What a restaurant actually needs from a POS.

Every feature below is part of the venue setup — not an upsell you discover after your first weekend of service.

Table maps & courses

Your real floor plan on screen: seats, covers, course timing and table transfers, so servers stop guessing which order belongs where.

KDS for every station

Tickets fire to kitchen, grill, bar and pass in parallel with prep timers, bump, recall and all-day counts per item.

Split bills & tips

Split by seat, item or share, merge tabs, apply service charge, and route tips to the right staff on the shift report.

Modifiers & combos

Nested modifiers, allergen notes, upsell prompts, happy-hour pricing and combo rules configured without a developer.

Delivery & QR ordering

Aggregator and QR-menu orders land in the same queue as walk-ins, so the kitchen works from one ticket flow.

Offline-first service

Connection drops mid-rush and orders, printing and cash payments keep running locally, then sync when it returns.

Stock down to recipes

Recipe-level depletion, waste logging, low-stock alerts and supplier orders driven by what actually sold.

Shift & labour control

Clock-in on the terminal, break rules, void and discount audit trails per user, and labour cost against live sales.

Setup in four steps, about a week.

  1. Step 1

    Menu & floor capture

    We take your menu, modifiers, prices and floor plan and build them into the system — you don't type in hundreds of items.

  2. Step 2

    Hardware & printer routing

    Terminals, handhelds, KDS screens, kitchen and bar printers configured and routed per station.

  3. Step 3

    Dry-run service

    We run a simulated service with your team: orders, splits, voids, refunds and end-of-day close.

  4. Step 4

    Go-live on the floor

    An engineer stays through your first live rush, then support continues 24/7 with remote diagnostics.

Restaurant POS questions.

What is the best POS system for a restaurant?

For table service, the right POS is one that handles table maps, course timing, split bills and a kitchen display in one system. Codova's restaurant POS covers all four, runs offline during service, and is configured with your menu before install.

Does the restaurant POS include a kitchen display system (KDS)?

Yes. KDS screens are part of the venue setup: tickets fire per station with prep timers, bump and recall, and all-day item counts. You can also keep kitchen printers alongside the screens.

Can it split bills and handle tips?

Yes. Bills split by seat, item or an even share, tabs can be merged, service charge is configurable, and tips are attributed per staff member on the shift report.

Will the POS work if the internet goes down during service?

Yes. The terminals are offline-first: ordering, printing and cash payments continue locally and everything syncs to the cloud once the connection returns.

How long does a restaurant POS install take?

About a week for a single venue: menu and floor build, hardware and printer routing, a dry-run service with your team, then go-live with an engineer on the floor.

Do you charge per transaction?

No. Hardware and setup are one-time, software is licensed monthly per terminal, and there are no per-transaction fees on top.
