What Mishal's Café Gains From Toast
Mishal's Café describes itself as a British-born café and food brand built around a "British Heritage • Global Taste" identity, combining café favourites with globally inspired flavours. The brand said the selection is intended to give its teams tools to deliver its hospitality experience as it grows.
Shazad Chohan of Mishal's Café said: "Our customers come to Mishal's for the food, the atmosphere and the way we make them feel. The technology behind that experience should help our teams deliver it every day." Chohan added: "Selecting Toast is about putting strong foundations behind our ambitions. As we grow, we want our people to have the tools to work confidently, understand their business and keep genuine hospitality at the centre of every visit."
The company said clearer visibility of trading performance can help management understand demand, review menu performance and plan day-to-day operations. Mishal's Café also said the selection reflects its commitment to building a business that supports customers, store teams and future franchise operators.
