Top tech to implement before the summer rush

Here are our top 5 EPoS solutions that pub and bar owners should consider implementing before the summer rush for an even more successful season. 


1. Digital order solution

As the warm season approaches, you’ll be experiencing more customers dining and drinking in your outdoor seating areas. To keep up with the increased visitor flow, a digital order taking solution like PocketTouch is invaluable. This intuitive software gives your staff immediate access to menu and promo details, minimising unnecessary trips to the till and allowing them to focus on customer service and upselling. PocketTouch effortlessly manages large spaces, boosting customer contentment and operational efficiency. Integrated with your order system, it sends orders directly to the kitchen and bar, instantly alerting staff and optimising summer service.


2. Order-at-table solution

Leverage the surge in traffic by diversifying your income with self-ordering solutions like ByTable. It assists busy venues with large outdoor spaces, helping maintain quality service and manage staff resources. ByTable enables customers to order food and drinks directly to their table, speeding up service, and freeing staff for other tasks. Additionally, ByTable boosts sales, offers customisability, and provides loyalty options for customer retention. It's an ideal tool for the upcoming season.


3. Intuitive kitchen display system

Revamp your pub garden management by introducing a smart, digital order solution like TouchKitchen. It organises all orders, whether placed from customers or staff, in a single, user-friendly interface. TouchKitchen enables kitchen staff to manage orders effectively, ensuring timely food delivery. It also minimises errors by ditching traditional pen-and-paper orders, displaying all incoming requests on your TouchKitchen screens. Plus, chefs can quickly alert front of house staff when an order is ready, enhancing table turnover and customer service.


4. ChefGuard order regulation system

ChefGuard, a feature on your ByTable and TouchTakeaway ordering apps, manages incoming orders to prevent kitchen overload during busy times. This virtual queueing system lets you control the volume of orders sent to the kitchen per minute and choose which kitchen printers utilise ChefGuard. You can continue printing drink orders instantly at the bar, while ChefGuard staggers the printing of food orders, reducing kitchen stress and keeping customers updated on their order status. ChefGuard is ideal for maintaining order during peak service periods.


5. Around the clock reservation system

With our intelligent reservation system, TouchReservation, streamline your administrative tasks and understand your customer traffic better. This system lets customers secure their preferred spot, enhancing their planning. Set your deposit rules and safely store guest payment information. It's fully integrated with your ByTable app and TouchPoint tills, automatically synchronising online and till bookings to avoid overlaps.
