Waiter ordering app replacing order pads

Orders taken at the table on a handheld and sent straight to the kitchen.

  • Table-side order entry
  • Immediate kitchen routing
  • Menu with modifiers
  • Offline tolerance

The problem

Waiters wrote orders and walked them to the kitchen, losing table time and introducing transcription errors on the way.

What we built

We built a handheld ordering application that sends to the kitchen immediately and keeps working through the venue's weak coverage spots.

Modules delivered

  • Table-side order entry
  • Immediate kitchen routing
  • Menu with modifiers

  • Bill request from the table
  • Waiter-level reporting

What changed

What the delivered system does differently from the process it replaced.

  • Orders reach the kitchen without a walk
  • Transcription between pad and till is removed

Why this customer is not named

Most of our customers allow the work to be described but not their name published. Where a customer has given permission, their name and testimonial appear here.

Independent accounts of our work are published by customers themselves on our Facebook reviews page.

Does this look like your problem?

If any of this is familiar, the first step is the same one this project started with: a free requirement study that ends in a written scope and a fixed price.
