How it works for diners
Pick a restaurant and a time
Browse independent restaurants near you and see which sittings still have tables.
Choose your dishes
Pre-order your food and get 5% off it. Drinks and anything marked “order on the night” are chosen at the table.
Change your mind freely
Amend or cancel without penalty until the restaurant’s cut-off, usually 4 hours before you sit down.
Pay at the restaurant
No card details, no deposit. You settle the bill in person, as you always would.
For restaurants
Know what to prep before service starts. Every pre-order lands on your prep board, so you cook against real demand instead of guessing.
Create your restaurant accountFree for your first 3 months. Set up in about 15 minutes.
A prep list, not a guess
See tonight’s dishes and covers by sitting, and update it as bookings change.
You stay in control
Set your own sittings, capacity, walk-in tables and cut-off time.
Waste you can measure
Your impact figures are worked out from your own declared baseline, not a platform-wide estimate.
