Selling from the case
Bakery items sit ready in a case and get sold by the piece, the dozen, or the pound, differently from a made-to-order sandwich. The counter needs to ring both kinds of sale without treating the bakery case like an afterthought.
Quick Service · Cafe & Bakery
Freedom POS for cafes and bakeries.
Freedom POS for cafes and bakeries is a Quick Service sub-vertical built around a counter split between a bakery case and a made-to-order kitchen.
A cafe or bakery counter sells what is behind the glass as much as what is made to order. This is Quick Service built for a counter split between a case and a kitchen.

Where the work happens
What Cafe & Bakery handles that other Quick Service businesses don't.
These are the moments that make Cafe & Bakery its own business type, not just a smaller version of Quick Service.
Made-to-order alongside grab-and-go
A cafe often runs a short kitchen menu, sandwiches, soups, egg dishes, next to grab-and-go pastries. Orders need to route to production only when something actually needs to be made.
A morning-weighted rush
Cafes and bakeries often see their heaviest volume early in the day, with a different rhythm than a lunch-driven quick service concept. The counter needs to move fast for a to-go coffee and pastry order.
Standing and bulk orders
Bakeries frequently take standing or advance orders for dozens or trays ahead of pickup. Those larger orders need to be handled without disrupting the walk-up counter line.
The shared workflow
Cafe & Bakery runs on the same Quick Service workflow.
Cafe & Bakery is a sub-vertical of Quick Service, so it shares the same underlying steps, with its own moments layered on top.

Common questions
Cafe & Bakery questions, answered.
Can Freedom POS sell bakery items by the piece or by the dozen?
Item and catalog structure are part of the shared Quick Service register workflow, and how a bakery case is priced and sold, by piece, dozen, or weight, is a catalog question best discussed directly with Freedom POS, since this sub-vertical is a preview on this site.
Does a cafe menu route to the kitchen the same way as a bakery case sale?
The Produce step only applies when something needs to be made. A grab-and-go bakery sale and a made-to-order cafe item are both part of the Quick Service workflow, but only the made-to-order item needs kitchen routing.
Is Cafe & Bakery a live demo today?
No. Quick Service is the most complete v1 demo preview on this site today, and Cafe & Bakery is shown as an illustrative preview within that vertical, not a live ordering or payment system.
