Jeff Schmahl said:   Hey, all.....new to the site and new to the business! After years in a stuffy office job, I am taking the leap into bar ownership. A partner and I own a small tavern (40-50 seats) that will feature a small kitchen/menu as well. I am overwhelmed at all the POS options out there and the wide array of costs that come with them. All I am looking for is a single terminal with a remote kitchen printer. Nothing too fancy, but since the kitchen is being sublet, I need to be able to segment info bar sales vs. kitchen sales, etc. I am not looking to drop $5000 on a system. It is not in the budget and we simply do not need anything overly complicated. Any tips and info is welcome. Thanks!

Hi Jeff,
POS can be tricky. Often they are expensive and overly complicated. Just what you don't want or need! Below I have listed a few options. I have not personally used these, but have heard good things about all of them. As a side note, I would suggest looking at cloud based systems. Usually these offer less out of pocket expense and are good for independents because of their flexibility.
