AI receptionist for restaurants, pubs & cafés

Bookings taken during service.

The phone always rings at 7:30 on a Saturday. Your receptionist takes the table booking, answers the questions about parking and dogs, and passes on private-dining enquiries, while your team looks after the room.

What your callers hear

An example call, start to finish.

Example call
Evening, you're through to The Old Bank. I'm their automated assistant and the call's recorded. How can I help?
Hi, can I book for six on Saturday at eight?
Let me check. Eight's full, but quarter past eight is free for six. Would that work?
Yes, that's fine.
Lovely. Can I take a name for the booking?
Mike Brown. One of us is gluten free, is that OK?
I'll make a note so the kitchen knows. The team can talk you through the options on the night.
Great, thanks.
You're booked for six at quarter past eight on Saturday, Mike. See you then!

What she gets for you

  • Date, time and party size
  • Dietary needs and occasions
  • Private dining and event enquiries
  • A name for the booking
Knows what’s urgent. A complaint about food poisoning or an allergic reaction after a visit. Those are flagged and texted to you first.
Made for restaurants

The details that matter to you.

Never miss the 7:30 call

Bookings are taken while you're in service. No more 'can you ring back after nine?'

Allergies noted, never guessed

She records the allergy for the kitchen and never promises a dish is safe.

Private dining, captured

Birthday for twenty? The enquiry lands with the date, numbers and budget, ready for you to quote.

Safe by design

She’s a receptionist, not an expert, and she knows it. For restaurants, pubs & cafés she follows these rules on every call:

  • Never confirm that a dish is safe for an allergy. Note the allergy for the booking and say the team will talk them through the options.
  • Only offer table times the system has listed as free. Never promise a table otherwise.
Also in your plan

More than the phone.

Diners book and enquire at all hours. Your branded booking page shows real availability and takes reservations 24/7 within the capacity you set; full times offer a waitlist; confirmations and day-before reminders (with self-service cancellation) keep no-shows down — while the AI assistant qualifies private-dining and event enquiries into your pipeline.

Online table bookings

A branded booking page shows live availability and takes reservations 24/7 — turn-time-aware capacity means a table can never be double-booked, and full times offer a waitlist.

Waitlist, reminders & self-service cancellation

Full times take waitlist requests so cancellations refill themselves; guests get confirmations and day-before reminder emails with a cancel link — freed tables go straight back on sale.

Live reservations & guest history

Every booking in a live list by day with covers totalled — confirm, seat or offer waitlisted guests a table in a tap, with visit history, tags and notes on every guest. Confirmation and reminder emails (with self-service cancellation) cut no-shows.

Floor plan & live host console

Draw your room once with drag-and-drop tables, then give front-of-house its own link: a live map of the restaurant — green tables free, red tables booked — with the day’s reservations beside it and a time strip that shows which tables are free at every sitting. Seat a booking by tapping it and then a green table; walk-ins take two taps; and the link carries no access to leads, money or settings.
