How Food Halls Increase Revenue with Smarter Beverage Program Strategies

At the Future of Food Halls Conference, one theme kept coming up—sometimes directly, sometimes between the lines: The highest-performing food halls aren’t just driven by great food. They’re driven by smart, dynamic beverage programs. Not as an add-on. Not as a convenience. As a system.

Why Sales Tax Becomes a Problem as You Grow (And How to Fix It Before It Does)

Most operators don’t think about sales tax until something goes wrong. And when something goes wrong, it’s usually not small. It’s a notice. A penalty. A number that doesn’t quite make sense—and now you’re digging through reports trying to figure out where it came from. The frustrating part is that nothing felt broken. The business was running. Sales were coming in. The team was doing their job. But underneath it, something wasn’t keeping up.

Why Most Restaurant Menus Fail - And How to Turn Yours Into a Revenue Driver

We recently sat down with Grant Pierce, founder of Live Tap List, on Behind the Tab. On the surface, it was a conversation about digital menu boards. But underneath, it was about something much more important: How menus actually drive revenue.

How to Turn New Guests Into Regulars

Insights from a Behind the Tab conversation between Patricia Mejia and Joe Pino of Clutch. There’s a moment right after a guest leaves your restaurant that matters more than almost anything else in your business. It’s not the check total. It’s not the tip. It’s not even whether the kitchen executed perfectly. It’s what happens next.

Other Half Brewing-Scaling a Cult Brand Without Sacrificing the Guest Experience

Other Half Brewing has built one of the most recognizable brands in craft beer—known for innovation, limited releases, and taprooms that feel more like community hubs than retail spaces. But success created a new challenge. As the business expanded from a single Brooklyn location to a growing portfolio of taprooms, the team needed to deliver consistent, high-quality hospitality at scale—without slowing service or overcomplicating operations.

Craft Brewers Conference 2026: When Flat Sales Starts to Look Like Growth

Seven years in at Craft Brewers Conference, and we can tell you this year felt different. Not quieter. Just more realistic. When we first showed up as GoTab, the craft beer industry was in full-on growth mode. New markets. More volume. More everything. And if you’re honest, a lot of us (us included) were building for that version of the future.

GoZone + GoTab Integration Brings Guest Wi‑Fi Marketing and Automated Campaigns to Venue Operators

New Integration Enables Hospitality Operators to Capture Guest Data Through Wi-Fi, Automate Personalized Campaigns, and Drive Measurable Revenue.

Tim McLaughlin of GoTab named Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2026 Mid-Atlantic finalist by EY US

The program honors entrepreneurs whose innovations drive economic growth and help shape the future of business.

Boost Restaurant Efficiency with POS Systems

Boosting restaurant efficiency starts with a modern point of sale system that does far more than process transactions—it becomes the operational backbone of the business. Advanced restaurant POS platforms unify front- and back-of-house workflows, enabling faster ordering, real-time menu updates, and seamless communication with the kitchen. They also provide powerful tools for inventory management, helping operators track usage, reduce waste, and make smarter purchasing decisions. On the guest side, features like mobile ordering, flexible payment options, and personalized service insights elevate the customer experience without adding friction. By centralizing data and automating routine tasks, a reliable POS system empowers teams to work more efficiently, deliver better hospitality, and scale operations with confidence.

Master Events in Food Halls & Multi-Use Spaces

Mastering the art of events in food halls and multi-use properties requires more than just filling a calendar—it’s about thoughtfully designing experiences that bring energy, consistency, and purpose to the space. With the right mix of innovative management, strategic programming, and seamless coordination across vendors and partners, these venues can evolve into true community hubs that draw repeat visitors and sustained engagement. From curated events and seasonal activations to flexible layouts and tech-enabled operations, successful operators understand how to adapt their spaces to meet diverse audience needs while maximizing revenue potential. When done well, events become a powerful engine for foot traffic, tenant success, and long-term property value.

Food Halls as Real Estate Anchors: Trends & Impact

Food halls are emerging as powerful real estate anchors, transforming underutilized urban spaces into vibrant, high-traffic destinations that blend dining, community, and commerce. By offering a diverse mix of culinary concepts—from local upstarts to established brands—these venues attract a wide range of visitors, increasing foot traffic and extending dwell time in surrounding areas. This consistent activity not only supports neighboring businesses but also drives higher property values and accelerates investment in mixed-use developments. Beyond economics, food halls foster a sense of place, serving as social hubs where people gather, connect, and experience local culture. As developers increasingly prioritize experiential environments, food halls are playing a central role in revitalizing neighborhoods and redefining how real estate creates long-term value.

How to Fix Restaurant Staffing Problems Without Hiring More Staff

Why do restaurant teams struggle to deliver consistent hospitality? It’s not just about people. It’s about systems. In this conversation with Ryan Gromfin, we explore how better processes, clearer standards, and less operational friction lead to stronger teams and better guest experiences.

Atomic Golf Las Vegas: The Budget-Friendly Entertainment Model That Unlocked 10x More Reservations Revenue

From the beginning, Atomic Golf partnered with GoTab and REX, systems that have continued to evolve alongside the venue as it has grown and refined its model. Together, they built an operation designed to remove friction at every step, supporting higher per-guest spend while allowing guests to move seamlessly from arrival into the experience. The result is not just operational efficiency, but a shift in how guests perceive value. With an all-inclusive pricing model, guests know what they are getting upfront, eliminating confusion and reinforcing a sense of ease that matches the scale of the venue.

Inc. Names GoTab to Its 2026 List of the Fastest-Growing Private Companies in the Mid-Atlantic

Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today revealed that GoTab has been ranked No. 59 on its sixth annual Inc. Regionals: Mid-Atlantic list – the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the Mid-Atlantic. The region includes Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina.

Largest U.S. Event Dedicated to Food Hall Operations Nears Sellout

GoTab today announced that registration for the inaugural Future of Food Halls Conference is on track to close early, making it the largest known U.S. event dedicated exclusively to food hall operations, design, and growth. Set for April 15, 2026, at The Market at Malcolm Yards in Minneapolis, the conference brings together food hall owners, operators, developers, and industry leaders to address the operational, financial, and guest experience challenges shaping one of hospitality’s fastest-growing segments.

Digital Menu POS Integration: Why Better Menus Sell More Than You Think

This latest episode of Behind the Tab with Grant Pierce, founder of Live Tap List, was such a fun one. On the surface, it’s a conversation about digital menu boards. But underneath that, it’s really about something much more important: how operators can make their businesses easier to run, easier to buy from, and more profitable. Which, frankly, is the kind of hospitality tech story we care about most.

Looking for the Best Food Hall Guest Experience Platform?

If you’re researching the best food hall guest experience platform, chances are you are not just looking for a point of sale. You are probably trying to solve a much bigger problem. You may be opening a new food hall, redesigning an existing one, or evaluating whether your current technology stack can actually support the kind of experience you want guests to have. You may also be thinking about vendor recruitment, event revenue, kiosk ordering, QR codes, shared tabs, or how to keep the entire operation from becoming a mess behind the scenes. That is the real challenge.

How Family Entertainment Centers Can Reduce Café Lines and Increase Food Sales

If you operate a family entertainment center, trampoline park, social gaming venue, or indoor attraction, you probably didn’t get into the business to manage a snack line. You built the business around the experience: the parties, the memberships, the repeat visits, the packed Saturdays, the birthday bookings, the energy. The food and beverage side is supposed to support that experience and contribute revenue along the way. But for a lot of operators, the café becomes one of the biggest friction points in the building.

What to Look for in a Distillery POS System

There’s a point in nearly every growing beverage business where the POS you chose to get started is no longer the POS you want to build around. At the beginning, the goal is simple: get something in place, start selling, and keep the wheels moving. That makes sense. Early-stage operators are balancing startup costs, inventory, production, permits, fulfillment, events, and about 47 other things before lunch. You choose the system that gets you open. But once the business starts growing, the cracks show.

How Mobile Ordering Tools Improve Taproom Service Speed

Every brewery knows the pressure of a packed night. Traditional taproom operators rely on fixed terminals behind the bar, which quickly becomes a bottleneck when multiple staff members are trying to enter orders at once and the line is out the door. Modern platforms like GoTab change that.
