What Our Users Say About Us

logo for bub's burgers in new orleans, louisiana

"When Bub's first opened we had to manage pick-ups as much as ordering. Yelling names, employing food runners, and even running the food ourselves before hustling back to continue cooking. It caused disruptions in service and the shouting negatively impacted guest experience. We switched to Tablesready about 6 months in and noticed immediate results. The space became less chaotic and people were able to enjoy their time at our event without being worried they would miss their order. The ability to sync it to our Square POS made the transition seamless and a no brainer to keep as part of our team moving forward."
