Short answer
A QSR POS has to be fast above all: combos in two taps, order numbers, a kitchen display, and a ready board to call orders. EvronDesk adds self-order kiosks, drive-thru, delivery-app intake and offline mode, on hardware you choose, at a flat monthly price with no cut of sales.
Counter speed
The register's first screen is your best sellers. Combos open with their required choices (side, drink, size) in order, so the cashier never forgets to ask. Upsells sit right there: make it large, add a dessert. Payment takes one tap for exact cash or card, and the order is in the kitchen before the receipt finishes printing.
Order numbers and the ready board
Each order gets a number. The kitchen display shows it, the receipt shows it, and an order-ready board on any spare screen or TV shows which numbers are ready. That replaces buzzers and shouting, and customers stop crowding the counter.
Kiosks and QR ordering
A self-order kiosk handles the order while your staff handle the food. Guests take their time, look at the photos and tend to add more. A QR code on each table does the same for guests who've already sat down. Both send orders to the same kitchen screen. More on online and QR ordering.
Drive-thru
Drive-thru orders are their own order type, labelled clearly on the kitchen display. Set different prices or tax for drive-thru if you need to, and see drive-thru sales separately in reports.
Delivery without the tablet farm
Fast food lives on delivery apps. Bring foodpanda, Talabat, Uber Eats, Deliveroo and others onto the same kitchen queue through Deliverect, UrbanPiper or a direct connection, so the kitchen works one list. See delivery management.
Built for chains too
Copy the menu from one site to the next, run consolidated reports, compare ticket times between locations and move stock from a central kitchen. See multi-location.
Costs that suit thin margins
Fast food margins don't leave room for a POS that takes a percentage of each sale. EvronDesk is a flat monthly price per location, card processing stays with your own bank, and you can run it on Android tablets that cost a fraction of proprietary terminals.
Frequently asked questions
What is a QSR POS system?
A QSR (quick service restaurant) POS is designed for counter service and fast food: fast order entry, combos and upsells, order numbers, a kitchen display, and a way to call orders when they're ready. Many also support self-order kiosks and drive-thru.
What's the best POS for a fast food restaurant?
Look for speed of order entry, combos with required choices, a kitchen display with timers, a ready board, kiosk ordering and reliable offline mode. Price matters too: fast food margins are thin, so avoid systems that take a percentage of every sale.
Does EvronDesk support drive-thru?
Yes. Drive-thru is an order type with its own prices and tax if you need them, and its own label on the kitchen display so the window team can find their orders.
Can customers order at a kiosk?
Yes. Run the ordering page on a tablet stand at the counter. Orders go to the same kitchen queue as the till.
