Kitchen Display System
Better Order Management Tech for Your Back Of House
Every good chef knows the best kitchens are those that have mastered communication and timing.
TouchBistro’s Kitchen Display System pairs perfectly with your existing kitchen printer to help improve your back-of-house operation. With our Kitchen Display System software in place, you’ll be able to see every ticket generated from any screen, giving you and your staff all the information you need at a glance.
Benefits
Fire Faster
Tickets appear instantly when sent from the POS with a loud, accompanying chime. With our KDS system, you’ll never miss another order in the chaos.
Manage the Whole Kitchen

Cook times for individual items can be monitored on kitchen displays and reviewed by your expo or head chef to ensure the kitchen stays moving.

FAQ

How much does the KDS cost?
