The same items, over and over, quickly
Speed comes from a layout the staff already know, not from search. Peak hour is decided by how few taps an order takes.
Cafés & bakeries
POS Software for Cafés and Bakeries
A café counter is a rhythm: the same twenty items, ordered fast, paid in cash and card, all day. What matters is the number of taps between a customer arriving and leaving.
What makes cafés & bakeries different
Cash-heavy trade needs a clean shift close
When most payment is cash, the register has to reconcile at the end of every shift or the discrepancy is untraceable.
Daily production is stock too
What was baked, what sold and what was left is the number that decides tomorrow's production run.
