Everything a busy restaurant needs, nothing it has to rent

From the first order to the Z report, every job is built in and works without a connection.

Table service

Open checks per table, rounds sent to the kitchen, guests, courses with hold and fire, seats, bar tabs, split and merge tables, and running totals on every tile.

Split bills and payments

Cash with change, card, EFT, gift cards and loyalty points. Split evenly to the cent, by item, by seat or by amount, with several payments on one check.

Professional receipts

80 mm and 58 mm thermal, A4 or Letter. Print, PDF or share, duplicates marked, guest checks, credit notes, per-guest receipts and your logo.

Kitchen display

Tickets by station, colour by waiting time, allergen badges, bold modifiers, a sound for new tickets, recall and a full screen kitchen mode.

Smart menu

Modifier groups, sizes, combos and meal deals, open-price items, barcodes and SKUs, sold out (86) in one tap and CSV import and export.

Stock and recipes

Stock goes down as you sell, recipes cost every dish, a waste log, stock counts, purchase orders and a full movement ledger.

Cash up, X and Z

Opening float, pay-ins and pay-outs, counted cash and variance, X reports during the day and a numbered Z report that locks it.

Reports that agree

Dashboard, Orders, Reports, cash up and Z report use one calculation, to the cent. Sales by item, hour, server, tax, refunds, labour and profit.

Security and audit

Manager, supervisor and worker roles, a permission matrix, PIN sign-in, manager approval, auto-lock, a recovery key and a full audit log.

Customers and loyalty

Profiles with order history, spend, visits, birthdays and allergies, quick add from the POS, and loyalty points that pay for meals.

Works anywhere in the world

Your currency and format, tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive pricing, several tax rates, service charge, cash rounding and receipts in five languages.

Data safety built in

Automatic saving on your device, a backup reminder, one-click backup and restore with preview, storage meter and archiving for old orders.

Fast at the till, calm in the kitchen, clear at close

Take orders in seconds, table by table

Tap a table, enter the guests, add items and send. Every send is a new round on the same check, so a table settles in one payment with one receipt number.

  • Search the menu or scan a barcode, then press Enter
  • Sizes, modifier groups and combos ask only what is needed
  • Discounts, comps and service charge with reasons and approval
  • Hold later courses and fire them when the table is ready

A kitchen display that keeps service moving

Tickets arrive by station with the table, server, guests, notes and allergies in plain view. Waiting-time indicators change as orders wait, so nothing gets forgotten.

  • Kitchen, bar, dessert and your own stations
  • Allergen badges on every dish, guest allergies highlighted
  • Start, ready and served with large touch buttons
  • Recall a bumped ticket and run it full screen on a tablet

Numbers you can trust, every single day

Net sales, tax, tips, refunds and payment methods match on the Dashboard, the Orders screen, Reports, the cash up and the Z report. Open tabs are never counted as sales and tips are never counted as revenue.

  • Date presets from today to all time, plus custom ranges
  • Sales by item, category, hour, weekday, server and type
  • Profit and loss with food cost, labour and waste
  • Export to CSV, Excel or PDF in one tap

  • Cash received and change in big numbers
  • Tax summary per rate, inclusive or exclusive pricing
  • Duplicates marked, credit notes for refunds
  • Your logo, return policy and thank you line

Download one file

Buy once and download Storm-Restaurant-POS.html with the illustrated user guide.

Start trading

Use the demo menu to practise, remove it in one click, add your own dishes and take your first order. Back up at the end of each day.

Own your POS instead of renting it

Cloud POS systems charge every month and stop when the internet does. Storm Restaurant POS keeps working through power and internet outages, and keeps your sales data private.

Questions restaurant owners ask

Does Storm Restaurant POS really work without internet?

Yes. It is a single file that runs in your web browser and never connects to the internet. Orders, payments, receipts, stock and reports all work offline, so internet outages do not stop service.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. You pay $350 once and keep the software. There are no subscriptions, per-device charges or commissions on your sales.

What devices does it run on?

Any computer or tablet with a modern browser: Chrome or Edge on Windows, macOS and Android, and Safari on Mac and iPad. Tablets work from 768 pixels wide, with a large touch mode for bigger buttons.

Where is my data stored and how do I back it up?

Everything is stored inside the browser on your device, never on our servers. A one-click backup downloads your whole restaurant as a file, and restore shows a preview before anything changes. The app reminds you to back up every day.

Does it work with my receipt printer?

Yes. Any 80 mm or 58 mm thermal printer, or a normal A4 or Letter printer, installed on your device works through the normal print window. A built-in printer guide and test receipt help you set the paper size and margins.

Can it split bills and take several payment methods?

Yes. Split evenly to the cent, by item, by seat or by custom amounts, and combine cash, card, EFT, gift cards and loyalty points on the same check, with per-guest receipts.

Does it handle VAT, sales tax and service charge?

Yes. Choose tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive pricing, add several tax rates, set a service charge that can be taxable, and use any currency format. Receipts show a tax summary per rate.

Is there a kitchen display?

Yes. Tickets are split by station (kitchen, bar, dessert or your own), coloured by waiting time, show allergens and notes, play a sound when they arrive and can run full screen on a tablet.

Can I control what my staff can do?

Yes. Manager, supervisor and worker roles have a permission matrix. Staff sign in with a PIN, sensitive actions such as voids, refunds and large discounts need approval, and every action is recorded in an audit log.

Does it connect to card machines or cash drawers?

Card payments are taken on your own terminal and recorded in the POS, so you can use any provider. Direct card terminal, cash drawer kick and scale integrations are not included. Keyboard-style barcode scanners work out of the box.

Can several tills share one database?

This edition keeps its data on one device and browser, which is what makes it fully offline. You can move your data to another device at any time with backup and restore.
