Tapster is a CMS for smaller pubs, bars and cafes to use to create apps their customers can use to order food and drinks. 

 

The idea came about once I started to notice how many of my local pubs didn’t have a standardised way of adhering to new social distancing rules. Some would still allow customers to queue at the bar, one used Whatsapp for customers to send orders to the bar. I found flaws in both, as people got more tipsy the queues round the bar started to get less distanced and the pub that used Whatsapp required you to have a knowledge of the menu beforehand. The best method I found are apps, drinks can still be brought to the table and all the items are all shown to the customer without the need to print off disposal menus. A small pub however couldn’t develop their own, so like they do with their websites a simple CMS is what they need to develop a simple app.
