FoodPal — POS + Customer Ordering Ecosystem

A restaurant ecosystem including POS, kitchen workflow, multi-branch control and a customer-facing ordering experience.

Overview

There are many POS SaaS products in market, but most aren't friendly for fast-paced restaurant workflows. FoodPal focuses on clarity, speed and reliability.

The platform includes order & branch management, intuitive menu controls, and a customer-facing site for direct orders.

Problem

Non-user-friendly POS tools

Existing POS SaaS interfaces add friction and slow service. We designed FoodPal to minimize clicks and speed up staff actions.

Receipt printing challenges

Browser printing shows a dialog for each print — unacceptable for fast kitchens. We solved this with a React Native Android app that pairs directly with Bluetooth thermal printers.

  • • Full system architecture
  • • Frontend (Next.js)
  • • Backend (Node.js, Neon, Prisma)
  • • Mobile printing app (React Native)
  • • Payments (Stripe)
  • • Deployment & maintenance

Challenges & Decisions

Receipt Printing

A browser will always show the native print dialog. For a fast kitchen workflow we built a dedicated Android app that pairs with printers and prints silently after permission.

Multi-Branch Operations

Branch level controls, role-based staff access, and centralized reports.

Discovery

Understand staff pain points in service and printing.

Planning

Offline-first printing flow, APIs & schema design.

Build

Implementation: Next.js frontend, Node APIs, React Native printer app.
