At Grub24, we believe that technology should amplify the human touch, not diminish it. Far from rendering your team obsolete, modern hospitality tech—cloud-based POS, order-in kiosks, branded websites, and our all-in-one app—frees your staff from repetitive tasks, gives them deeper insights into guest needs, and elevates the service experience. Here’s how the right tech stack transforms your workforce into your greatest competitive asset.
1. Automating the Mundane So Staff Can Shine
Streamlined Order Processing
-
Cloud POS & KDS integration: Orders flow automatically from front-of-house to kitchen displays, eliminating manual entry errors and hand-written tickets.
-
Outcome: Your servers spend less time running back and forth and more time attentively engaging with guests.
Self-Service Kiosks & QR Ordering
-
Guest Empowerment: Self-ordering kiosks or QR-driven menus let patrons customize orders instantly.
-
Staff Focus: Instead of taking basic orders, your team can guide guests through specials, upsells, and personalized suggestions.
2. Real-Time Insights Fuel Proactive Service
Live Dashboards & Alerts
-
Inventory & Sales Monitoring: Your managers and floor staff see low-stock alerts and sales surges as they happen.
-
Swift Action: A server noticing a spike in cocktail orders can pre-emptively restock bar supplies, preventing delays.
Guest Profiles & Preferences
-
CRM Integration: Capture guests’ past orders, dietary notes, and loyalty status directly at checkout.
-
Personalized Interactions: Waitstaff can greet returning patrons by name, suggest their favorite dish, or offer a complimentary treat on special occasions.
3. Upskilling & Career Growth Through Tech Adoption
Training Made Easy
-
Intuitive Interfaces: Grub24’s platforms feature user-friendly layouts and guided tutorials, reducing the learning curve for new recruits.

Gamified Learning: Award digital badges or track progress in a staff leaderboard to foster friendly competition and engagement.

4. Enhancing Employee Satisfaction & Retention
Reduced Burnout
-
By offloading repetitive, low-value tasks to technology, your staff can focus on dynamic, guest-facing roles they find rewarding.
Empowered Decision-Making
-
Employees equipped with mobile tablets or handheld devices can adjust orders on the fly, check inventory, and resolve guest issues without waiting for managerial approval.
Recognition & Rewards
-
Integrations with loyalty or incentive apps let you gamify staff achievements—turning upsells or positive reviews into points redeemable for perks or bonuses.
5. Real-World Impact: A Grub24 Success Story
The Bistro on High Street installed Grub24 kiosks and mobile order-taking tablets six months ago. Results:
-
20% increase in average check size, driven by staff upsells rather than pushing unwanted add-ons.
-
30% faster table turnover during peak hours, thanks to automated order routing.
-
Employee satisfaction scores climbed by 15%, as front-of-house staff reported less stress and more meaningful guest interactions.
6. The Human-Tech Partnership
Technology alone can’t deliver memorable experiences—people do. But when you equip your team with the right tools, you unleash their creativity, hospitality instincts, and passion:
-
Empathy at Scale: Use tech to gather feedback, then empower your staff to craft genuine, heartfelt responses.
-
Consistent Quality: Automated processes ensure orders are accurate, while your team brings warmth and personalization.
-
Brand Ambassadors: Technologically empowered employees become vocal advocates, sharing efficient systems and standout service with their networks.
