Customize your digital menu for web, tablet, and mobile.
Offer convenient pickup, curbside, and delivery options to keep orders flowing smoothly.
Choose how your kitchen receives every order.
For quick service restaurants, getting the order from the front counter, kiosk, or online ordering system to the kitchen clearly and quickly is a big deal. Clover can use traditional kitchen printers or KDS screens, depending on how your restaurant works best.
Kitchen Display Screens
Clover KDS gives your kitchen a digital way to receive and manage orders. Instead of paper tickets printing nonstop, orders appear on screen so staff can view, organize, and work tickets in a cleaner way.
- ✓ Tickets appear digitally so the kitchen is not relying only on printed paper during busy rushes.
- ✓ Great for higher-volume restaurants that want a cleaner, more organized expo or prep workflow.
- ✓ Helps staff view and manage incoming orders in real time.
- ✓ Available in 14" and 24" display sizes depending on your kitchen setup.
Network Kitchen Printer
The Star SP700 is a traditional impact kitchen printer that works well in restaurant environments. If you prefer printed tickets in the kitchen, this is a dependable option for many quick service restaurants.
- ✓ Great for kitchens that still prefer physical printed tickets.
- ✓ Simple and familiar workflow for cooks and prep staff who are used to paper tickets.
- ✓ Works well for hot kitchen environments where reliability matters.
- ✓ A good fit if you want a lower-tech kitchen workflow instead of moving fully to digital displays.
Choose between 14" and 24" Clover KDS screens.
The right display size depends on your kitchen layout, prep stations, expo area, and order volume. A smaller 14" screen may fit tighter spaces, while a 24" display can give your team more visibility during busy rushes.
We can help you decide whether KDS, printers, or both makes more sense.
Some restaurants want digital kitchen screens. Others still prefer printed tickets. Some use both depending on the station. We can help you think through your kitchen flow, order volume, and how your staff works best.
