For Cafes & Coffee Shops

Built for the Morning Rush

A fast counter POS, QR table ordering, and online pickup — all built to keep the line moving, without paying for restaurant-scale features your cafe doesn't need.

Why cafes choose RestroManage

Speed at the Counter, Not Just at the Table

Fast counter checkout

A POS built for quick, high-volume transactions during peak morning and lunch hours.

QR ordering for table service

Guests seated at a table scan and order without waiting to flag down staff.

Order-ahead for pickup

Regulars order online and collect on arrival, cutting queue time during the rush.

Simple menu management

Update drinks, sizes, and modifiers in one place — no separate system for food vs. beverage items.

The cafe day

From Morning Rattle to Last Call of the Steam Wand

A cafe runs on rhythm — the same few hours every day decide whether the week works. RestroManage is built around that rhythm, not around a full-service restaurant's service.

  1. 1

    7am – 10am, the breakfast rush

    Counter orders ring up in a few taps, guests on tables scan their QR card and order drinks without queueing, and order-ahead regulars collect without touching the line. Every order fires to the kitchen screen so food prep starts before the ticket is printed.

  2. 2

    11am – 2pm, the a la carte lunch

    Combo builds, size swaps, and no-modifier orders stay fast at the counter while dine-in and takeaway are tracked separately — so the same salad can be a sit-down plate or a bagged takeaway without double entry.

  3. 3

    2pm – 5pm, the afternoon lull

    Pre-orders for the walk-home crowd keep the till ticking over, and staff update the menu for seasonal specials in one place — drink sizes, prices, and photos change instantly across the QR menu, storefront, and POS.

  4. 4

    Close, one reconciliation file

    Shift reports split sales by channel and drawer, and sales sync to Xero, MYOB, or DATEV automatically — no pasting numbers into a spreadsheet at 11pm.

No upfront cost

Cafe FAQ

Cafe & Coffee Shop Questions, Answered

Is RestroManage built for cafes and coffee shops, or just full restaurants?+
RestroManage works for both. Cafes use the same fast counter POS, QR ordering for table service, and online ordering for pre-orders and pickup — without paying for restaurant-scale features you don't need.
Can customers order ahead for pickup?+
Yes. Online ordering supports pickup timing, so regulars can order their coffee and food ahead and walk in to collect it, reducing counter queues during the morning rush.
Does it handle a fast-moving counter service model?+
Yes. The POS is built for speed at the counter, and orders route straight to the kitchen display so drink and food prep starts immediately, without a docket being carried back by hand.
What does it cost for a single small cafe?+
Plans start with customer online ordering at AUD 19 per location. Brasserie and Signature add progressively more operational tools, and the first 6 months are free by default. See the pricing page for the live feature mapping and trial period.
