At Empanada Mama, Snackpass helped us redefine quick service, turning our busiest hours into our best.

The Challenge

In the fast-paced environment of New York City, Empanada Mama, faced the challenge of efficiently managing customer orders, especially during peak times. "Running a busy restaurant like ours and dealing with customer orders was overwhelming," Raphael recounts. The need for a solution that could both streamline the ordering process and alleviate the pressure on staff was apparent.

The Solution

  • Efficient Self-Service: Empanada Mama introduced Snackpass kiosks, enabling customers to place orders independently, a move that Raphael notes "keeps our employees focused on what they do best – preparing delicious empanadas.”

  • Enhanced Customer Experience: The kiosks provided clear instructions for ordering, leading to faster service and reduced wait times. "Customers receive notifications and know exactly when their order is ready," Raphael adds.

  • 24/7 Service Capability: The kiosks acted like additional cashiers, proving valuable for a 24-hour operation like Empanada Mama.
