The Easter weekend is one of the busiest periods in the hospitality calendar. Longer opening hours, packed beer gardens, seasonal menus and special events all put extra pressure on your team, and your technology.

At CRS epos, we help pubs, bars, restaurants and cafes prepare for peak trading with reliable, hospitality-focused solutions that keep service moving, increase spend and reduce operational stress.

Here’s how we recommend preparing ahead of the Easter rush:

Let Customers Order on Their Terms

Busy bar areas can quickly lead to long queues and missed sales opportunities.

With self-ordering solutions, customers can browse your menu and place orders directly from their phone using a QR code or your branded app. Orders go straight to the bar or kitchen, easing pressure on staff and reducing wait times.

Beyond ordering, customers can:

Collect and redeem loyalty rewards
Access event tickets
Top up balances
Conveniently reorder
View previous transactions
Receive targeted promotions

It’s a smarter way to increase repeat visits while keeping service efficient.

Drive Higher Spend with Kiosk Ordering

Self-service kiosks are proven to increase average order value while freeing up your team to focus on hospitality.

Guests can browse, customise and pay independently, with built-in upsell prompts encouraging extras and add-ons. Many venues see significant increases in order totals once kiosks are introduced.

When not in use, kiosks also double as digital marketing screens, perfect for promoting Easter offers, live entertainment and upcoming events.

Take Orders & Payments Anywhere

During peak trading, flexibility is key.

Handheld ordering devices allow your team to take orders at the table and send them directly to the bar or kitchen in real time. Menu details, promotions and allergen information are instantly accessible, reducing mistakes and speeding up service.

Integrated card payments mean staff can complete transactions on the spot, no unnecessary trips back to the till, no delays, no bottlenecks.

Stay Flexible with Portable EPOS

If you’re running outdoor areas, pop-up bars or special Easter events, you need technology that moves with your customers.

Compact, portable EPOS devices allow you to process orders and payments anywhere on-site. With built-in connectivity, reporting and voucher redemption, you maintain full control whether you’re operating inside, outside or across multiple service points.
