Floor plans, courses, tabs, splits, allergens, recipe costing and real-time stock — and the same 菜单 running your website, branded app, kiosk and aggregators. One 订阅 across every channel a 餐厅 actually sells through.
Most POS products grew up as a till with a card machine bolted to the side. 外送 was an afterthought. Kiosks were an acquisition. The website was a third-party plug-in. Andromeda grew up the opposite way: a platform built for venues that sell across every channel at the same time — and that start from the same 菜单, the same stock, the same report.
Floor plan, tabs, courses, allergens, service charge and splits — all on one screen. The same 菜单 also powers the website, the kiosk, the branded app and every aggregator the venue sells through.
Andromeda runs 堂食, 外卖, 外送, your own website, a branded app, a kiosk and ten-plus aggregators from one Portal. An 86 on the sea bass at 7pm takes it off every channel at once. A recipe cost update updates your margins everywhere. Tonight's covers, tomorrow's forecasts and last week's Deliveroo revenue stitch together in one report.
No UK competitor covers all six sales channels in one 订阅. That's not marketing — it's a checklist we'll go through with you on the demo.
Draw your room the way it actually is. Tables, banquettes, bar seats, terrace. Drag covers between them. See the whole floor at a glance, colour-coded by course timing — the manager always knows which table is on the edge.
Starters, mains, sides and desserts are first-class citizens. Fire each course when the table is ready. Tie sides to a main. Split fires across two KDS stations so the pass stays in sync.
Open tabs. Move them between tables. Merge groups. Split a bill by cover, by item or equal — with service charge preserved. Close to the card terminal, pay-at-table QR, cash or a tab on account.
The allergen matrix lives on the same 菜单 the server, the website and the kiosk use. When a guest declares a gluten allergy, every gluten-bearing item flags on OrderPad and on the KDS ticket. No side-sheets. No panic.
Every 菜单 item has a recipe, every recipe has a cost, every sale deducts stock. Live stock across sites. Real margin, not a guess. Wastage sheets that survive a Friday night.
Edit the 菜单 in Portal once. It propagates to the dining-room POS, OrderPad, KDS, website, branded app, kiosk and every connected aggregator within minutes. The 86 at 7pm is the 86 at 7pm on every screen.
Labour cost by day-part. Mix by channel. Service time by course. Deliveroo revenue next to 堂食 revenue. Group roll-ups for multi-site chains. Export to any accounting package — we're Xero, Sage and QuickBooks friendly.
We've migrated venues from every major POS. 菜单, modifiers, allergens, tax and recipe costings import cleanly. A lab-store configuration runs before you commit. First site typically goes live in around 30 days.

"We'd been on Lightspeed and then Toast, and both times the 堂食 and the 外送 lived on different planets. Andromeda is the first POS we've had where the floor, the website and the aggregators talk to each other. Monday morning I look at one report, not five. That's been the real unlock."
Lightspeed, Toast and Square are POS-first products that bolt 外送 and online ordering on top. Andromeda started the other way round — we were built for venues that run 堂食, 外卖, 外送, website, branded app, kiosk and aggregators in parallel. One 菜单, one Portal, one 订阅 across all six channels. That's the difference UK multi-channel operators feel on day one.
Migration is a structured 4–6 week project. Our implementation team imports your 菜单, modifiers, allergens, tax 设置 and recipe costings from the existing POS, sets up floor plans and 员工 roles, runs a lab-store configuration before you commit, and goes live with an on-site support day. First site typically goes live in around 30 days.
Servers are productive on OrderPad inside a single service — the handheld is deliberately simple. Floor managers need about half a day on the POS to cover floor plans, tabs, course fire and splits. Back-of-house 菜单 and recipe training is typically a day, usually off-site. We don't charge for training sites on your plan.
Yes — that's the point. 菜单 changes in Portal propagate to every channel in minutes. An 86 out of sea bass at 7pm takes it off the website, the kiosk and the aggregators instantly, not just the 厨房. Reports stitch every channel together: you can see tonight's covers, 外卖 订单 and Deliveroo revenue on one screen.
Master 菜单s are managed centrally in Portal and rolled out by brand or region. Each site can override price and availability within the rules head office sets. Staff, stock and reporting roll up to a group-level dashboard. We run this today across chains from three sites to 400+ — the multi-site model is not a bolt-on.
Card 支付 are Stripe-native — terminals, pay-at-table, online and kiosk all run through the same Stripe account, so reconciliation is one statement. Hardware is deliberately open: we supply a tested POS/OrderPad/KDS/kiosk bundle but we don't lock you into proprietary devices, and we don't take any 佣金 on your transactions. You pay small transparent fees, not percentages of revenue.
Servers take the order, modifiers, allergens and course timing right at the table. 订单 hit the KDS instantly. No walking to the till.
