EPOS and online ordering for fish and chip takeaways
Fish and chip shops live and die by the fryer and the Friday queue. ChefSynk keeps the counter quick, sends each order to the fryer in the right sequence, and gives you your own ordering site and app for customers who would rather order ahead, with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats orders on the same till on Growth and Complete.
Built for how a fish and chip shop runs
Sizes, sides and extras
Regular or large, mushy peas or curry sauce, salt and vinegar or none: smart modifiers turn each choice into one tap, and on Growth and Complete the kitchen display shows every one, so the fryer and the counter work from the same ticket.
Fryer in sequence
On Growth and Complete, station routing sends fish, chips and sides to the fryer and the pass in the order they were taken, with colour-coded timers on each ticket. All-day counts tell the fryer how many portions of each item are coming.
Meal deals for the family
Put a family meal deal together once, such as fish, chips and drinks for the table, and it rings up the same on the till, the kiosk and your website, priced as one deal.
Order ahead online
Customers order from your own site or app in your colours, on your own domain. 0% commission. Customers pay a 50p + VAT platform fee on website and app orders. Smart status notifications by SMS, email or push tell them when their order is ready. Your own ordering site and app come with Complete, or as the £55-a-month Branded Mobile App & Website add-on.
Stock, waste and ordering
Recipe-based inventory takes fish, potatoes and oil off stock as you sell, shows wastage against what you should have used, and forecasting suggests what to order before you run low.
Delivery, tracked
Your own drivers use the driver app to take jobs, navigate and record proof of delivery, and customers follow them on a live map on your branded tracking page. On Growth and Complete, marketplace orders sit in the same queue. The driver app is an add-on at £10 a month per driver.

Questions
Can ChefSynk handle portion sizes?
Yes. Sizes are set up as options on each item, so a large cod and a regular chips are one tap each, priced correctly on the till, the kiosk and your website.
Will the fryer see website orders too?
Yes, on Growth and Complete. Website, app and counter orders all reach the kitchen display, along with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats orders, routed to the station that cooks them.
Can customers queue at a kiosk instead?
A self-order kiosk lets walk-in customers order and pay by card or contactless while your staff stay at the fryer, and its menu and prices come straight from your till.
Can I take card payments at the counter?
Yes. Stripe card payments, split bills, refunds and tipping are built into the EPOS, and it pairs with card readers, cash drawers and thermal printers.
Can I see my busiest hours?
Yes. Analytics shows sales trends by day-part, channel and category, so you can staff the fryer for the hours that need it and spot slow days early.
Can I run more than one chip shop?
Yes. Multi-store management on Complete shows every shop on one dashboard and lets you push a menu or price change to all of them at once.
Will I need to re-enter my menu on Just Eat?
No. On Growth and Complete your ChefSynk menu, prices and stock sync to Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats, and their orders arrive at the fryer with your own.
Can you set up my chip shop menu?
Yes. Send us your menu before the demo and we show it in ChefSynk with your sizes, sides and family deals in place, then move it onto your till, kiosk and website with you if you go ahead.
