“Our staff can be on the go, around the restaurant with Square Handheld in their pockets. They’re able to take orders, take payments, be more efficient, and spend more time with the guests.”

Quick Service Restaurant
“We’re a fast-paced QSR model, so we want to be efficient wherever we can. Square has streamlined the way customers order, from pick up, to the kitchen operations - it flows really well.”

“I didn’t realise how integrated everything would be at Square. I saw Square had a wireless Kitchen Display System (KDS), so I jumped on it. We also implemented Square for Restaurants for table layouts and Square Online for online ordering and pickup. It took us two days to setup the website, complete with images and everything. It was so easy compared to other providers.”

“It goes without saying how beautiful Square hardware looks on the counter. It helps when the equipment we use looks just as stunning as the restaurant, right? Not only is it good-looking on the outside, but it’s also functional on the inside.”

Dessert Bar
“Square allows us to understand our customers better, not just what and where they shop but how consistently they come back.”

“We can simply open the Square app on our phones and assess the performance across thirty locations. We know which products are working and not working in real-time. This enables us to scale while maintaining the same level of attention to detail we had when we operated just one store.”

“It came down to cost for us. Once you’re paying for your fees subscriptions and devices, our old systems were more expensive. We did a bit of research, Square was simple and offered custom rates so it made sense and was more cost efficient to switch.”

Cocktail Bar
“Square plays a massive role in everything we do. We have a big space so using Square Terminal to take orders at the table allows us to put an order through instantly, and the bar staff can start making it before the servers even get back to the counter!”

“As we’ve grown Square’s grown with us. It’s been very easy and user friendly. And I’m not a tech person.”

“The user interface makes it so simple for us and our customers. Prior to Square, we used one of those bank EFTPOS machines with handwritten dockets. Now, we can check our stats at the end of the night just on our handheld device.”

“I honestly thought we already had a system that couldn’t be beat, but the new Square setup has proven me wrong. The handheld devices are a total game changer - sending orders straight through as they’re taken has made everything more organised and way less stressful.”

“The new Square handheld is such a big step up that my staff are literally fighting over who gets to go to the table and take the orders, they’re that enjoyable to use! Super fast, no lag at all and light in the hand. It fits perfectly in our aprons. I believe we’re probably the only Korean BBQ running this kind of table service system and by using Square to accomplish this it has really set us apart. It’s been a game changer for our team and we can’t wait to set everything up for our second restaurant!”
