Floor Plan and Table Management

TouchBistro's POS system comes packed with a floor plan and table management software. It eases your floor and table planning to help you provide seamless table service. It also ensures a smooth guest experience while dining and saves you time by simplifying table assignments for your staff.

You get to add and remove tables, walls, sections, and dining rooms with a few simple clicks. Any change you make will automatically sync with your in-store floor plan. This restaurant layout maker will also let you assign servers to certain sections and tables in the restaurant; this will help you increase productivity and enhance the guest experience.

You can also help your guests transfer tables easily without them losing their bills or interrupting their time. And with the TouchBistro Reservations feature, your guests can easily book tables and choose which seats they want. 


Menu Management

The menu is always at the heart of every restaurant, and TouchBistro's menu management keeps it providing the best for your customers. You can easily build and edit your menu and seamlessly sync your changes to your in-venue and online ordering menus using this tool.

Moreover, you can also add detailed menu descriptions to help servers answer diners' questions, thus improving the guests' experience. Menu management software also aids you in take-out orders by viewing them separately to streamline kitchen operations.
 

Analytics & Reporting

A successful business or restaurant requires real-time reports and analytics, and TouchBistro offers all that. TouchBistro provides you with more than 50 reports that update in real-time, so you can study the data and make smart decisions based upon them. TouchBistro also packs cloud-based POS reports that you can access from anywhere without being in the restaurant.

TouchBistro also gives insight into your staff's performances and helps you inform scheduling, promotions, and training decisions.
 

Inventory Management

Inventory management keeps your restaurant running smoothly and your customers informed about which ingredients or menu items are out of stock. Real-time reporting keeps you alert when certain ingredients are almost running out, plus the quantity that needs to be ordered, so you do not waste money or food.

With inventory management, of course, you can record ingredient details, and when new shipments arrive, all menu items with those ingredients will be automatically updated.
