Dinerware Certifies SpeedMenu For Mobile Ordering!

Dinerware has certified the SpeedMenu mobile application to work with the latest version of Dinerware 3.0.

SpeedMenu is a smart phone application that allows customers to order drinks and food items in restaurants to their table from any smart phone that has internet access. The application serves to boost sales and customer service during high volume periods or staff shortages.

By placing an order on SpeedMenu, the order is sent to the bar or kitchen printer as a SpeedMenu order. When the drinks are made a runner simply delivers the food or order to the customers table.

Customers are able to check their current tab through their phone, re-order items in one touch, close out their tabs or even settle their tabs on a credit card through thier phone.

The results have been higher customer satisfaction, increased drink orders and higher tips for servers. The Lanai Rooftop Lounge in Austin Texas has seen tremendous results. Please follow the link for a detailed case study.

In addition, restaurants can use the SpeedMenu application to post specials to their Twitter and Facebook pages.

Currently Dinerware is the only POS aplication that works with SpeedMenu.
