F&BosThe best restaurant POS system depends on your format and size. Petpooja and F&Bos suit most independent restaurants and growing chains, Restroworks suits large multi-country chains, Zoho POS and Vyapar suit very small outlets on a tight budget, and Odoo suits businesses that want POS inside a full ERP. Shortlist two or three and test them on your own menu.
Choosing a POS is one of the biggest technology decisions a restaurant makes. If you're new to POS, our restaurant POS system guide explains how a POS works and what an Indian restaurant needs from one. This page compares ten systems side by side.

How we compared them
We looked at what matters most to Indian restaurants: published pricing in rupees, GST handling, KOT and kitchen display, table management, Zomato and Swiggy integration, offline billing, inventory and recipe costing, CRM and loyalty, multi-outlet support and accounting integration. Where a vendor's website doesn't state something, we say so rather than guess. For a scorecard you can use in your own demos, see the 12-point POS evaluation scorecard.

How to choose between them
- Start with your format and size. A single café, a 20-outlet QSR chain and a hotel restaurant need very different systems.
- List your must-haves: aggregator integration, offline billing, kitchen display, recipe costing, payroll, multi-outlet.
- Compare three-year cost, including GST, add-on bundles, hardware, setup and integrations, not just the first-year headline price. Our guide to restaurant POS cost shows how.
- Test on your own menu with a split bill, a voided item, a GST report and a busy-hour rush.
- Check support and data export before you sign.

Frequently asked questions
Which is the best restaurant POS software in India?
There's no single best POS for every restaurant. For most independent restaurants and growing chains, Petpooja and F&Bos are strong all-round choices; Restroworks suits large multi-country chains; Zoho POS and Vyapar suit very small outlets on a tight budget; and Odoo suits businesses that want POS inside a full ERP. Shortlist two or three based on your format and test them on your own menu.
Which restaurant POS systems in India have a free plan?
As of October 2026, Zoho POS has a free plan for businesses billing up to ₹12 lakh a year, Odoo is free when POS is your only app, and Vyapar offers a free option. Most restaurant-specific POS systems, including F&Bos, Petpooja and eZee Optimus, are paid, with free demos or trials.
Which restaurant POS systems integrate with Zomato and Swiggy?
Petpooja, Restroworks, DotPe, eZee Optimus, Gofrugal, LimeTray and Zoho POS state Zomato and Swiggy integration on their websites. Odoo integrates through UrbanPiper. F&Bos has this integration on its roadmap. Always confirm whether integration covers menus and stock, not just incoming orders.
How much does a restaurant POS cost in India?
Published prices range from free plans and a few hundred rupees a month to ₹12,000–15,000 a year or more per outlet for full restaurant suites, and quote-only pricing for enterprise platforms. Add GST, hardware, setup, add-on modules and integrations to compare fairly over three years.
How did you compare these restaurant POS systems?
We checked each vendor's own website on 10 October 2026 for pricing, platforms, offline billing, aggregator integration and features, using third-party listings only to fill gaps. We build F&Bos, so we've stated its limitations as plainly as everyone else's. Prices and features change, so confirm details with each vendor.
