No PC, no Windows
Everything runs in the laCafe cloud, no local server needed. One iPad or Android and the hall is running. No POS desk, no tower, no UPS.
laBoard
laBoard — a restaurant POS tablet, no PC needed
One tablet: hall map, table status, order screen. Orders from laTable tablets and laWaiter phones reach it through the laCafe cloud. No Windows PC needed. Every package has unlimited devices, so 1 laBoard, 12 laTable and 2 laWaiter cost nothing extra.
Who it's for
Cafes and choyxonas with no iiko or r_keeper and no POS PC. New openings. A small second branch.

What you get
The restaurant’s own POS tablet. Runs on the laCafe cloud, no PC required.
The whole hall on one screen
Which table is busy, who asked for the bill, where a call came from. Terrace and VIP shown separately. The cashier sees and manages it all.
Tablets and waiters connect to it
Orders from laTable, laKiosk and laWaiter reach laBoard through the cloud. QR orders arrive here too. One hub.
Reports from anywhere
Data lives in the cloud: sales, shifts and waiter reports are in the admin panel from anywhere. If a tablet breaks, sign in on another and nothing is lost.
Order screen and kitchen statuses
The cashier takes orders, adds modifiers, closes bills by cash, card or online. Statuses: sent, cooking, ready, served.
How it works
How it works
- 01
Install laBoard
An iOS or Android tablet. Create the branch in the admin panel, pair with a 6-letter code. The menu comes down from the cloud.
- 02
Lay out the hall
Brand, branch, hall, table. "Main hall 8 tables, terrace 4." Assign waiters to tables.
- 03
Connect the devices
laTable, laWaiter and laKiosk are linked to the branch and their orders reach laBoard through the cloud. No IPs, ports or settings.
- 04
Open a shift and go
Orders come in, the cashier closes them. End of day, the shift report is in the admin panel: sales, payment types, waiter performance.
Questions & answers
How much does laBoard cost?
There is no separate laBoard fee: it is part of your laCafe package. Packages start at UZS 600,000 a month (Start: 1 branch, 500 orders a month) and every package has unlimited devices. Other packages are on /pricing. You own the tablet.
Does laBoard replace iiko?
If you already run iiko or r_keeper, you do not need laBoard. Install the free laBox on the POS PC and it sets up the iikoFront plugin or the r_keeper bridge itself. laBoard is for places with no POS yet: the register in one tablet.
What happens without internet?
laBoard runs on the laCafe cloud, so the branch needs internet. A second ISP or a mobile modem as backup is a good idea. laBox for Android, which turns a tablet into the branch’s local server, is coming soon.
How many tablets and phones can connect?
No limit: every package has unlimited devices. A typical choyxona: 1 laBoard, 12 laTable, 2 laWaiter. A big restaurant: 2 laBoard (main hall and terrace), 30 laTable, 5 laWaiter.
Can I connect a receipt printer?
Receipt and kitchen printing are supported. For your specific printer model and connection, write to hello@lacafe.app and we will confirm before setup.
Which languages?
The cashier interface and menu are in Uzbek, Russian and English. Waiter calls to Telegram come in any of the three too.
