The Operating System For Food Halls
Purpose-built for multi-vendor complexity — unified ordering, automated rent collection, and real-time vendor settlement across every kitchen, bar, and zone.
Numbers That
Command
The Industry
One Cart.
Every
Vendor.
Traditional POS systems break when a guest wants items from 3 different stalls. Tabski was engineered for exactly this — a single unified checkout that automatically routes every item to the right kitchen, bar, or station.
Guests scan a location-aware QR at any table, patio, dog park zone, or bar. Location is automatically attached to the order — no manual entry.
One cart spans every vendor in the hall — tacos from Stall 4, cocktails from Bar B, dessert from Stall 11. No separate checkouts. No app switching.
Each item is split and fired to the correct KDS or printer in real time. No staff sorting. No ticket confusion. No items lost in the shuffle.
Central pickup, runner delivery to zones, or optional SMS order updates. Guests stay informed from tap to table.
Multi-MID Settlement
Each vendor receives funds directly to their own merchant account. Tabski handles the accounting splits automatically — operators never touch vendor money.
Item-Level Routing
Unlike order-level routing, Tabski routes at the item level. A single ticket with 5 items fires to 5 different kitchen displays simultaneously — with zero manual intervention.
Order Throttling
During concert rushes or peak hours, Tabski automatically balances kitchen load across all vendors — preventing bottlenecks before they happen, not after the damage is done.
Smart Tabs
Guests open a tab that spans every vendor in the hall. Reorder from any stall, add drinks from the bar — one tab, one close-out at the end of the night.
Mixed POS Compatibility
Vendors don't need to rip and replace. Tabski layers on top of Toast, Square, and Clover — your vendors keep their systems, you get unified ordering across all of them.
Rent That
Collects
Itself
No spreadsheets. No invoices. No chasing vendors. Tabski calculates percentage-based rent from live sales data, collects automatically, and delivers remittance reports to every vendor — without operator intervention.
Percentage-Based Collection
Set each vendor's rent as a percentage of gross sales. Tabski tracks real-time revenue and calculates the exact amount owed — automatically, every cycle.
Daily Rent Automation
Rent is calculated and remitted on a daily cycle. Operators see what they're owed before end of business. No end-of-month surprises. No disputes over numbers.
Transparent Vendor Reports
Every vendor receives a remittance report showing their gross sales, the agreed rent rate, and the exact deduction. Clean, professional, dispute-proof.
Multi-MID Direct Payouts
Vendors are paid directly to their own merchant accounts. Tabski splits revenue at the transaction level — operators never act as pass-through for vendor funds.

Operators Who
Run on
Tabski
From multi-stage entertainment complexes to apartment-integrated food halls running mixed POS ecosystems — real operations, real results.
The Challenge
- 8 kitchens and 3 bars requiring simultaneous, coordinated ticket routing
- Legacy POS couldn't handle multi-vendor carts or item-level routing
- Concert nights created massive order spikes that overwhelmed kitchens
- Dog park, patio, and lawn zones needed location-aware QR ordering
- Manual rent invoicing across all vendors was time-consuming and error-prone
Tabski Solution
- Location-aware QR ordering deployed across all venue zones
- Item-level routing to 8 kitchens + 3 bars simultaneously
- Order batching (≤2 min recommended) for large concert crowds
- Automated rent collection and daily vendor settlement via multi-MID

- Selected Tabski over GoTab — competitive on both price and features
The Challenge
- Walk-up counter congestion forming during peak rush hours

- Better item-level modifier data improving menu optimization
The Challenge
- Staff navigating long runner routes across 40+ bays and simulators
- Multiple fulfillment points with no unified order and delivery system
- F&B items and facility items (buckets of balls) needed to flow in one cart
- Ticket clutter and duplicate runner trips wasting labor
Tabski Solution
- Unique location-embedded QR code at every bay, simulator, and patio table
- One scan — venue location auto-attached to every order automatically

- Order throttling deployed during peak weekend traffic windows
The Challenge
- 3 incompatible POS ecosystems (Toast, Square, Clover) across vendor stalls
- Apartment tenants expected a seamless direct ordering experience
- Public guests required QR ordering with accurate cross-vendor routing
- No system could create a unified multi-vendor cart spanning all three platforms
Tabski Solution
- Universal ordering layer deployed on top of all 3 existing POS systems
- Tenants order via resident portal; public guests scan QR codes
- One cart spans every vendor — single payment at checkout

Tabski vs.
The Field
A POS Takes Orders.
An OS Runs the Hall.
Food halls are the fastest-growing dining format in the world — and none of them should be running on software designed for a single-vendor restaurant. Tabski was built from the ground up for multi-vendor complexity: unified carts, automated rent, item-level routing, and real-time settlement across every stall. Not bolted on as an afterthought. Engineered in from day one.
