Commonly Take Out & Dine In are two known Order types in food service. Small stores often have one order type. Our system gives users to define custom order types.
Take Out orders is also known as Quick service. Guests pay bills before food is served. Cashiers stand behind the cash registers, customers approach them, create orders, and the ticket is closed immediately. In Table service, we call Dine In, servers entertain guests, assign seats, and take bills after service has been fulfilled.
