Automation in restaurants: Enhancing service, not replacing it

  • Donatos Pizza is launching its inaugural fully automated pizza restaurant this month near Concourse B, before security, at John Glenn Columbus International Airport.
  • The launch follows Donatos's partnership with HMSHost and Appetronix to create a robotic, digitally operated venue serving fast made-to-order pizzas 24/7 in a busy airport environment.
  • The restaurant will employ advanced robotic systems and data analytics to uphold Donatos’s reputation for delivering an exceptional customer experience despite the fully automated setup.
  • Kevin King, CEO of Donatos, emphasized that their approach goes beyond simply introducing technology into their locations; they are embracing a completely autonomous restaurant model while maintaining the high quality of their pizza and customer service.
  • This autonomous concept suggests a growing trend of integrating robotics in food service to enhance speed and operational efficiency without sacrificing customer satisfaction.
