    Ordering

    Order ahead, or from the table.

    The morning rush, without the queue out of the door.

    • Order ahead

      Customers pick a collection time from your opening hours and pay by card as they order, straight to your own Stripe account.

    • Order at the table

      A QR code on each table opens your menu. Guests pay as they order, or at the end.

    • Milks, sizes and extras

      Oat milk, an extra shot, a large: each with its own price, so the counter makes exactly what was ordered.

    • Delivery, if you do it

      Your own fee and minimum order, for the postcodes you choose. Your own team delivers.

    • Allergens on every item

      Tick which of the 14 major allergens each item contains, and customers see them before they order.

    • Looks like your cafe

      Pick one of seven styles, then your colours, lettering and a picture of each item.

    Bookings

    Brunch and afternoon tea, booked online.

    Day and night, from your booking page, your website and your Google listing.

    • Table bookings

      Guests pick a time and say how many are coming, and subba finds a table that fits.

    • Deposits

      Take a deposit for afternoon tea or a big table, straight to your own Stripe account.

    • Reminders

      Guests get a reminder before they come, with a link to change or cancel, so the table is not left empty.

    • A chat that knows your menu

      The AI chat on your website answers questions about your menu and prices, and sends people the link to order or book.

    The counter

    One screen behind the counter.

    Collection, table and phone orders together, in the order they need making.

    • A counter screen

      A private screen on any tablet, with a chime and a number for every order.

    • Sold out, in a tap

      Out of banana bread? Mark it sold out for today and nobody can order it.

    • Pause online orders

      Queue out of the door? Pause online orders for 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Tables carry on ordering.

    • Offers for quiet times

      10% off before 9am or a code for a first order, on the days and times you set.

    Your team

    A rota, timesheets and holidays.

    Everyone who works a shift, in the same place as the orders.

    • Weekly rota

      Plan who works when, and staff get an email when their shifts change. See the staff rota app.

    • Clock in and out

      Staff clock in and out from their phone. Timesheets show the hours against the rota.

    • Holidays

      Requests from their phone, and holiday that builds up from hours worked for weekend and casual staff.

    • Manager and staff logins

      A manager runs the day without seeing your billing. Staff see the orders and their own shifts.

    Insights

    See what sells, and when.

    The numbers behind every order, ready the moment you sign in.

    • Sales

      Sales day by day, with orders and the average order against the period before.

    • Best sellers

      Your most popular items, and the milks, sizes and extras people pick.

    • Busiest hours

      When the orders come in, so you can plan the rota around the rush.

    • Yesterday, by email

      Turn on a morning email with yesterday's sales, best sellers and bookings, and sales and orders against the same day the week before.

    Questions

    Before you switch.

    Does subba take a cut of my orders?

    No. subba takes no fee on any order. You pay your subba plan, and card payments go through your own Stripe account at Stripe's standard rates.

    Can customers order ahead and skip the queue?

    Yes. They order from your link for a collection time, and the order lands on your counter screen with its time and a number to call out.

    Can I take bookings for afternoon tea?

    Yes. Set it up as something people book, with its price and a deposit if you want one, alongside table bookings for brunch or lunch.

    Do I need a website?

    No. You get your own ordering and booking pages to share on Google, social media and anywhere else. If you have a website, link to them from there.

    What about allergens?

    You tick the allergens each item contains and customers see them on your menu, along with a note to speak to you about any allergy before they order.

    Serve dinner too? See subba for restaurants. Mostly collection and delivery? See subba for takeaways.
