## What is Restaurant Calculator App?

Restaurant Calculator works out food cost, menu prices, tax, tips and staff pay for restaurants, cafés and bars, using your country's rules.

Pick your country once, and every tool uses its tax, service charge, currency and units. Each tool shows the answer first. Send it to the calculator, copy it or share it.

Made for owners, managers, chefs and cashiers at restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries and food trucks.

MENU AND FOOD COST
• Recipe cost and food cost percentage for each dish
• The menu price that hits the food cost you're aiming for
• A menu library that keeps each item's recipe cost, menu price and delivery app price
• Menu engineering: stars, plowhorses, puzzles and dogs
• Recipe scaling, batch portions and yield tests

DELIVERY APPS
• The price to list each dish at so the commission doesn't eat your profit
• Compare apps: one order on every delivery app in your country, best first
• Uber Eats, DoorDash, Grubhub, SkipTheDishes, Deliveroo, Just Eat, talabat, Careem, Keeta, HungerStation, Jahez, GrabFood, foodpanda, ShopeeFood and more

BILLS, TAX AND TIPS
• A calculator with one-tap keys for your country: add or take out VAT, GST or sales tax, add a service charge or a tip
• Receipts with tax and service charge shown line by line
• Tip and split, tip pool and service charge sharing
• Card terminal fees, online payment fees and card surcharges

PROFIT
• Prime cost, break-even, sales target and a monthly profit check
• Labor budget, average check and table turns, promo payback
• Rent: percentage rent, move-in cost and how much rent you can afford
• An opening budget for a new restaurant

STAFF AND CASH
• Overtime, holiday pay and other pay rules for your country
• Server checkout, cash count and cash deposit

KITCHEN, BAR AND CAFÉ
• Pour cost, drink cost, upcharges, brew batches and the pastry case
• Par and order, forecast and prep list, food cost variance and loss check
• Wait times, reservations, staffing by covers and event quotes

THE CALCULATOR
• History grouped by day, with search and copy
• Hold a key to change its rate
• Three looks: Standard, a classic solar scientific calculator, and a '90s cash register that prints a receipt journal

UNITS AND CURRENCY
• Kitchen conversions, like cups to grams by ingredient and oven gas marks
• Live exchange rates for suppliers who bill in another currency

SPREADSHEET TEMPLATES
• Excel and Google Sheets templates for the same jobs, included once your first paid year starts. Save them from Settings.

RULES FOR YOUR COUNTRY
• Set up for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and the Philippines, with general settings elsewhere.
• Tax and pay rules are checked every month and update without an app update. Each rule names its official source and shows a "Rules as of" date.
• Results are estimates, not tax or legal advice.

IPHONE AND IPAD
• A sidebar layout on iPad.

PRIVATE
• No account, no ads, no tracking.
• What you type stays on your device.
• Anonymous usage counts (which tools get used, never what you type) show us what to improve. Turn them off in Settings.
