Interactive Menu Board Kiosks

Long John Sliver's Drive-Thrus Will Now Feature Interactive Menus

— April 3, 2018 — Lifestyle
Fast casual food chain Long John Silver's recently unveiled its new digitized menu boards which transform its traditional drive-thru stops into interactive kiosks. The digitally enhanced menu boards are equipped with speakers and microphones along with high-res graphics.

"The menu board platform, provided by Allure, a division of Christie Digital Systems USA, enables digital order confirmation and full-color, high-resolution animation, video and graphics. The system allows for updates of menus and promotions. Promoted specials can be linked to historical sales trends, special events and local weather forecasts."

Making the drive-thru experience more memorable and seamless for its patrons, Long John Silver opts for technological enhancements that transform food ordering rituals into a more personalized experience.
