EPOS for your business
EPOS till system for tea rooms
A tea room (or tearoom) needs a till built around tables, not a queue. With GofoodPOS each table keeps its own open bill, an afternoon tea for two goes through as one item with the sandwiches, scones and teas chosen, and guests can book their table online before they come.
What gets in the way
Who had what at table 6?
Guests sit for an hour, add another pot of tea and a slice of Victoria sponge, then ask for the bill. On paper pads, things get missed.
Afternoon tea is fiddly to take
Two sets, one gluten-free, one swaps the egg sandwiches, three different teas. Each change has to reach the kitchen exactly as asked.
Saturdays are full by 11
Weekend walk-ins get turned away while the phone rings with people asking if there’s a table at three.
Allergy questions at every table
Staff check the cake label in the kitchen for every guest who asks about nuts or gluten.
How GofoodPOS makes it easier
A table plan with open bills
Tap the table, add the extra scone, and the bill builds up as they go. A table timer shows who has been sitting longest, and payment can be split between cash and card.
How it worksAfternoon tea on one ticket
Set the afternoon tea up once with its choices. The kitchen ticket lists every swap and every tea, so the stand comes out right.
How it worksTables booked online
Guests book a time slot from your website, with the number of tables you allow, and get a reminder before they come.
How it worksAllergens on every cake
Tag the 14 UK allergens plus vegan and vegetarian on each item, so staff and guests can see them on the menu straight away.

Questions owners ask
What is the best EPOS till system for a tea room?
One built for table service: a table plan with open bills, set menus like afternoon tea with choices, allergen tags and online table bookings. GofoodPOS does all of these on an Android tablet or Windows till.
Can guests book an afternoon tea online?
Yes. They pick a time slot from your website, you set how many tables are available, and they get a reminder before their visit.
Can guests order from the table with a QR code?
Yes, if you want it. A QR code on each table lets guests order another pot of tea from their phone and pay there or at the counter. Many tea rooms keep table service and use QR for busy weekends.
Do I need a new card machine?
No. Keep your own card machine; the till records card payments taken on it alongside cash.
