Restaurants & Cafes
Full tables, clear accounts
Restaurants operate on razor-thin margins where every plate, every shift, and every supplier invoice matters. Inflo brings your point of sale, kitchen inventory, staff scheduling, and accounting together so you spend less time on paperwork and more time delighting guests. Whether you run a single cafe or a chain of locations, every transaction is tracked, every ingredient is counted, and every dollar is accounted for in real time.
Problems we solve
We know the daily challenges in your industry. Inflo solves them for you.
Food cost spiraling out of control
Inflo links every menu item to a recipe with precise ingredient quantities and costs. When supplier prices change, your food cost percentages update automatically. You see exactly which dishes are profitable and which ones are eating into your margins.
Inventory shrinkage and waste
Track ingredients from delivery to plate. Every sale deducts ingredients via recipes, and physical counts can be compared against theoretical stock to identify waste, theft, or portioning issues at the ingredient level.
Slow table turns during rush hours
The POS is built for speed with table maps, course sequencing, and kitchen display integration. Servers can fire courses, split checks, and process payments tableside so tables turn faster without rushing the guest experience.
Managing multiple locations blindly
Consolidated dashboards show revenue, inventory levels, and labor costs across all locations in real time. Drill into any branch to see granular metrics, or view the entire operation at a high level from a single screen.
Payroll that takes days to process
Clock-in and clock-out data feeds directly into payroll calculations. Overtime, tips, split shifts, and holiday pay are computed automatically. Generate payroll in minutes instead of days, with full audit trails.
Tax reporting nightmares
Every sale generates a tax-compliant invoice, and daily revenue is posted to the accounting ledger automatically. Monthly tax reports, including VAT summaries and fiscal filings, are generated with a single click.

How it works in your daily routine
Real scenarios of how Inflo optimizes your business operations.
Prep and opening
Before the doors open, Inflo ensures your kitchen is stocked, your team is scheduled, and your registers are ready. A calm start leads to a smooth service.
Review prep sheets
Kitchen staff checks the prep list generated from reservations and historical demand for the day.

The manager checks the shift roster, confirms coverage for all stations, and handles any last-minute swaps.
Open the registers
Starting cash is entered and the POS is activated for the day with the current menu and pricing.
Lunch and dinner service
During service, every order flows from the table to the kitchen and back with precision. Payments are processed quickly and every sale updates inventory and accounting in real time.
Take orders at the table
Servers enter orders on the POS with modifiers, allergies, and course timing. Orders route to the correct kitchen station automatically.
Kitchen prepares and fires
The kitchen display shows orders by station with timing indicators. Courses are fired when the table is ready.
Deliver and check on the table

Closing and reconciliation
End-of-day closing brings together every ticket, every payment, and every ingredient used into a clear financial picture that the owner can review from anywhere.
Close the kitchen
Final inventory counts are compared against theoretical stock to calculate daily food cost and waste.
