How Chickie’s & Pete’s Got Happier Guests and More Motivated Staff with sunday

At Chickie’s & Pete’s, a beloved destination for sports, seafood, and signature crabfries, the focus has always been on delivering a fun, fast, and memorable experience. But like most high-traffic restaurants, the team knew that when the check arrives, the energy drops. Guests want to leave—but the traditional payment process gets in the way. That’s why Chickie’s & Pete’s turned to sunday.

Fast, Seamless Checkout—Right from the Table

For Chickie’s & Pete’s, sunday isn’t just technology—it’s a new rhythm for service. The process is incredibly easy for guests:

From there, the guest sees everything they ordered, confirms it, selects a tip, chooses a payment method, and pays—in seconds.

“It is truly as simple as that. Very seamless, very straightforward, and not confusing at all for our guests.”

This simplicity is what makes sunday such a perfect match for a high-energy, high-volume venue like Chickie’s & Pete’s.
