Full Service Restaurant POS System Designed for How You Work

Give your servers, kitchen, and guests a better experience with a POS built for table service.

Featuring table maps, seat-level ordering, a built-in Kitchen Display System, and the kind of support that picks up the phone.

Save time, save money, and keep your dining room humming with our all-in-one full service restaurant POS system.

Table Needs helps full service restaurants run a tighter front of house and a calmer back of house — all from one platform.

Run your restaurant all from one system

Full service is a balancing act: dine-in, takeout, delivery, bar orders, and everything in between.

The Table Needs Full Service Restaurant POS System brings it all together so your staff spends less time juggling screens and more time taking care of guests.

  • Accept and manage dine-in, pickup, and delivery orders in one place
  • Open tabs at the bar, assign orders to tables, adjust to your flow
  • Get your team up and running in minutes, not days
  • Commission-free online ordering for takeout and delivery built right in

Map your floors and manage tables the way your restaurant flows

Every dining room is different. Table Needs gives you full control over your floor plan so your hosts and servers see exactly what’s happening: who’s seated, who’s waiting, and which section needs attention.

  • Build custom table maps that match your layout: dining room, patio, private room, bar
  • Create service areas and assign servers to sections
  • Toggle between table view and list view depending on how your team works best
  • Open a tab first and assign it to a table later (perfect for bar-to-table transitions)
  • Seat-level ordering so servers ring in each guest’s items to the right seat, every time

Build and update menus in minutes

Seasonal specials. Happy hour pricing. A new dessert your pastry chef dreamed up last night.

With Table Needs restaurant menu design and management built right into your full service restaurant POS System, you can update your menu from any browser — no phone call to a support line, no waiting until Monday.

  • Add and remove items, adjust prices, and update descriptions instantly
  • Tag items with dietary attributes like gluten-free, vegan, or contains nuts
  • Add modifiers for temps, sides, and substitutions so servers ring in orders right the first time
  • Support variable-price items — market price fish, daily specials, whatever you need

Keep the kitchen and the dining room in perfect harmony

When your kitchen falls behind, the whole restaurant feels it. The Table Needs KDS System keeps orders organized, visible, and moving — so the expo isn’t shouting across the line and servers aren’t guessing when to fire the next course.

  • Route tickets to the right station automatically — grill, sauté, dessert, bar
  • Track in-progress orders and bump items individually as they’re plated
  • Send items or hold them at the POS so the kitchen fires courses on your timeline
  • Reopen tickets when something needs to be added or adjusted after close
  • Set KDS alerts so your team knows when a ticket has been sitting too long
  • Reduce mistakes and re-fires with clear, digital tickets that don’t get lost or smudged

Split checks, close tabs, and handle payments without the headaches

A four-top where everyone wants separate checks. A large party with a mandatory gratuity. A server who needs to reopen a closed ticket because a guest forgot to add dessert. Table Needs handles all of it without slowing down your floor.

  • Split checks by item or by balance — however the table wants it
  • Apply mandatory gratuities and service charges automatically for large parties
  • Add fixed or percentage-based charges, pre-tax or post-tax — your rules
  • Reopen closed tickets when something needs to be corrected
  • Comp or void items at the item level, with role-based permissions so you control who can do what
  • Multiple cash drawers per location with open/close sessions, pay-in/pay-out tracking, and discrepancy reporting

Keep your team accountable — without micromanaging every shift

Between servers, bartenders, bussers, hosts, and kitchen staff, you’ve got a lot of people with different roles and different levels of access. Table Needs gives you the controls you need to keep things running tight.

  • Create custom roles with granular permissions — control who can void, discount, comp, or access reports
  • PIN-based login and lock screen so staff switch in and out quickly between turns
  • Clock-in/out and break tracking built right in

24/7/365 Customer Support that Cares

  • US-based staff available 24/7. Call, text, or email anytime
  • Experienced, food-service industry support team
  • Regularly updated Help & Support Tutorials
