Education

Hospitality tech designed for Gen Z and future generations

Creating the best student experience

We understand that running a college, university or school catering service goes beyond delivering an appealing, nutritional and safe food experience. The service must also meet certain food standards and the commercial demands of any catering business.

We offer a range of over 30 award-winning integrable self-serve, kitchen management, payment and EPoS till systems and software for universities and colleges. Straight out-of-the box, meaning you only have one provider for all of your service needs.

We take time to understand your requirements using our discovery process and unique generational adoption approach. Generation Z are digital and mobile natives, who expect transparency with the food they order, from allergens to carbs and CO2 emissions, all available from Lolly.

Testimonials

Damien Toms

Amazing Chocolate Workshop

Lolly provides excellent support levels and is always rapid to respond both in and out of office hours – for staff at all levels – both during the build deployment and now with lifecycle management. The system is really easy to use, which is key in what can be a very pressurised trading environment with fast transactions.

Vikki Weston

The Greenman

With the new LollyPro till all the information is loaded into the Cloud via the till, much like a mobile phone, and each person serving has their own log in. It’s easy to simply log on and off when you need it – speeding up the service. As a manager, I can log in to see how well we have done each day. It helps me to manage staffing levels for busy times, and also to order in the right levels of stock when I can see we are beginning to run low. The service levels from Lolly have been exceptional. When we set up there was someone on hand to talk us through the system and how to best use it.

Open Air Events

The battery life, ease of use and lightweight nature of the LollySmart makes it the dream till for these types of event. The tills are easily programmable, which means we can upload details to a memory stick and have as many tills up and running in a really fast timeframe, which helps where we go from one event and immediately to another. And the fact that they are so intuitive and easy to use was a huge selling point for us. We have all our own trained staff, but should we need to bring in anyone new, we can show them how to operate the till in less than 10 minutes.

Mr Guliani

Piccolo Kitchen

The LollyServe system is one of the best ones we have come across. It is really easy to navigate and use and we are receiving excellent feedback from customers who are able to come in and effectively serve themselves quickly and easily. It is also helping our staff to focus more on the customers, instead of gearing all their work around simply taking orders during busy periods…Having the LollyServe in situ is definitely helping us to generate more orders and we have increased revenues by comparison with the same period last year.

Blake Henderson

Create

What we have found extremely useful is having the ability to adapt the tills to suit the upcoming event in question; we can programme them. The tills from Lolly really support speed of service, because they are intuitive and easy-to-use. The operators can easily jump on and off them, turning orders around as quickly as possible. No more clunky keys, making it difficult to input the relevant data. We have also been hugely impressed by the support levels at Lolly. The service they provide is personalised and bespoke to Create. We are made to feel like important clients, and our queries are answered very quickly every time.

Dee Thaya

Flipside

Customers really like it, we’ve had very positive feedback on their use of LollyServe and have seen around a 20 per cent uptake in customers since installation. We met with an array of EPOS solution providers, large and small. Lolly’s system was superior on every count both front and back of house. The implementation from the Lolly team was equally as impressive – making our lives easier so we can get on and focus on quality food. They have a driving passion for new EPoS technologies and better customer service – bringing the future to the present.

Jayne Edwards

Catermasters

We briefed Lolly in, and – amazingly – the team built the free meals system in record time, and it met the brief exactly. They have been extremely supportive and proactive, and the attention to detail shown has been second-to-none. As specialist suppliers to the sector, they have understood at every stage what we needed. And, we have been so impressed by how well the system has been developed – at all times student privacy has remained paramount.

Tony Rodd

Copper & Ink

Lolly has been with us on this journey since we started. They have really got to grips with our fine dining approach, and adapted to meet our requirements…Our front of house and kitchen staff all find the system clear and easy to use. I think this is vital in a busy and hard-working hospitality environment. It’s important for them to be able to access information quickly and easily – there is little room for error. The system has made our lives so much easier and helped us to do our work as efficiently as possible.

Jen Pardoe

Flipside

“We met with an array of EPOS solution providers, large and small. Lolly’s system was superior on every count both front and back of house. For a futuristic fast-casual dining and grab & go such as Flipside, Lolly incorporated lightning-fast transactions with fully integrated self-serve.”

Soho Coffee Company

“I’m delighted with the professional attitude and the conscientious approach adopted by Lolly when working with SOHO Coffee Co. Their customer support engineer, Mike Morris, was particularly helpful in ironing out any teething problems to give us exactly the sort of system and reporting detail that the business demanded.”

Stephen Carrick-Davis

Hill Station Cafe

"The LollySmart till has been invaluable, everything is built around a touch screen, so for the operators or people working in the café it is similar to using a mobile phone. At the same time, we are able to view the sales made in real time; this information is stored in the cloud back office, LollyHQ, which means we can access it anywhere at any given time. It is really helping us to identify trends."

John Ellis

Ampersand Hotel

“The Lolly solution provided us with exactly what we needed. The integration point of sale system reduced errors and saved staff time, while the LollySmart till proved to be a robust and easy to use piece of kit. It had to deal with 8,000 people taking over £70,000 across 24-till locations in just four hours. So we were very impressed."

Raj Jeyaratnam

CH&Co

“Lolly’s approach to tech, as well as the hardware and software they offer, was not only superior to other options we had reviewed, but also more cost effective. We were initially going down another path, but decided to make a change, which left us with a more restricted period of time. Lolly were able to provide guarantees that they could both develop, acquire and deploy the system we required within the short timeframe."

Sam Hicks

BMW

“If there were any issues the Lolly support team was able to help the site managers to resolve these very quickly and efficiently. Using elements of our pre-existing hardware, the Lolly software functioned out-of-the-box, with any minor issues quickly resolved. Lolly has allowed us to take a hands-off approach. Excellent service, fast responses and products delivered as expected. The communications are exceptional.”
