Nottingham cafés and restaurants
POS system for Nottingham cafés and restaurants
Nottingham has two universities, and many of its cafés and restaurants feel it: Hockley and the Lace Market are full in term time and noticeably quieter in the holidays, while West Bridgford fills up on match days at Trent Bridge and the City Ground. Café QR is a cloud POS that helps you staff to the trade you actually get: till, kitchen display, tabs and floor plan, staff rota and cash-up, with QR table ordering built in.

Part of a full POS
The till, the floor and the kitchen in one system.
- Counter till on any tablet, phone or laptop: cash with the change worked out, or card
- Waiter app, tabs, split bills and a live floor plan
- Kitchen screens by station and printed tickets
- Refunds, time clock and cash-up against your float
- Table QR and your own online page feed the same kitchen and takings
Where we are
Café QR is run from Liverpool, a couple of hours from Nottingham by train. Setup is a screen-share in UK hours, and we can visit when a venue would rather be shown in person.
01
Staff to the term, not to habit
When half your trade leaves for the summer, the rota has to change with it. Reports show sales by hour and by weekday, so you can see when the rush really starts in term time and how quiet the holidays get.
The rota shows each shift's cost from the person's hourly pay, and staff clock in and out on the till, so you can compare the wage bill with the takings day by day.
- Sales by hour and weekday
- Rota with planned wage cost
- Clocking in and out on the till
02
Hockley's cafés and bars
The independent cafés and bars of Hockley and the Lace Market keep tables busy all day. Tables keep open tabs, guests can order another drink from the QR code without queuing, and the kitchen and bar each see only their own items.
A sold-out dish disappears from the till and the QR menu together, so nobody orders the last brownie twice.
03
What it costs, plainly
The POS plan is £39 per venue, per month: the till, kitchen screen, waiter app, tabs and floor plan, table bookings, online ordering, self-order kiosk and cash-up. Order & Pay, just QR ordering and the kitchen screen, is £9.99. No setup fee, and the first month is free with no card. Pay yearly and get two months free.
We charge no platform fee or per-order commission. Stripe's card processing applies to online and table payments and is paid to Stripe.

Questions
Cafés and restaurants in Nottingham ask
Can I see when I'm busy so I can plan the rota?
Yes. Reports show sales by hour and weekday, and the rota shows each shift's planned cost, so you can staff to the trade.
Do staff clock in on the till?
Yes. Staff clock in and out on the till with breaks, and you can download a timesheet for payroll.
