Restaurant Management System

An idea I had for my final year project before going with another option. It’s a lightweight system for taking orders, assigning tables, and handling payments — with the backend in Java and data in PostgreSQL.

Overview

Staff take orders and the system automatically routes items to the right place — drinks to the bar, food to the kitchen. The backend uses a clear DAO layer, with endpoints planned for tables, orders, and receipts.

Next steps

  • Build an android App for a tablet.
  • Push new orders live to bar/kitchen displays or printers.
  • Add a simple admin panel for reports, menus, and user roles.
  • Build a website that can make reservations.
