Pizza Hut China has jumped on the robot restaurant bandwagon with its latest Shanghai outlet featuring two robot waiters.
On the basement floor of the new Shanghai Tower, which as yet only has its observatory open, it is Pizza Hut’s first concept store, PH+.
Guests are greeted by the two 80cm robots (both named Casper) at the door. The guest’s table number appears on their screen and one of them will lead the diner to their seat.
Diners can place their orders via a display screen. Signature dishes include steaks and soft-shell crab pizza, and there are also special cocktails.
In May, KFC introduced a high-tech outlet at Shanghai’s National Exhibition and Convention Center, where robots take the orders.
