Diners do not want to wait to flag down a server. They want to scan, order and get on with their meal. A QR ordering system lets them do exactly that: scan the QR on the table, browse your menu, order and pay from their own phone, with everything landing straight in your kitchen.
What is a QR ordering system?
A QR (scan-to-order) system replaces paper menus and manual order-taking with a QR code on each table. Guests scan it, your photo menu opens on their phone with no app to install, and the order goes directly to the kitchen and your F&B POS. It is the fastest way to take more orders with fewer staff.
How scan-to-order works
- The guest scans the QR code on their table.
- Your menu opens on their phone, with photos, options and customisation.
- They add items, adjust quantities and place the order.
- They pay in-app, or choose to pay at the counter.
- The order goes straight to the kitchen display and your POS.
Why restaurants switch to QR ordering
- Serve more tables with fewer staff
- Bigger orders, with easy add-ons and reorders in a tap
- Faster turns and fewer errors than handwritten tickets
- No app download, it works in any phone browser
One QR, every order type
Use the same system for dine-in, takeaway and online ordering. Orders flow into one kitchen queue and one set of reports, whether the guest is at the table or ordering ahead.
Part of your F&B platform
QR ordering plugs into the full Qtech F&B POS system, alongside self-ordering kiosks and the kitchen display, so front-of-house, kitchen and cashier stay in sync. Running a busy F&B outlet? Pair it with the F&B queue management system.
