Tables, Orders & Delivery

These three features cover the operational flow from seating a customer to handing food to a delivery driver. Each has its own resource controller and role restriction.

Mesas

Table management for the dining room. Available to admin and mesero.

Pedidos

Order taking linked to a table or walk-in customer. Available to admin and cajero.

Comandas

Per-item kitchen tickets tied to an order. Available to admin and cajero.

Delivery

Delivery tracking with address, phone, and driver assignment. Available to admin and cajero.

Tables (mesas)

Route::resource('mesas', MesaController::class)->middleware('role:admin,mesero');

Database schema

Defined in database/migrations/2026_03_21_004811_create_mesas_table.php:

Schema::create('mesas', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->string('numero');
    $table->integer('capacidad');
    $table->enum('estado', ['disponible', 'ocupada', 'reservada'])->default('disponible');
    $table->timestamps();
});

Column	Type	Notes

`created_at` / `updated_at`	`timestamp`	Laravel timestamps

Routes

Method	URI	Action
`GET`	`/mesas`	`index`
`GET`	`/mesas/create`	`create`
`POST`	`/mesas`	`store`
`GET`	`/mesas/{mesa}`	`show`
`GET`	`/mesas/{mesa}/edit`	`edit`
`PUT/PATCH`	`/mesas/{mesa}`	`update`
`DELETE`	`/mesas/{mesa}`	`destroy`

Table states

State	Meaning

`reservada`	Table is reserved and should not be seated walk-ins

Orders (pedidos)

Route::resource('pedidos', PedidoController::class)->middleware('role:admin,cajero');

Database schema

Defined in database/migrations/2026_03_21_012542_create_pedidos_table.php:

Schema::create('pedidos', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->foreignId('mesa_id')->nullable()->constrained()->onDelete('set null');
    $table->string('cliente')->nullable();
    $table->decimal('total', 10, 2)->default(0);
    $table->enum('estado', ['pendiente', 'preparando', 'listo', 'entregado', 'cancelado'])->default('pendiente');
    $table->timestamp('fecha')->useCurrent();
    $table->timestamps();
});

Column	Type	Notes
`id`	`bigint` (PK)	Auto-increment
`mesa_id`	`bigint` (FK, nullable)	References `mesas.id`; `SET NULL` on mesa deletion
`cliente`	`varchar` (nullable)	Customer name for walk-in or delivery orders
`total`	`decimal(10,2)`	Running order total; defaults to `0`
`estado`	`enum`	Order status (see below); defaults to `pendiente`

`PUT/PATCH`	`/pedidos/{pedido}`	`update`
`DELETE`	`/pedidos/{pedido}`	`destroy`

Kitchen tickets (comandas)

Comandas are the per-item kitchen instructions attached to an order. Each comanda record links one product to one order with a quantity and its own preparation state.

Route::resource('comandas', ComandaController::class)->middleware('role:admin,cajero');

Database schema

Defined in database/migrations/2026_03_21_012543_create_comandas_table.php:

Schema::create('comandas', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->foreignId('pedido_id')->constrained()->onDelete('cascade');
    $table->foreignId('producto_id')->constrained()->onDelete('cascade');
    $table->integer('cantidad');
    $table->enum('estado', ['pendiente', 'preparando', 'listo'])->default('pendiente');
    $table->timestamps();
});

Column	Type	Notes
`id`	`bigint` (PK)	Auto-increment
`pedido_id`	`bigint` (FK)	References `pedidos.id`; cascades on delete
`producto_id`	`bigint` (FK)	References `productos.id`; cascades on delete
`cantidad`	`integer`	Number of units to prepare
`estado`	`enum`	Ticket status; defaults to `pendiente`
`created_at` / `updated_at`	`timestamp`	Laravel timestamps

Comanda statuses

Status	Description
`pendiente`	Ticket received, not yet started
`preparando`	Cook is actively preparing this item
`listo`	Item is plated and ready for service

Deleting a pedido cascades to all its comandas. Deleting a producto also cascades to any outstanding comandas referencing it.

Routes

Method	URI	Action
`GET`	`/comandas`	`index`
`GET`	`/comandas/create`	`create`
`POST`	`/comandas`	`store`
`GET`	`/comandas/{comanda}`	`show`
`GET`	`/comandas/{comanda}/edit`	`edit`
`PUT/PATCH`	`/comandas/{comanda}`	`update`
`DELETE`	`/comandas/{comanda}`	`destroy`

Delivery orders

Delivery records extend an existing pedido with the logistics details needed for off-premise delivery.

Route::resource('delivery', DeliveryController::class)->middleware('role:admin,cajero');

Database schema

Defined in database/migrations/2026_03_21_012544_create_deliveries_table.php:

Schema::create('deliveries', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->foreignId('pedido_id')->constrained()->onDelete('cascade');
    $table->string('direccion');
    $table->string('telefono');
    $table->string('repartidor')->nullable();
    $table->enum('estado', ['pendiente', 'en_camino', 'entregado'])->default('pendiente');
    $table->timestamps();
});

Column	Type	Notes
`id`	`bigint` (PK)	Auto-increment
`pedido_id`	`bigint` (FK)	References `pedidos.id`; cascades on delete
`direccion`	`varchar`	Delivery address
`telefono`	`varchar`	Customer phone number
`repartidor`	`varchar` (nullable)	Driver name; can be assigned after creation
`estado`	`enum`	Delivery status; defaults to `pendiente`
`created_at` / `updated_at`	`timestamp`	Laravel timestamps

Delivery statuses

Status	Description
`pendiente`	Order placed, not yet dispatched
`en_camino`	Driver has picked up the order and is en route
`entregado`	Order successfully delivered to the customer

Routes

Method	URI	Action
`GET`	`/delivery`	`index`
`GET`	`/delivery/create`	`create`
`POST`	`/delivery`	`store`
`GET`	`/delivery/{delivery}`	`show`
`GET`	`/delivery/{delivery}/edit`	`edit`
`PUT/PATCH`	`/delivery/{delivery}`	`update`
`DELETE`	`/delivery/{delivery}`	`destroy`

Full order workflow

Seat the customer (mesero)

Update the mesa estado to ocupada at /mesas/{mesa}/edit.

Create the order (cajero)

Open /pedidos/create. Select the mesa and optionally enter the customer name. Submit to create the pedido with estado = pendiente.

Add kitchen tickets (cajero)

For each item, create a comanda at /comandas/create linking pedido_id and producto_id with the desired cantidad.

Kitchen prepares items (cocinero)

The cook updates each comanda from pendiente → preparando → listo as items are prepared.

Mark order delivered

Once all comandas are listo, the cajero updates the pedido estado to entregado.

Free the table

Update the mesa estado back to disponible so the next party can be seated.

For delivery orders, create the pedido without a mesa_id, then immediately create a delivery record with the customer’s address and phone number.
