A self-order kiosk lets guests order independently, shortens the queue at the counter and increases your average order value. But which kiosk is the best choice for a busy restaurant in Belgium? We compare the options.
What does a self-order kiosk do for your restaurant?
A self-order kiosk is a self-service terminal where guests compose their own order and pay immediately. The order goes automatically to the kitchen or printer.
For busy restaurants, the benefits are significant:
- Fewer staff needed at the counter - Shorter waiting times, even at peak moments - Guests order at their own pace, without pressure - Average higher order value thanks to upsell suggestions - Fewer errors from verbally passing on orders
The best self-order kiosk for restaurants in Belgium: Unipage Kiosk
The Unikiosk self-order kiosk from Unipage is designed for the Belgian hospitality market. Here are the features that set it apart:
Integrated with your POS and kitchen
Orders from the kiosk go directly to the kitchen display screen or printer, exactly as with orders from the till. No intermediate step, no risk of errors or missed orders.
Allergen information per product
Belgian legislation requires allergen information to be available. The Unikiosk displays allergens per product automatically, synchronised from the POS back-office.
Smart upselling
After adding a product to the order, the kiosk suggests relevant extras: an additional sauce, a drink or a dessert. Upselling without extra staff effort.
All payment methods
Bancontact, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay and Google Pay: all methods are supported. Payment is integrated in the kiosk itself, no separate terminal needed.
Queue number system
After payment, the guest receives a queue number. The kitchen display shows which order is ready. No crowding at the counter, structured service during the rush.
Multilingual
The kiosk interface is available in Dutch, French and English. Ideal for tourist areas or businesses in border regions.
Why choose a Unipage kiosk over a standalone solution?
Standalone kiosks from external providers often require a separate management system for your menu. With Unipage, your menu, prices and allergens are managed from one central back-office. Change a price in your POS and the kiosk, online shop and digital menu board are updated simultaneously.
For busy restaurants in Belgium, the Unipage Kiosk scores best on integration, reliability and ease of use. The kiosk is natively connected to the POS and kitchen printer, displays allergen information and processes payments directly. Unlike standalone kiosks, Unipage requires no separate management environment.
