American Legion Post 29 goes live with Pinnacle Hospitality Systems

Harvey W Seeds Post 29 was founded in 1919 by Miami Mayor Smith. It is the oldest American Legion Post in Florida.  Harvey’s serves both veterans and the general community. The restaurant / lounge, Harvey’s By the Bay, is open to the general public and hosts public events on various holidays.

Located inside the American Legion, Harvey’s is a laid-back sports bar with a slightly retro feel that can be morphed into a tiny dance club or live music venue. Fridays often feature local and national underground punk or indie bands. The back room offers lounging on kitschy battered couches. Saturdays, DJs spin a wide spectrum of music, from 80s to hip-hop, and even goth/industrial tunes. Pool tables offer alternative entertainment and gawking at the off-kilter art lining the walls is an event in itself. Open every day, Harvey’s has a full bar and happy hour, with cheap drinks and specials almost every night. Late night munchers can try their greasy and delicious bar food.  They installed Dinerware POS from Pinnacle Hospitality Systems to streamline their operations and help the overall execution of their business.

Pinnacle Hospitality Systems Now Offering Mobile Marketing

More customers are using smartphones, offering a strong marketing vehicle.

There’s no denying that mobile is hot – with over 270 million mobile phones in use in the U.S. and 100 billion text messages sent each month, mobile is definitely one of the most popular ways for Americans to communicate. Mobile marketing is a powerful tool for building a brand community, establishing customer relationships and delivering customer service. Pinnacle Hospitality Systems has joined the movement for mobile marketing, as our customers know the impact and we now have a tool for them with our Sundrop Loyalty Text marketing solution.

Sundrop Loyalty Text marketing allows businesses to quickly and easily capture mobile data at point of sale to build a customer database. The loyalty marketing program uses your customer’s mobile number as a replacement for plastic loyalty cards. At checkout, customers give their mobile number to the clerk who enters it into the restaurant POS system. When you are ready to send out a text campaign, Sundrop’s mobile loyalty solution automatically segments your customers based on your criteria and sends targeted messages. It’s easy to measure ROI with POS-integrated tracking that monitors the performance and revenue of every single marketing campaign.

Pinnacle Hospitality Systems has integrated POSitouch restaurant POS and Dinerware restaurant software with Sundrop to provide mobile marketing and loyalty solutions.  POSitouch is the hospitality industry’s leading POS application for restaurant table service, quick service, hotels, country clubs, delivery and stadium/arena use. The Windows based, open architecture software is incredibly easy to use, maintain and expand. Dinerware provides restaurant point of sale software solutions to the hospitality industry including upscale restaurants, cafes, nightclubs, bars, fast casual restaurants, counter service restaurants, hotels, casinos, golf courses and wineries.

For more information on how mobile marketing can help your hospitality business, call Pinnacle Hospitality Systems at 1-800-771-7100.

Taverna Opa Tampa Keeps the Party Going with Pinnacle’s POSitouch

You don’t need a passport to experience the best of Greece.  All you need is a healthy appetite for food and fun and a trip to Taverna Opa Tampa.  Taverna Opa Tampa features authentic Greek cuisine with authentic Greek hospitality.  Offering traditional Greek food and a chance to participate in a Greek table dance, replete with plate breaking and napkin tossing, Taverna Opa Tampa is the next best thing to visiting the deep blue, glittering Aegean Sea.

The family style menu serves up delicious classics pulled from Greek native and veteran restaurateur Peter Tsialiamanis’ own family recipes.  When he opened the original Taverna Opa in Hollywood, Florida in 1998, Tsialiamanis hoped to create “a gathering place for guests to celebrate the basic elements of life, good food, drink and music, enjoyed with family and friends.”  His vision has been realized over and over again, with Taverna Opa’s now appearing across the state of Florida.

The Tampa restaurant is seafront, which adds to the overall atmosphere and appeal of the rustic menu.  Guests come to enjoy items like the Pastitso, or “Greek Lasagna”, with homemade creamy béchamel or Mousaka, with layers of roasted eggplant, potatoes and ground beef.  Served family-style, a table can also order platters of dolmades, or stuffed grape leaves, traditional meat kabobs and spanakopita, spinach pie.

The food is only part of the fun, as guests can dance with Zorba dancers to a blend of Greek and middle-eastern music, which picks up tempo as the night beats on.

With many restaurants to manage, Taverna Opa needs a quality POS system.  Taverna Opa Tampa relies on Pinnacle Hospitality Systems to bring their guests the ultimate Grecian experience—from belly dancers to the festive saganaki, flaming cheese with brandy.  In a family-style restaurant like Taverna Opa Tampa, POSitouch for restaurants allows Dinerware software to set up and enter the theoretical cost of an item.

This feature helps compare costs by keeping a weekly or monthly report, promoting loss prevention and overall profitability.  For more details on how POSitouch Dinerware software can help your restaurant, or to find a POS system in Tampa, please do not hesitate to call Pinnacle at 1-800-771-7100!
