Café 407's single register created chaos during peak hours.

Long lines made customers uncomfortable, the queue backed into the seating area, and staff couldn't keep up with demand.

Long Queues

15+ customers waiting during rush hours between classes

Space Constraints

Limited space caused crowding and discomfort for seated diners

Staff Bottleneck

One cashier handling orders, payment, and customer questions

The Solution

Ordering kiosks coupled with a new customer flow!
