Digital menu for snack, shawarma and fast food in Tetouan
A snack bar in Tetouan lives on its rush hours: what counts is how many orders go out right in one hour.
Tetouan, with its white medina and Andalusian heritage, runs on students in winter and on the beaches of Martil, M'diq and Cabo Negro in summer.

In summer the beaches of Martil, M'diq and Cabo Negro draw families from Fez, Rabat, Casablanca and many Moroccans from abroad. When the crowd jumps in a single week, the waiter app and kitchen screen keep pace without training a new team.
Abdelmalek Essaadi University fills cafés and snack bars between Tetouan and Martil through the year. Pay-first at the counter and splitting the bill by item suit student budgets.
On Moghreb Tetouan match nights, at Saniat Rmel stadium or on TV, cafés are packed. Match mode sets the evening's prices and can require a minimum per table.
Service in a snack bar, shawarma place or fast food
A sandwich is cheap, so margin comes from volume and extras: cheese, fries inside the sandwich, a drink. A menu on the phone shows those options to every guest at the right price, without the cashier having to think of it.
A Moroccan snack bar often mixes two services: the counter, where guests order and pay first, and a few tables to eat in. At peak hours the queue grows in front of the till and whoever takes orders becomes the bottleneck. Every minute spent repeating "no onion, Algerian sauce" is another minute of queue.

Frequently asked questions
My venue near Tetouan mostly works in summer: is it worth it for one season?
There is no hardware to buy: the team's phones and a tablet are enough, and setup takes one evening. Reports by day and by waiter then show what the season really brought in.
What if the kitchen runs out of chicken?
Mark the ingredient as sold out: every item that uses it is greyed out on guests' phones until the next day. Nobody orders a dish you cannot serve.
Does the guest need an app to be told the order is ready?
No. They keep their order page open on the phone, and it rings when the kitchen taps "Ready". The number also shows on the counter screen if you have one.
