Reservation System for Restaurant, Cafe, or Bistro

I will create a reservation system for a restaurant, cafe, bistro, or bar. The customer selects a date, time, and number of people via the website and submits the reservation without calling.

Reservations can be sent to the administration panel, email, or an internal overview. It can include a customer confirmation, reservation note, capacity limits, opening hours, or integration with the restaurant's website.

What the system solves

Table reservations via web without unnecessary phone calls

The reservation system allows accepting reservations directly through the restaurant's website. The customer doesn't have to call, write a message, or wait for a reply. They fill out a form, and the restaurant has the reservation clearly stored.

The system can be customized to the restaurant's operations. It can handle available times, number of people, customer notes, contact information, reservation confirmation, or internal staff notes.

Reservations can function independently or as part of a broader gastro solution alongside a QR menu, online food ordering, delivery, and the restaurant's website.
