What Pizza Restaurants Need From a POS
Pizza restaurants have specific ordering complexity that generic POS systems struggle with. A single pizza order might involve: base selection, sauce choice, five toppings (some at extra cost), size (7"/10"/12"/14"), crust type (thin, deep pan, stuffed) and cooking notes. Multiply this across a 4-person table and you need a POS that captures customisation clearly and communicates it accurately to the kitchen.
- Variants and modifiers — size, base, crust, topping add-ons with individual pricing
- Build-your-own pizza support — configurable topping selections with per-topping pricing
- Kitchen Display System — critical for pizza kitchens where orders need to be read at speed
- Delivery tracking — collection, in-house delivery, and third-party delivery hand-off
- Allergen labels — gluten (wheat flour), milk (cheese), eggs (many sauces) — all 14 Natasha's Law allergens
Pizza Modifier and Variant System in Bill Feeds
Bill Feeds' variant and modifier system is built for exactly the complexity of a pizza menu. For each pizza on your menu, you can define:
- Size variants — 7" Personal / 10" Small / 12" Medium / 14" Large — each with its own base price
- Crust modifier — Thin / Classic / Deep Pan / Stuffed Crust (+£2.50) — selectable per order with price uplifts
- Sauce modifier — Tomato / BBQ / White / Pesto — included or at extra cost
- Toppings — define a list of toppings, each with a per-topping price; staff select up to N included, then charge for extras
Every customisation appears in the order summary and fires to the KDS screen in a clean, readable format. The kitchen sees exactly what to make — no squinting at handwritten paper dockets.
Delivery Management for Pizza Shops
UK pizza takeaways handle both collection and delivery orders simultaneously. Bill Feeds' takeaway flow manages this with:
- Order type selection at the start of each order: collection or delivery
- Customer name and phone number capture for delivery orders
- Delivery address notes on the order receipt
- Takeaway Status Display screen — shows collection customers when their order is ready
- Estimated collection time display (manual input per order)
Allergen Labels for Pizza: A Legal Requirement
UK pizza restaurants must display allergen information for all menu items under Natasha's Law. Common allergens in pizza include celery (some sauces), cereals containing gluten (wheat flour base), eggs (some sauces), fish (anchovies), milk (mozzarella, parmesan, cream), molluscs (seafood pizza), sulphur dioxide (some processed meats) and tree nuts (pesto).
Bill Feeds includes all 14 allergen labels in the menu builder. Staff see allergen information on the POS screen and customers see it on QR menus. This is built-in to all plans at no extra cost.
QR Ordering for Dine-In Pizzerias
Modern artisan pizzerias increasingly operate a relaxed dine-in model where customers scan a QR code, browse the menu and order at their own pace. This removes the need for table service staff and reduces front-of-house labour costs. Bill Feeds' QR table ordering requires no app download — customers scan and order directly in their browser.
