Hi ggilmore! We are also a brewery taproom. Have you figured out anything that worked, or are you still doing table service? We converted from counter service to table service when we re-opened in June. Our servers walk around, enter orders, bartender prepares orders, servers go inside and picks up, delivers order, checks out people with their ipad that they carry on a strap with a shockproof case.
That worked well for the summer. All of our tables are spaced far apart, we have a host that does contact tracing, everyone wears a mask unless they are seated at their table. However, we are in the North, and now that it's getting colder, we think it may be easier if the customer ordered at the table independently. But I don't want to compromise on safety or service. Idea would be: Customer orders and pays on phone. Order prints inside. We prep the beers, deliver them. Don't need to stand out there and run cards, etc. Would still do host seating, contact tracing, bussing tables, etc. We have heaters at each table to keep customers warm.
I'm looking at these two apps, just curious if you have found anything that worked for you!
