QR ordering and online booking

During peak hours, much of the staff's time goes into taking orders and answering questions about when they will be ready.

Guests order by scanning the QR code on the table and are notified when the order is ready. The status of every table is shown live in the panel.

Pressure points

Challenges in this sector

Scattered order intake

Table, takeaway and phone orders arrive at the same time and are not recorded in one system.

Repeated menu reprints

Every price change requires a reprint; a digital menu can be edited immediately.

Unanswered bookings

Booking requests go unanswered during busy hours, and guests book elsewhere.

No customer history

Visits are not recorded, so regular customers cannot be distinguished from one-off visitors.
