Bars and pubs are vibrant venues where food, drinks, and entertainment come together. To thrive in this fast-paced and competitive environment, operators need tools that streamline operations, enhance customer experiences, and boost profitability. Aldelo Express offers multiple flexible and efficient point of sale (POS) solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of modern bars and pubs.
1. Efficient Order Management
At the heart of a bar or pub is the ability to quickly process orders, payments, and serve customers. Aldelo Express allows staff to handle high volumes of orders seamlessly. The intuitive POS interface supports split tabs, quick recall and reorder, and QR code digital payments, ensuring guests have the flexibility they need.
The system also supports complex drink orders with customizable modifiers. Bartenders can easily handle special requests and preferences, such as “extra lime” or “light ice,” ensuring every drink meets the customer’s expectations.

2. Customer-Facing Displays for More Speed and Less Waste
In the loud and bustling environment of a bar or pub, clear communication between staff and customers is essential for order accuracy. Aldelo Express supports customer-facing displays that provide a visual confirmation of each order and transaction, reducing misunderstandings and waste, and ensuring order accuracy and efficiency, even when verbal communication is challenging.
With these screens, guests can see their orders, pricing, and any applied discounts in real-time before completing their transaction at the point of sale. This visual-based approach enhances customer confidence and speeds up service, particularly in high-energy settings where music, conversations, and background noise make traditional interactions more difficult. Additionally, businesses can utilize the displays to showcase promotions, happy hour specials, and upcoming events, maximizing marketing opportunities with every order.

3. Kitchen Display Systems (KDS) for Timely and Accurate Service
In fast-paced bar and pub environments, seamless communication between front-of-house and kitchen staff is essential for smooth operations. Aldelo Express integrates with Kitchen Display Systems (KDS), eliminating paper tickets and replacing them with digital screens that instantly receive and organize orders.
With KDS, bartenders and kitchen staff can easily manage multiple drink and food orders at once. Orders are color-coded based on wait times, helping staff prioritize preparation and ensure timely service. This streamlined approach reduces errors, prevents lost tickets, and keeps operations running efficiently, even during peak hours. Whether handling appetizers, entrées, or complex cocktail orders, KDS enhances order accuracy and speeds up service, improving the overall customer experience.
4. Integrated Payments and Tabs
Aldelo Express streamlines payment processes by supporting multiple payment options, including Masa+ QR Code Fast Pay and digital wallets. Customers can open and close tabs effortlessly, and staff can transfer tabs between tables or terminals with ease.
For added security, the QR Code Fast Pay feature eliminates the need for customers to hand over credit cards, offering a contactless and secure payment experience.

Bars and pubs thrive on promotions like happy hours, drink specials, and loyalty programs. Aldelo Express allows operators to set up time-sensitive discounts and track promotional success through detailed back-office reporting that is easily accessed anytime, from any web-enabled device.
Loyalty programs can be seamlessly integrated through Masa+, encouraging repeat visits and enhancing customer relationships. Digital gift cards are another great way to attract new customers while providing existing patrons with a convenient gift option.

6. Kiosk and Handheld POS Devices
To further streamline operations, Aldelo Express supports Android handheld POS devices and self-service kiosks. Handheld POS devices enable staff to take orders directly from customers at their tables or while they wait at the bar. This reduces wait times and enhances the overall customer experience.
Self-service kiosks can be set up for food orders, freeing staff to focus on preparing drinks and managing service during busy periods. Letting customers drive their ordering experience helps reduce long wait times in busy, loud, or crowded environments, while image-based kiosk digital menus help streamline this process.
7. AI Facial Recognition Login
Bars and pubs often experience high employee turnover and fast-paced environments, making secure and efficient access to the POS system essential. Aldelo Express offers AI-powered Facial Recognition Login, a cutting-edge feature that speeds up login times and eliminates the need for PINs or swipe cards.
With just a glance, employees can securely access the POS system, reducing login time and minimizing disruptions during peak service hours. This advanced technology also enhances security by preventing unauthorized access and ensuring accurate tracking of employee activities. Operators gain peace of mind knowing their system is protected, while staff enjoy a seamless and efficient login experience.
