Orders flow from checkout to your kitchen screen the moment they are placed. Color-coded status, timers, and real-time updates keep your team in sync on every order.
Paper order tickets get lost, misread, and create bottlenecks during a busy service. The RestroPress Kitchen Display System replaces them with a live digital screen that shows every order in real time, organized by status and updated automatically as orders progress.
Color-coded boards make it easy for kitchen staff to see which orders are fresh, in progress, ready, or queued. Efficiency metrics help you spot bottlenecks. The KDS app connects instantly by scanning a QR code from the extension settings. No printing hardware required.
Enable KDS in RestroPress settings and generate your QR code.
Open the RestroPress KDS app and scan the QR code to link it to your store.
Every new order appears on the kitchen screen in real time, color-coded by status.
