We are a small van that serves coffee, milkshakes, soft drink, nachos, burgers, chips etc...
i am not sure if i should use Square retail or Restaurant.
which would be more beneficial for a food van?
Thanks
Hi @BeckShep! 👋
If you're mainly selling food & beverage items, and don't require advanced inventory management, Square for Restaurants is likely the most suitable choice for your business operations.
Square for Restaurants is specifically designed for food service businesses - including food trucks - and offers features tailored to your industry needs such as:
- Menu creation and management optimised for food and beverage items
- Order management designed for food preparation workflows
- Tools designed specifically for quick-service food operations
- Reporting features made for the hospitality industry.
While Square for Retail provides advanced inventory tracking features, the inventory management system included with Square for Restaurants should be sufficient for your food truck's needs without the additional retail-specific functionality that may not be relevant to your business.
I recommend comparing the features included in both free and paid plans at the links below to determine which system will best suit your specific requirements:
- Square for Restaurants Features
- Square for Retail Features
If you have any specific questions about each platform, feel free to ask! 😊
