Gyrstinge Skovkro
A smarter buffet experience with digital signage
When guests need to be served efficiently, it is crucial that both operations and communication function smoothly. At Gyrstinge Skovkro, they have found a solution that makes the buffet both easier to handle for staff and more manageable for guests – with digital buffet signs from Delfi Technologies.
In the beautiful surroundings by Lille Bøgeskov between Ringsted and Sorø, Simon Buer runs the traditional Gyrstinge Skovkro – an idyllic place where good food, quality and care go hand in hand. The inn has a clear focus on reducing food waste and ensuring a better experience for guests. Therefore, food is portioned so that only what is eaten is produced – and here the digital buffet signs play a natural role.
"Now we can change and add dishes directly from the computer. It's quick if changes occur, or if you've forgotten a dish - you just add it. It's also much easier to include allergens, so the information is always correct."
The digital buffet signs provide guests with quick and precise information about the dishes, so staff are spared repeated questions about ingredients and allergens. At the same time, the buffet gets a uniform and modern appearance, where the information is always correct and updated.
Smart Solution Saves Hours
The digital signs have eliminated the old, manual routines around buffet setup. Where staff previously spent time printing, cutting, folding and sorting signs in boxes, they can now handle everything digitally – quickly and easily.
– We save a lot of time in everyday operations. Previously, we printed signs on A4 paper, cut, folded and sorted them alphabetically in boxes. It took a long time – and we had to make new ones anyway when changes occurred, explains owner Simon Buer and adds:

An Improvement for both Guests and Staff
The digital buffet signs have made work easier for staff and the experience more manageable for guests. With less manual work and fewer errors, time is freed up to focus on what matters most – giving guests a good experience.
For guests, it means a calmer buffet where they can easily orient themselves without confusion. For staff, it means better overview, fewer routine tasks and a much smoother workflow.
The idea for the solution arose when Simon Buer saw digital signs in use at another restaurant – and the decision to implement them quickly proved to be the right one.
– The implementation has been a success from day one. The digital signs save us time, make our everyday life easier and give the buffet a professional appearance, says Simon Buer.
