Back office software for an independent restaurant

For an independent restaurant, Mezbano works out what each dish costs from the prices you pay, records each day’s sales, expenses and labour for the month’s profit and loss, and runs opening and closing checklists and temperature checks from a phone. Each person on your team sees only what their role allows.

What you need

  • Know what each dish costs

    Each recipe is costed from your latest delivery or your own price for each ingredient. Menu costs shows each dish’s recipe food cost against your target, and a dish with a missing price is flagged, never guessed.

  • See the month’s profit as it goes

    Enter each day’s sales from the till report, expenses with receipt photos, and labour. The profit and loss shows prime cost and profit for the month so far, and CSV files go to your accountant.

  • Keep food-safety records

    Start from ready-made opening and closing checklists and food-safety temperature checks. A reading out of range needs a corrective action, and Floor records prints or downloads what an inspector asks for.

  • Give each person the right access

    Invite your team by email as members, admins or owners. Members run checklists and enter the current day’s work, and cannot see the profit and loss, Menu costs or Close the month.

Modules, in order

The modules that matter most to a business like yours, most important first.

  1. Costing

    Know what each dish costs at today’s prices before you set or change its menu price.

  2. Finance

    One store’s sales, costs and monthly profit and loss, with CSV files for your accountant.

  3. Floor

    Start from ready-made opening and closing checklists and food-safety temperature checks, with records ready when the inspector visits.

How stores and the brand share data

An independent restaurant is one account with one brand and one store, so its recipes, prices and records are its own, and no other brand can see them. Mezbano support can open a store to help, and every change is recorded under the person who made it.

Questions owners ask

Can I use Mezbano for just one restaurant?

Yes. An independent restaurant is one store under its own brand. When you are ready for more stores, the Mezbano team sets them up with you.

Will my staff see our profit?

No. Members run checklists and enter the current day’s sales, expenses and hours, but cannot see the profit and loss, Menu costs or Close the month. Owners and admins see them.

Do I need a POS integration?

No. Each day you copy each sales channel’s total from its end-of-day report, so Mezbano does not depend on which till you use.

What Mezbano does not do

  • Point-of-sale integrations: daily sales are entered from each channel’s end-of-day report.
  • Inventory counts.
  • Staff scheduling, time clocks or paying staff.
  • App-store apps: Mezbano runs in the browser and can be added to a phone’s home screen.
