Digital menu for snack, shawarma and fast food in Dakhla
In Dakhla, the snack bar is the place for a quick lunch and a late dinner, and the queue always forms at the same hour.
On its peninsula facing the lagoon, Dakhla lives off the wind, the sea and kitesurfing. Fishermen, travellers from around the world and business delegations share its tables.

The almost constant wind makes the lagoon a top kitesurf spot, and riders come from all over Europe. An English menu, with allergens and the Wi-Fi in one tap, is the baseline for these guests.
After a session on the water, riders want to eat fast, often still in their gear. At the counter they order on their phone, pay first and get a ring when it is ready, without standing at the till.
Many guests stay in camps and hotels around the lagoon, far from the centre. A takeaway link shared on WhatsApp lets them order before they set off and pay when they pass by.
Service in a snack bar, shawarma place or fast food
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.
In the kitchen, the griddle, the spit and the fryer all run at once. Paper tickets get mixed up, an option like "no harissa" is hard to read, and a takeaway order ends up under an eat-in one. A kitchen screen showing each ticket with its options, in order and with its waiting time, prevents these mistakes.

Frequently asked questions
My foreign guests pay by card: does Tablilo take a commission?
No. Guests pay cash, on your own card terminal or through your own online payment account. The money goes straight to you, and Tablilo takes no commission.
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.
Can I keep the till and pay-first?
Yes. At the counter, the order only goes to the kitchen once it is paid at the till. At tables you can keep payment at the end as usual.
