Restaurant Billing Software & POS with KOT, Table and Online Orders
Lunch rush is where a restaurant POS proves itself.

What Is Restaurant Billing Software?
Restaurant billing software is the system that takes an order, sends it to the kitchen, tracks the table or parcel until it is settled and prints the final bill with the right taxes and charges. Unlike a shop counter, a restaurant bill stays open while food is being prepared, items get added or cancelled, and one table may finally pay in three parts.
Good restaurant billing software also records what happens behind the counter: which KOTs were cancelled, which discounts were given and how much raw material each dish used. That is what turns a billing machine into a tool the owner can trust at night.
- Order entry for dine-in, parcel and delivery.
- KOT routing to the right kitchen section.
- Running table bills with split and merge.
- Settlement in cash, UPI and card with day-end closing.
- Owner reports on sales, cancellations and consumption.
Designed Around a Real Restaurant Workflow
We start by watching how an order moves in your restaurant: from the captain or counter to the kitchen, back to the table and finally to billing. Every extra tap at the counter costs time during peak hours, so the billing screen shows your fast-moving items first and supports keyboard shortcuts.
Cancelled KOTs, discounts and complimentary items need a reason and the right permission. This one rule closes the most common source of revenue leakage in restaurants and gives the owner a clear daily report.
- Order taken, KOT printed, item prepared, bill printed, payment settled.
- Running table status visible to counter and captains.
- Day-end closing with cash, UPI and card tally.
Kitchen Display, Recipes and Stock Control
For larger kitchens, a Kitchen Display Screen can replace paper KOTs and show order age so delays are visible. Recipe mapping links each dish to its ingredients. When you sell 100 plates of biryani, the system knows how much rice, chicken and oil should have been used.
Comparing expected consumption with physical stock shows wastage and helps you plan purchases. Purchases, vendor bills and stock transfers between a central kitchen and outlets can be part of the same system, built on our inventory management module.
Website, QR Menu and Online Ordering
Many restaurants want a QR menu on the table and direct online orders without paying a commission on every order. We can add a mobile-friendly QR menu linked to your live POS prices, and a direct ordering page for pickup or delivery in your area.
If you also need a restaurant website with menu, photos, location and table reservations, see restaurant website development. Reservations with live capacity can use our booking system.
Multi-Outlet Restaurant Software
Chains and franchise brands need central menu and price control, outlet-wise sales, and a head-office view across all locations. We build role-based access so outlet managers see their outlet only, while owners see everything.
Each outlet can keep billing during an internet outage with offline mode, and data syncs to the central server when the connection returns.
How to Choose the Best Restaurant POS Software for Your Outlet
Start with your service style. A mess with a fixed meal and fast token billing needs very different screens from a fine-dine restaurant with captains and courses, or a cloud kitchen that never sees a guest. Ask any vendor to demo the exact flow of your busiest hour, not a generic menu.
Then check what happens when things go wrong: the internet drops, a printer jams, or a waiter cancels a KOT after the food is made. Restaurant POS software should keep billing offline, reprint to a backup printer and record every cancellation with a reason. Finally, confirm that menu prices and taxes can be changed by you without calling support.
- Demo using your own menu and your peak-hour flow.
- Offline billing and backup printer routing.
- Cancellation and discount controls with reasons.
- Menu, price and tax changes you can make yourself.
- Reports you will actually read every night.
Restaurant Billing Software vs Restaurant Management Software: Which Do You Need?
If you run a single cafe or bakery with a short menu, billing software with KOT and basic reports is often enough. Cafe and bakery billing software mainly needs quick item buttons, weight-based sweets and cakes, and a clean day-end summary.
Restaurant management software goes further: purchases, recipe costing, central kitchen transfers, staff attendance and outlet comparisons. Owners usually move to it when they open a second outlet or when food cost becomes hard to control. Because we build on the same core, you can start with restaurant billing software and add management modules later without changing systems. Staff attendance can come from our HRMS and payroll software.
Restaurant Billing Software Cost and Pricing
Software projects are quoted against our published web application packages: Web App Starter from ₹29,999 and Web App Business from ₹59,999+. A single-counter billing system with standard reports usually fits the Starter scope. Multi-branch setups, mobile apps, offline sync, hardware integration and data migration move the project into the Business scope or a custom quote. You get a fixed written quote with modules, timeline and support period before any work starts. Domain, cloud hosting, SMS/WhatsApp provider charges and payment gateway fees are paid directly to those providers and listed separately.
Restaurant Billing Software FAQs
How much does restaurant billing software cost?
A single-outlet POS with KOT, table billing and reports typically starts from our Web App Starter package at ₹29,999. Captain app, kitchen display, recipe stock and multi-outlet features are quoted based on scope.
Can waiters take orders on a mobile phone?
Yes. We build an Android captain app that sends orders straight to the kitchen printer or display.
Does it work with my existing thermal printer?
Most standard 2-inch and 3-inch thermal printers work. We test your printer model during setup and suggest a replacement only if it cannot be supported.
Can it handle Swiggy and Zomato orders?
Orders from aggregators can be entered on a dedicated order desk. Direct automatic integration depends on the platform providing API access to your account, which we check before quoting.
Will I get daily sales on WhatsApp?
Yes. A day-end summary with total sales, payment modes and top items can be sent to the owner's WhatsApp automatically.
Which is the best restaurant billing software in India?
Choose the one that fits your service style and survives your rush hour: fast order entry, reliable KOT printing, offline billing and strict cancellation controls matter more than a long feature list.
What is KOT software and does a small restaurant need it?
KOT software sends each order to the kitchen as a printed or on-screen ticket. Even a small restaurant benefits because the kitchen cooks only what was billed, which reduces missed and unbilled items.
Is there cafe and bakery billing software with weight-based billing?
Yes. Sweets, cakes and snacks sold by weight can be billed from a connected scale or by entering the weight, alongside fixed-price items like coffee and puffs.
