H&L POS review

H&L POS is an Australian hospitality system built for venues where a cheap app is not enough: hotels, pubs, clubs, stadiums, events and bottle shops. Its software covers front of house point of sale, the Sysnet back of house system, stock and inventory management, an Order Display Monitor for the kitchen, and dashboards with sales and tender reports you can filter and download. H&L lists over 150 integrations, including me&u for order and pay, HungryHungry for online ordering, SevenRooms for bookings and roomMaster for hotel property management, and it offers H&L Payments. Client quotes on its site come from venues in Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne. The downside is transparency: H&L does not publish prices, so you book a demo and receive a quote, and the system is heavier than a cafe or market stall needs. For a pub group or a club with a bistro and several bars, it is built for that scale.
