Make a combo or meal deal

Sell several items together at one deal price, such as a burger, fries and a drink, as a single tile on the till.

A combo is one menu item that includes several others, such as Zinger Deal with a burger, fries and a drink. You sell it at its own price, and the till shows what it includes.

Before you begin

• The included items exist as products, see Menu Items.
• Your role needs Manage Menu Combos. See Users & Roles.

Where to find it

Add or edit the deal as a product from Restaurant → Quick Links → Menu Items (or Inventory → Products). The 🎁 Combo / Meal Deal section is near the bottom of the form.

Make a combo

1. Click Add Product and type the deal's Product Name, for example Zinger Deal.
2. Type the deal price in Sale Price. This is what the guest pays for the whole combo.
3. Tick Kitchen Item and pick its Kitchen Department, if the kitchen prepares it.
4. In Combo / Meal Deal, tick This item is a combo.
5. Type at least two letters in Search products to include… and click the item.
6. Set the Qty of each included item, for example 2 for two drinks.
7. Repeat for each item. Click ✕ to remove one.
8. Click Save & Publish.

Sell a combo at the till

1. Click the deal's tile on the POS. It has a Combo badge.
2. The Combo Deal window shows the price and what it Includes:.
3. Click Add Combo to Cart.

The bill shows the deal as Zinger Deal (Combo) with its items listed under it.

What happens in stock

The combo is sold as its own product at its own price. The included items are only shown on the bill; their stock does not change. If you need ingredients to come out of stock, give the deal a recipe, see Menu Items.

Common questions

Can the guest swap the drink? Not inside a combo. Give the drink as an option group on the deal instead, see Add options and add-ons to a menu item.

Can a combo include another combo? A combo cannot include itself. Keep deals simple: list the actual items.

Does the kitchen see what is in the deal? The KOT shows the deal's name. Make sure the kitchen knows each deal, or name it clearly, such as Deal 1: Zinger + Fries + Drink.

I turned off This item is a combo. On save, its included items are cleared and it sells as a normal product.
