Empowering Restaurants, One Plate at a Time

At Chowbus, we believe every restaurant deserves the tools to thrive — whether you’re serving sushi, Korean BBQ, dim sum, boba tea, or pho. We’re more than a POS provider. We’re a partner in growth, innovation, and cultural pride.

Our Mission

We build tech ecosystems that help restaurants grow, serve with heart, and uplift their communities.
Born in the Community.
Built for Scale.
Chowbus was founded by two international students who saw local restaurants being underserved by one-size-fits-all technology. What started as a delivery and POS solution for restaurants in Chicago’s Chinatown has grown into a restaurant tech platform trusted by thousands of restaurants across North America — from fast-casual start-ups to full-service restaurant groups Chowbus serves all restaurant types.
We’re here for the chefs, the founders, and the teams behind the counter. The ones who carry on tradition, hustle through dinner rushes, and dream about expansion.
