About the Gospoda u Olejorzy restaurant
Gospoda u Olejorzy is located on the Zgorzelisko glade, at the top of the Małe Ciche ski station. It is one of the most beautiful viewpoints over the whole panorama from the High Tatras to the Western Tatras.
The Małe Ciche ski station has been in operation since 2006 and is one of the most modern structures of its kind in Poland. Every winter it attracts crowds of skiers, for whom the inn is the best place to have a warm and delicious lunch.
The Inn at Olejorzy is located in a classic highland wooden building with modern gastronomic equipment. The interior in highland style, friendly atmosphere, friendly and professional staff make sure that the time spent in the premises will leave customers with the best memories.
The restaurant offers hot meals as well as snacks and desserts. The well-equipped bar meets the expectations of even the most demanding customers.
Gospoda u Olejorzy is a place at the top of the Małe Ciche ski station with the most beautiful viewpoints of the entire panorama of the Tatra Mountains. For this reason, especially during the peak season, our number of guests increases year by year. However, we know that warm, home-made meals and a nice atmosphere are not everything. Nowadays, openness to new technologies is the basis of a successful business. Faster sales, more efficient waiter service, constant access to analyzes and reports are the aspects that allow us - entrepreneurs - to serve customers even more efficiently. We want to meet the needs of both guests and employees by creating an excellent gastronomic point that focuses on technology, thus maintaining the unchanged highland atmosphere.
Challenge
Improvement of the operation of the premises
When opening the restaurant, Gospoda u Olejorzy used a standard sales system that limited access to many functionalities. Without modern software, the premises had no reporting and business management capabilities, and were characterized by a limited real view of all data - including sales - less employee control and slower settlements. The previous system also did not have the option of expanding with additional modules and access to current updates. This hindered the development of the premises and limited access to advanced business analytics.
To improve the operation of the premises, it was necessary to find a way to automate all activities using one system. Support was sought for managers and owners who could control the business even away from it, which was impossible with the previous POS system. It was necessary to introduce a solution that would provide remote access to all information stored in a secure cloud, enable the creation of any reports and sales summaries, and thus improve the management of the premises in all current aspects.
Sales during the pandemic
The pandemic was a difficult time for the catering industry. Gospoda u Olejorzy was looking for a solution that would help it reach customers despite the restrictions in force. They were looking for tools that would allow the transition from traditional sales and customer service to non-contact service and execution of takeaway orders.
In addition, it was important that the introduced solution also changed the way of accepting and describing orders. Such a tool should facilitate their receipt and execution in the kitchen, by assigning numbers to orders. The kitchen should know what number it issues for the dispenser, and the dispenser should be easily located by the number of a specific customer.
Accelerating guest service
Due to the increased traffic, when the situation returned to normal after the pandemic, they were looking for a solution that would improve both the receipt of orders and the flow of information between waiters and the room and the kitchen. The challenge turned out to be the current, time-consuming work system for waiters. They were obliged to manually enter data into the POS each time and then forward orders to the kitchen. This process significantly slowed down the service - extending the time of individual orders and exposing the staff to many unnecessary errors.
The restaurant also wanted , to provide guests with the ability to browse the entire menu directly on their smartphones, which would provide the convenience that today's consumer expects.
It was also important to be able to manage the menu more flexibly. The restaurant needed both the ability to receive all changes on an ongoing basis and to freely configure the menu. This would not only help improve the introduction of new products, but also save on printing new paper cards.
Faster and automated warehouse management
Due to its location, Gospoda u Olejorzy had difficulties in quickly replenishing inventory. Therefore, the place needed a tool that would improve the management of goods and warehouse.
A solution was sought, which would allow it to be managed comprehensively - from ongoing inventory control, to appropriate planningof purchases of the most necessary goods in advance. Additionally, the solution sought should also support the process of calculating FoodCost, i.e. the costs of producing goods and applying margins, and facilitate the control of expenses through access to reports and analyzes regarding the consumption of individual raw materials.
Solution
Taking into account the above challenges, we decided to introduce innovative tools that effectively responded to the needs of Gospoda u Olejorzy.

The investment in GoPOS has allowed Gospoda u Olejorzy to gain many business-supporting functionalities. The introduced solutions have facilitated the management of the premises. Currently, thanks to the system, owners and people managers generate analyzes and reports for any selected period and constantly monitor sales in the restaurant, which speeds up settlements and purchasing decisions. Managers also control their employees more easily. They have an ongoing overview of who among the staff is currently working, as well as when people check in and out of work. The owners fully manage the catering point even far away from it, using only Internet access and any personal device.
Additionally, software sales has improved the entire process of handling orders, and the time of entering them into the system has been significantly shortened and can be done in just 3 steps. Thanks to this, the waiter - Runner is able to move to customer service even faster and deliver drinks ordered by guests, directly to their tables. This brings benefits both to the premises by increasing the turnover on the account, as customers can order more, and to benefits to the customers by increasing their satisfaction due to the quick execution of the order.
The GoPOS system also influenced the staff's work order by assigning waiters to serve selected tables, thanks to which each of them can ensure the highest quality of their services and organize their working time more reliably. The use of the GoPOS system does not require long-term implementations, it is simple and intuitive, and new employees can start working with it immediately.
GoOrder with E-menu, as support for self-service and takeaway orders
In order to survive the pandemic period, Gospoda decided to use GoOrder, its own order processing platform, fully integrated with the GoPOS system. It allowed for maintaining sales during the pandemic, and currently it is an additional support for order processing. GoOrder has automated the flow of information, enabling its collection in one place, directly on the POS screen.
Customers of Gospoda u Olejorzy can simply place an order directly via dedicated online store - using any device with Internet access. This allows you to conveniently and contactlessly orderyour favorite menu items.
When the restrictions related to the pandemic were lifted and the restaurant returned for on-site service, Gospoda u Olejorzy decided to abandon paper versions of its menu and replace it with an electronic one. E-menu - innovative QR codes introduced placed on tables which, after scanning, allow convenient viewing of the restaurant's menu directly from customers' smartphones.
The system shows the inn's full menu along with additions to individual items, which motivates guests to place larger orders. The virtual menu allows you to make quick modifications to the menu and personalize it in terms of appearance by placing photos and descriptions of individual dishes, as well as assigning them to appropriate categories. Thanks to this, the restaurant's menu has become even more transparent. The E-menu also allowed us to save money because the Gospoda does not have to worry about printing a paper menu each time.
GoOrder with E-menu is the perfect solution for our restaurant. At the beginning, it supported our premises during the pandemic, which allowed us to quickly switch to self-service sales, and now it continues to facilitate customer service. When switching from classic table menus to E-menu, we did not expect that it would improve the operation of the premises so much and, above all, that it would be positively received by customers. This is a huge convenience and, importantly, speeds up the execution of orders.
Mobile Waiter, as support for service and order fulfillment in the premises
The solution influencing the quality of work and shorter service was Mobile Waiters. In addition to the main POS station, Gospoda u Olejorzy also has 4 positions of Mobile Waiters. Additionally, stationary POS, as well as all waiter tablets have integration with the eService payment system. This ensures quick service all payments, streamlines the transaction process and eliminates billing errors.
Employees were equipped with tablets with the GoPOS sales system, which allowed to exclude the need to accept orders in the traditional way - on pieces of paper The software enabled simple and convenient collection of orders directly at customers' tables and forwarding them to the kitchen in just a few clicks. Thanks to this, waiters do not have to run to a stationary POS station and enter order information into the system each time. The Mobile Waiter shortened the order acceptance process to one step, i.e. entering data on the tablet. This solution also works the other way around, automatically sending information about the status of the prepared dish to the waiter's tablet. This makes communication with the kitchen even more efficient.
The introduced tool means that staff can serve a larger number of consumers - in a shorter time, which results in a higher table turnover in the restaurant and, ultimately, an increase in sales.
GoStock - support for better management of purchased goods
The GoStock warehouse system has improved the control of stock levels and eliminating any shortages on time. By receiving notifications about products that are not selling, management raw materials is now handled precisely, and the premises - even due to its location - are able to provide the appropriate amount of goods in advance.
In addition, Gospoda u Olejorzy now has constant access to analyzes and detailed purchase and delivery reports - from any device with Internet access. Supervises its warehouses on an ongoing basis and easily calculates FoodCost. All this supports purchasing decisions. GoStock also contributed to greater savings, because it reduced the incidence of situations in which the premises had expired or unprofitable goods.
Results

Thanks to reports on staff work - the manager settles employees faster, saving money up to 10 hours per month. The system also generates analyzes with the necessary information in the form of summaries and charts in a few seconds, which allowed the time necessary to prepare such data to be reduced by 42%.
