Sound familiar?
Most restaurants we talk to have the same frustrations.
OpenTable is costing you £1,500+ a year
£110/month plus roughly £2 per cover. For bookings that should be free.
Resy wants £150–700 a month
Long contracts, big fees, and you still don't own the platform or the data.
Customers Google you and find… nothing useful
A Facebook page with last year's menu and no way to book. They go somewhere else.
70% of diners check your website before visiting
If you don't have one — or it's out of date — you're losing covers every week.

Questions you might have
I already have a website — can you just add bookings?
Possibly, depending on how it's built. Let's have a chat and we'll tell you honestly what makes sense.
What about hosting?
We'll set you up with fast, reliable hosting. Typically £10–15/month — we'll help you pick the best option.
Can customers book at any time?
Yes, the booking system works 24/7. You'll get email notifications for every new booking.
What about no-shows?
Email confirmations are included. If you want SMS reminders or deposit-taking, those are available as add-ons.
Do I need to be technical?
Not at all. The admin dashboard is dead simple. We'll show you how it works — most people get it in about 10 minutes.
What if I need changes later?
Small updates (menu changes, new photos) — just ask, we're happy to help. For bigger changes, we can agree a fair price.
Ready to stop paying monthly for bookings?
£750 once. Your own website. Your own booking system. No ongoing fees.
