A mobile POS for better service

Make yourself hungry with an online menu
As a restaurant owner, you believe in your recipes, but as customers, we only believe in what we see and taste. A lot of the disappointment in a restaurant experience is related to expectations. If someone leaves their comfortable sofa to come and eat at your establishment, it really has to be worth it. An incomplete or poorly-informed menu does not necessarily arouse curiosity. On the contrary, it can be frowned upon and cause suspicion. A customer who comes to eat at your establishment gives you their trust. While it is true that you are not entirely responsible when a potential customer inspects your menu on the window and does not enter, you can certainly increase your conversion rate with an online menu.
A physical menu can’t be as comprehensive as an encyclopedia or as interactive as an app (unless you’re using an iPad POS system , but that’s another story). An online menu isn’t a replacement business owner data for what you have in your restaurant; it’s a complement. With an online menu, you can display photos of your dishes and accompany them with detailed descriptions. Any potential customers who want to see your menu in advance will be reassured and won’t arrive at your establishment as if they were entering the dark woods of uncertainty. First impressions count, so show your customers that you want to put them at ease before they even discover your restaurant in person.

An online showcase
Having an online menu is the least you can do to be visible online. With a full website, you can go further. You can’t sit down at your customers’ table and show them pictures of your kitchen or tell them about your great-great-great-grandmother’s recipes. You need to offer them other ways to get to know you. The menu is still the heart of a restaurant website, but you can also use this platform to show off your personality. Share a short bio, explain why you opened your restaurant, and add a map to make finding your restaurant anything but a challenge.
Customer testimonials
The first thing we all want to know before going to a new restaurant: what other people are saying about it. With a review section, you can showcase your talents and let your future customers know how your past customers enjoyed the food, service, and overall experience. In addition to the credibility it will give you, these comments and reviews will help you be better identified on search engines. Google also displays the average rating of businesses, as well as the most popular local businesses.
