Coffee Shops
Coffee shops rely heavily on two factors in order to achieve success - speed of service and customer loyalty. A coffee shop point of sale system must provide the tools your business needs to excel in these areas. Restaurant Pro Express is a point of sale system designed to suit the needs of specialty coffee shops.
Fast Checkout. Customers visiting coffee shops for their morning wakeup or an afternoon jolt have only a few minutes to get back to work. The easy touch screen interface helps your servers ring up lattes, espressos and desserts in just a few seconds. Restaurant Pro Express can print coffee orders to a barista printer, ensuring the correct drinks are made with the proper modifiers. This saves time from the typical "write the order on the cup" method and organizes the shops where the order-taker calls out the drinks to the barista. Faster, streamlined operations result in faster service, shorter lines and higher profits from increased throughput. Staff will find Restaurant Pro Express an easy-to-use coffee shop pos system to keep customer lines moving.
Generate Repeat Business. Repeat customers are often more important than new clientele, as they make up the majority of business at most coffee shops. Friendly service and good coffee, tea and cuisine are key factors that keep your guests coming back for more, however, offering a few perks and some extra attention will reward repeat business. The Restaurant Pro Express coffee shop POS system has built-in customer loyalty functionality that automatically tracks perks such as bonus points, birthday rewards and frequent visitor discounts. Customers tend to spend more dollars and visit more frequently with plans such as buy ten coffees get one free or receive $1 off your next purchase if you visit within three days. You can give your customers customized loyalty cards (with your logo) to quickly identify themselves to the cashier at the POS.

Bars and Nightclubs
Bars come in many varieties - fast paced or relaxed, casual or elegant, full service with food or just drinks. A point of sale system can provide important benefits to a bar, helping to provide speedy transactions, accurate inventory and security features that ensure you're receiving the correct amount of money for each transaction. Restaurant Pro Express has the features needed to help run bars and nightclubs accurately and efficiently.
Fast Transactions with bar tax and an easy bar menu. Restaurant Pro Express has a bar tax feature that automatically reverse calculates prices to be tax-inclusive for fast change.

Coupled with the capability to alphabetize your liquor menu and manage bar tabs, Restaurant Pro Express will help your bar run more efficiently.
Accurate Inventory. Restaurant Pro Express records every drink rung up through the point of sale terminals, including which liquors were used inside of which drinks. For example, you can record that gray goose was the type of vodka used inside of a vodka martini. The built-in ingredient tracking functionality reports on how much of each liquor was used to make all of your drinks. This information can be compared to your actual liquor quantity on hand to identify over pouring or theft. Built-in buyback and comp tracking allow your bartenders to record drinks given away for legitimate reasons.
Security. Bars are fast-paced, cash rich environments. To ensure each bartender is ringing up drinks under their own name, secure employee login cards to access the POS system are available as an add-on item to one of the POS bundles. Security can be taken one step further by optionally using a separate cash drawer for each bartender on staff. Two or more cash drawers can be hooked up to the same POS terminal; each drawer will open only when the bartender assigned to the drawer is logged in. Strong security features like these in Restaurant Pro Express will help secure your cash and enable to keep control of your business.
