Case Study: Kerbey Lane Cafe achieves 1.5% food-cost reduction and streamlined operations with Restaurant365

Kerbey Lane Cuts Costs and Improves Efficiency

Kerbey Lane Cafe, a beloved Austin restaurant group known for seasonal, locally sourced menus, struggled with fragmented systems—POS data, inventory, and financials lived in separate places—and a manual, error-prone purchasing process with no purchase orders or delivery validation. To solve these issues they engaged Restaurant365 and its integrated restaurant management software to unify reporting and streamline inventory and ordering.

Restaurant365 implemented a single system that polls POS data into daily sales reporting, integrates directly with accounting, and provides electronic ordering with automated purchase orders, delivery validation, and vendor invoice routing to accounts payable. The unified solution cut reconciliation time, increased confidence in the numbers, sped ordering processes, and delivered measurable savings—Kerbey Lane Cafe reduced food costs by 1.5% of sales within the first six months of using Restaurant365.
