The online ordering setup is really flexible—we can easily create multiple menus. We have a weekday lunch special and a regular menu, and both work seamlessly. Setting up menu hours is also super convenient. Plus, we love the Chowbus loyalty program feature, and we're excited to explore more creative ways to use it in the future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Chowbus POS? There's no KDS, so we're limited to using the kitchen printer, which can be a bit inconvenient at times.

Chowbus offers a comprehensive set of features, and they’re always updating quickly to stay current. The online ordering system is highly customizable, which fits our needs perfectly.

Restaurant Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/24/2024 "This POS company truly offers the best service" 5/5 What do you like best about Chowbus POS? Chowbus’s service has been exceptional. We’re a new restaurant, and from the moment we signed up, they helped us check our network setup to ensure full coverage once the store was ready. They even sent a team for on-site installation and training, staying for two to three days to make sure all our staff were comfortable using the system. For the online ordering website, we were able to work directly with a specialist to customize it. We’re really satisfied with the experience! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GM Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/20/2024 "The Free Restaurant Website is a Huge Bonus" 5/5 What do you like best about Chowbus POS? What I love most about Chowbus POS is the free website they offer for our restaurant. It makes it easier for customers to place online orders, and we've seen a noticeable increase in them. The site is beautifully designed, which helps with our branding, and we've also used it to share franchise info so other restaurant owners can easily get in touch with us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Chowbus POS? One thing I wish Chowbus POS offered is the option for customers to pay in-store for online orders. Currently, there's a risk of disputes with online payments, so having the flexibility for offline payment would be a great addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Chowbus POS solving and how is that benefiting you? Chowbus POS has solved several issues for us by offering a highly versatile system. The kiosks make in-store ordering for to-go customers a breeze, while online ordering simplifies managing web orders.

Restaurant owner Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/26/2024 "Chowbus POS: A Game-Changer for Our Restaurant" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Chowbus POS? As a restaurant owner who's been in business for over ten years, I had been using an old-fashioned restaurant computer system for most of that time. After a lot of hesitation, I finally made the switch to Chowbus’ modern POS system, and I have to say, it’s been a total game-changer. At first, I was worried that I might struggle with the new technology, especially using iPads since I’m not that tech-savvy. But honestly, the system is so simple and user-friendly, I had no issues at all. With my old system, I had to remember different operation paths, like handling dine-in and takeout orders separately, and it was easy to make mistakes. Now, with Chowbus, everything is streamlined, and there’s no need to memorize complicated steps. It’s incredibly easy to learn, and even new staff pick it up without much training. It’s made running the restaurant so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Chowbus POS? One thing I dislike about Chowbus POS is that the font size could be larger. The screen is smaller than what we used before, and sometimes I need to put on my glasses to see clearly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Chowbus POS solving and how is that benefiting you? Chowbus has provided us with a complete product solution. We do a lot of business with our nearby neighborhood, so we have a high volume of online and call-in orders, along with many regular customers. Chowbus helped us design a website for free, and now we can take orders directly from Google Maps. Handling call-in orders is much easier too—we don't have to manually input phone numbers, and we can leave notes for regulars and see their previous orders to help them order faster. In-store customers can place orders directly on the tablet and even sign up for memberships themselves to enjoy our member pricing. Everything has become so much more convenient, and it’s made my life easier, saving me a lot of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
