A QR-code menu for guests
One read-only QR code for the whole restaurant opens the menu on the guest's phone. It shows allergens and sold-out dishes, and it never shows costs.
Restaurant, café and bar software: four plans from €1 a month
Four plans priced in euro for restaurants, cafés and bars. Every plan carries a digital QR-code menu. The plan sets the number of venues and accounts, and the venue settings switch on the table map and online booking.

What 4restaurants does for a restaurant, café or bar
Menu, tables, orders, stock and reports, and what each one does in practice.
Table map and online booking
The floor plan shows the current status of each table. Online booking is switched on in venue settings. Each booking takes one table at one time, and overlapping bookings on the same table are rejected.
Orders from the table to the kitchen
The waiter sends each order from the table to the kitchen. The kitchen screen shows the items for each station.
Recipes, food cost and stock
Each recipe shows its food cost per portion. Stock per ingredient is deducted when a bill is fully paid, with a low-stock list, supplier draft orders and goods receipts.
Reports by day, dish and waiter
Sales reports by day, by dish and by waiter, plus food cost for the period you choose.
Staff clock-in and clock-out
Staff clock in and clock out. These are time entries only, with no pay or overtime calculation.
Allergens and HACCP logs
The 14 EU allergens can be recorded for each dish, and HACCP logs and goods receipts are kept in the same system.
Non-fiscal bill, beside your till
The bill is non-fiscal and the software issues no fiscal receipt. It does not connect to your cash register.
From set-up to the first service
Set up the floor and the menu
Draw the rooms and tables, then enter the dishes, recipes and ingredients from the restaurant panel.
Switch on what you use
Turn on online booking and SMS in venue settings only if you need them. SMS also needs your plan to include it and your own 4notify account.
Run service from the floor
Waiters take orders at the table and send them to the kitchen, and the floor plan shows each table's status.
Review the day's sales
Check the sales reports by day, dish and waiter, and the stock levels after each fully paid bill.
Worth knowing before you start
- The restaurant platform is set up from the panel. Ask us about a specific function before you rely on it for opening day.
- There is no fiscal cash register integration and no fiscal receipt printing. Where local law requires a registered fiscal cash register, keep using it for over-the-counter sales.
- 4invoices is a separate product, and the restaurant platform does not connect to it.
- Ask us for the plan details and prices before you choose.
