Big in Restaurants
Build a more resilient business with the most important tools built into your POS. Today’s Square helps you organize all your orders — dine-in, online, and 3rd-party — and fulfill them in a flash.
In 2025 diners will demand more value. Here’s how restaurants will respond.
Wait, Square has tech that’s just for restaurants?
That’s right. Restaurants rely on tech to take more orders, to keep kitchens flowing, and for line-busting during the rush. Even better when it’s one platform that’s easy to set up and intuitive to use.
- Give your customers more ways to order — at a kiosk, a counter, online, or in line.
- Never miss a sale with offline payments.¹
Can your POS handle all the orders we get from different channels?
You see every order on one screen, so your front and back of house are always on the same page. More accurate orders mean more happy customers.
- Sync menus (even online) with inventory and 86 items when needed.
- Manage orders from third-party apps, like Uber Eats and DoorDash.
What about getting more diners in?
Our marketing tools make it easy to promote your latest menus, specials, and events, and our loyalty programs keep people coming back for more.
- Send personalized texts and emails to customers with ease.
- Start a loyalty program to turn customers into regulars.
We’re ready to expand. How can you help?
We can help you make big decisions as you grow. Your Square Dashboard has robust, real-time data, so you can make moves when they make sense.
- Open and manage owned and franchised locations.
- Expand your business with a loan from Square.²

¹Square POS requires both an internet connection and compatible hardware. Access the internet by connecting your device to Wi-Fi or a hotspot, or use cellular data. If internet access isn’t available, you can enable Square hardware to accommodate offline payments for up to 24 hours.
Offline payments are processed automatically when you reconnect your device to the internet and will be declined if you do not reconnect to the internet within 24 hours of taking your first offline payment. By enabling offline payments, you are responsible for any expired, declined, or disputed payments accepted while offline. Square is unable to provide customer contact information for payments declined while offline. Offline payments are not supported on older versions of Square Reader for contactless and chip (1st generation - v1 and v2). Click here for help identifying your contactless reader. Learn more about how to enable and use offline payments here.
