This is the first review I have ever written in my life — despite having countless reasons and opportunities to do so before. I always thought it simply wasn't worth my time. After a long search for an app to manage our café locations that would actually run well on Shopify POS, I came across the founders of POS Cafe. I have never encountered people as genuinely committed to their customers as Ad...

Awesome product and awesome service
— Brandini Toffee
Great app! Whats even better is the customer support. I literally had a small issue with the app and reached out to them. In 2 days the owner released a new version with the improvement (it wasn't a bug, just a layout thing). Thank you so much for the great app and service. Will be using this app for my business

The App Developers are top notch and extremely helpful and responsive. I highly recommend.
— Portland Coffee WV
They are awesome to work with! If you run into any issues, they are on top of it. They bend over backwards to find a resolution for you. Sounds like they have a bunch more features on the way. Cant wait to see them! Highly recommended.
— Cobbco
Hands down one of the most responsive developers on the App Store. We’ve had multiple requests/feature changes prioritized and added. Shopify alone makes it impossible for a coffee shop to run. This app solves where Shopify falls short and makes it a home run. I love Shopify but didn’t feel like it was possible to use for a coffee shop until I saw this app. We do decent traffic and need something...
— Witches Brew Coffee Co
Highly recommend this app if you are running a cafe using Shopify POS. It has made inputting orders so much easier and when paired with Fresh KDS you very easily have a fully automated ordering system, removing all those paper tickets.
— Eclipse Coffee Roasters
We tried this for a pop-up café as we needed a better solution, hand-writing dockets was getting old and Shopify POS isn’t really built for café service. Setup was straightforward, and although we ran into a small issue where the system wasn’t updating on the POS app, the support team responded quickly and resolved it within 10–15 minutes. Super happy with the service and support. We ran our first...
— Andune Coffee Studio
POS Cafe has been exceptional to work with. We have a retail store, bistro and website fulfillment business. For this reason, we opted for Shopify to be able to manage our inventory in one place. Initially, POS Cafe integrations were limited. This made promotions and running data reports difficult. We were not able to print to our kitchen printers initially either. I reached to POS Cafe and...

First and foremost, the POS Cafe app is an excellent add-on for any coffee business. We started our coffee business as a small micro-roaster selling our coffee beans on our Shopify-based website. When the time came to start selling drinks from a coffee trailer this app was the key to tying in our existing Shopify store with a fully functional POS system. We love the functionality to add modifiers...
— Burning Oaks Coffee Company
If you are on the Shopify platform and have a cafe, this app is an amazing tool for ringing in any product with modifiers. Great, timely support by the developers, they will ensure you are 100% set up and are quick to respond when you have issues/questions with shopify.. Easy to tie into your KDS or ticket printer, makes notes on orders, etc.
— Zen Donkey Farms
POS Cafe has improved my tea-ristas' and the chef’s accuracy in preparing customer orders. The app is intuitive and powerful, but what truly sets it apart is its developers who care about small businesses. After I decided to install the app, I was impressed that the developers, Adam and Carmel, reached out to schedule an onboarding call. This personal connection is rare, and it made all the diffe...
— TeaLula
We love how easy it is to make customizations to drinks. We use this in conjunction with fresh KDS. My biggest complaint is that it's next to impossible to get accurate sales data.
— Warm and Wooly
As a small family business running a deli marketplace within our retail store, we've found POS Cafe to be an invaluable tool. Its seamless integration with Shopify and robust features have significantly streamlined our operations. It works perfectly for us and the customer service is out of this world, they will help fix any issues you have or questions swiftly within a day for us even despite the...
— The Culinary Stone
This app has been a game changer for us with our cafe and restaurant. When we asked for additional capabilities, the team immediately was working on building out the changes and were in constant communication with us as they were doing the work. So responsive and willing to work with us to make this app work even better for our setting. I cannot say enough good things about this app and the team t...
— Rosemont General Store and Kitchen
This app is THE app for Cafes. The ease of setup and fully featured make this one one to write home about. You will not be dissapointed
— Strange Adventures
This app fills a need that Shopify really doesn't cover for those of us selling coffee. That alone is great. But what I have really appreciated from them is the customer service. Much like the other reviewers have mentioned, when we ran into an issue, not only were they willing to jump in and help walk us through where we had missed a setting, but they even did a quick update to the app to fix one...
— Rockin' Ruby's Records
I don't think I can fully put into words how much POS Cafe has positively impacted my business! The app itself is absolutely essential to our day-to-day operations. The POS Cafe team is very attentive and constantly making improvements. We had a small bug when we first integrated the app, and Adam responded within minutes, hopping on a call with me to get it sorted - despite a 17 hour time differe...

Excellent customer service! Developers are continually making improvements. One of the best apps out there!
