The POS Update Brewpubs Have Been Waiting For: Serve Up Speed with Modifiers 

In 2025’s competitive marketplace, running a successful taproom isn’t just about making great beer. Suds pair well with grub, and food has proven to be an essential revenue driver for growing breweries.  

Well-seasoned beertenders know that sometimes food can cause a speed bump in service. Luckily, Arryved’s new and improved Modifiers feature targets real brewery challenges in an intuitive, full-screen experience. That way, service stays as smooth as your crispiest pilsner! 

Food offers your brewery a competitive advantage 

It’s no secret that both costs and guest expectations continue to increase for taprooms. Boosting revenue is both a business goal and a necessity for continued growth.  

Food drives revenue by inherently boosting tab sizes:  

Food increases time spent in the taproom: If guests are hungry in a drinks-only taproom, they leave. Offering food, from bags of chips to flatbreads and burgers, keeps tables around for longer. Plus, something salty will make guests thirsty for another pint! 

Food attracts a larger crowd: Offering a variety of menu items opens your taproom to a wider variety of guests. Kids, parties, and non-drinkers feel welcome in an environment where there’s food to enjoy.  

Food elevates guest experiences: Everything about food elevates a taproom: tasty smells, happy energy, and the comfort of having food nearby all add positively to the guest experience.  

Meet the POS update fit for your servers’ appetite 

So, you’re sold on offering food. But adding new menu items must be efficient for your team and taproom.  

When menus get complex, POS modifiers can turn into a headache for staff and guests with too many clicks, confusing flows, and incomplete orders.  

Arryved POS prioritizes people. That’s why the Modifiers update is described as conversational ordering: The flexible interface allows staff to add modifications to orders in any kind of sequence. This feature makes it easier and faster for servers to input complex food orders into your POS, and results in fewer ordering errors.  

Our Modifiers update sets brewpubs up for success, driving guest obsession and your bottom line. 

Here’s what’s new with Arryved’s Modifiers update 

Arryved Modifiers’ fresh look with smarter workflows gives breweries more control, speed, and flexibility. Taprooms using Modifiers are proven to reduce errors, prevent incomplete orders, and improve the ordering experience for staff and guests across all platforms. Now your servers can customize orders or add upcharges to specific items more simply and logically. 

Here are some key Modifiers updates to swoon over:  

• Prevent incomplete orders with required modifier groups: The full-screen, color-coded modifier interface is easy to navigate at top speed for your bustling taproom. 

• Speed up service with per-item restrictions on modifiers: Limit which modifiers apply to which items. It’s safe to say you’re not adding ketchup to a t-shirt, after all! 

• Make real-time changes on the floor: Now you can kick or restore modifiers directly from Arryved Service. Save time and manage the floor from anywhere. 

• Improve order clarity: Customize modifier group display order, and add modifiers to menu items in just 2 steps. 

As with all Arryved updates, Enhanced Modifiers were battle-tested in real taprooms. 

How Arryved POS supports your food-focused brewery 

Your business runs at a fast pace, and you need a POS system that makes managing food just as seamless as managing drinks. With Arryved POS, you get the tools to handle both with ease. 

Here are some drool-worthy POS tools from Arryved: 

Venue management lets you set up distinct venues in your taproom. Decide which tables belong to each area and assign seat numbers to each spot. You can even customize each venue with specific menu items and printer settings. This means you can give patio guests buzzers to pick up their food at the bar, minimizing staff traffic.  

A KDS (kitchen display system) ensures kitchen staff get cooking as soon as an order is placed. The display projects orders for BOH staff and syncs with roaming POS devices. This speeds up food service! 

Generate revenue from online ordering. A six-pack and a pizza sound like the perfect Friday night, and you can capitalize on those to-go sales with Arryved. Set up your online store in minutes, and connect it with all of your on-premise tools.  

A taproom favorite: Easy-to-split tabs! Splitting tabs just became a lot more seamless. Create sub-tabs based on seat number, or split items between guests so checking out anyone is as easy as selecting their sub-tab and closing it out!  

Inventory management integrates with Arryved POS. Software like MarginEdge lets you track menu items by ingredient and ensures accuracy as sales are processed through your POS.  

Real-time reporting is accessible at all times. Check sales numbers anytime and anywhere. You can enter COGS on items to determine profit margins and thus make informed decisions on what stays on the menu and what may need replacing.
