeps refreshing every minute and shows a warning. For paper tickets you need a network thermal printer: USB, Bluetooth and built-in tablet printers are not supported.
The kitchen display is an add-on to the restaurant POS, from €15 per month. The customer pickup screen is a separate add-on, also from €15 per month. See pricing →
A screen in the kitchen that replaces paper order tickets. Every order appears as a ticket with its items, options and notes, and the cooks move it from to prepare, to in progress, to ready with one tap.
