With industry-wide challenges such as changing guest preferences, labor shortages and unpredictable supply chains, quick service restaurants need easy-to-use technology that will help them optimize their operations and quickly deliver value. With Toast for Quick Service, QSRs can improve revenue and provide a better guest experience. Enhanced functionality from Toast’s restaurant grade hardware, Toast Mobile Order and PayTM, Kiosks, and more allow QSRs to take orders faster and more accurately, resulting in fewer comps and voids, while also increasing tips and boosting employee retention.

“Restaurants are not all one size fits all and [Toast] can adapt to any restaurant environment,” said Sara Walker, Director of People Development at Velvet Taco. “It doesn’t matter how big one of our restaurants is or how small, Toast can accommodate what our needs are for every location. Implementing [Toast] has made our overall operation a lot smoother with digital sales growing almost 80 percent and our throughput by more than 20 percent.”

“Toast has provided us with the technology we needed, back-end support we needed and it was an all-encompassing system that would work best with our restaurant,” said E’leece Miner, Co-founder & General Manager of Herb and Beet. “With so many moving parts and so many stations, solutions like the Kitchen Display Screen (KDS) are huge in the way we organize our kitchen line. On average our ticket times and throughput have now reduced to five minutes or less, making our kitchen operations seamless.”

“Quick service and fast casual restaurants have exploded in popularity and their owners are turning to cloud-based platforms to better serve customers, employees and drive growth,” said Steve Fredette, president and co-founder of Toast. “Toast for Quick Service is purpose-built for casual, counter service restaurants based on their unique needs, helping them run more efficient and profitable businesses.”
