Demo

You can use Toast to manage restaurant and retail sales, process credit card payments, and coordinate kitchen orders. The system connects front-of-house registers, handheld ordering tablets, self-service kiosks, and kitchen display screens. You can track ingredient inventory, handle online ordering from third-party delivery apps, schedule employee shifts, run payroll, and distribute tips. It also includes an assistant called Toast IQ that predicts sales demand, flags inventory shortages, and reviews labor hours to keep daily food and beverage operations running smoothly.
