One current order queue
Give kitchen and handoff staff the same live view instead of relying on paper copies or repeated checks in Shopify Admin.
Shopify KDS for restaurants
A kitchen display system for Shopify restaurant orders.
Move online restaurant orders from Shopify to a clear, live kitchen screen so staff can see what arrived, what is being prepared, and what is ready for handoff.
The operational problem
Online orders should not create a second, disconnected kitchen.
When Shopify orders are checked on one device, copied onto paper, and called across the kitchen, the team loses a shared view of priority. A busy service makes those small handoffs expensive: a new ticket can be missed, preparation can start late, or pickup staff may promise the wrong time.
A Shopify kitchen display system creates one operational view for digital orders. Larkis KDS keeps incoming tickets current in real time, alerts staff when a new order arrives, and lets the team sort work around the service in front of them.
What changes in practice
A calmer workflow for staff and customers.
Faster awareness
Sound alerts make a new Shopify order noticeable during service without asking someone to keep refreshing a screen.
Visible preparation status
Move tickets through the workflow and keep the next action clear for everyone sharing the display.
Flexible kitchen screens
Use a phone, tablet, PC, or larger display and create extra screens for different stations or order flows.
