Pinnacle Hospitality Systems Helps Another Broken Egg Cafe

As one of the fastest growing restaurant franchises in America, we’re starting to see “Another Broken Egg Café” pop up in locations all over the country. The Destin, Florida- based company now boasts 17 locations in 7 states. It’s easy to see why people are flocking to the Broken Egg, as the restaurant has a policy for serving only cage-free eggs, prompting praise from the Humane Society. According to the policy, the company will not serve eggs from chickens that have been locked in tiny cages so small that they cannot spread their wings. The Humane Society and community members alike support this important step against animal cruelty. The policy aligns with the restaurant’s goal to be the “world’s best breakfast, brunch and lunch café”.

Aside from its cage-free eggs, the restaurant delights customers with mouth-watering Belgian waffles, pancakes, omelets and scramblers in enough varieties to please any taste bud. With excellent food and excellent service, Another Broken Egg Café has impressed a large following. To ensure its great service, Another Broken Egg Café’s Tallahassee location has signed up to use POSitouch restaurant POS systems to manage its business functions. POSitouch restaurant POS allows servers to quickly and easily place orders to the kitchen, process credit card transactions and split multiple checks. Having this software greatly improves productivity in the kitchen and on the restaurant floor – translating to improved service and satisfied customers. Restaurant managers are able to create employee work schedules, track inventory and look up sales figures using the point of sale system to ease restaurant functions. This helpful restaurant software is available in Florida and Alabama exclusively from Pinnacle Hospitality Systems.

Pinnacle Revolutionizes Flipper’s Pizzeria

Over the years, Orlando has quickly become home to the nation’s second-largest university. In any major college city, the pizza joints are nothing short of ubiquitous. Ben Richardson, VP of Operations for Flipper’s Pizzeria, knew he had to set his pizza shop apart.

Though they opened their first Pizzeria in central Florida in 1987, Flipper’s was no exception to the rule when it came to competition. In 1995, a new chef was hired to expand the menu by adding “delicious, authentic and progressive recipes.”  Flipper’s uses only the freshest ingredients in their hand-tossed brick oven and specialty pizzas, like the Steak Diablo with fiery chipotle sauce and sirloin steak. Choose from toppings including smoked bacon, artichoke hearts, roasted peppers, Roma tomatoes, sweet or hot Italian sausage and much more. Even New Yorkers rave about Flipper’s Pizzeria!

Ben Richardson recently sat down to discuss his experience with his new restaurant POS system for the Pinnacle YouTube channel. Richardson stresses his appreciation for the superior customer service he enjoys, including on-site support. Never having used a point of sale system before, Richardson notes that the accountability provided over the use of handwritten tickets has made Flipper’s easier to manage. POSitouch has enabled the pizzeria to better compete, ensuring accuracy with customer orders which creates higher customer satisfaction overall. Flipper’s can now offer online ordering, and managers can control labor costs and track loss prevention far better than before. Richardson even notes that he loves that managers are able to go home to their families earlier thanks to the ease of collecting and analyzing a host of valuable information.
