Features make the difference
What’s possible? That's up to you. booq Reservations is packed with useful features that will save you a lot of time compared to a paper calendar. Great relationships start here...
Zero commission
No high reservation fees or hidden costs. We only charge a fixed monthly fee, so you can accept as many reservations as you want with ultimate peace of mind.
Table management
The clear overview with lunch/dinner split shows exactly who served what, when and where. Aggregate all reservations from your website, Facebook page, Google and phone.
Reservation widget
Put your reservation calendar on your website to allow guests to book a table online, tailored fully to your restaurant’s style, of course.
Smart table selection
What is the minimum reservation duration? Which tables can be merged? What is the minimum occupancy for a table of four? The time-saving algorithm automatically assigns tables based on predefined rules.
Stay in control with shifts
By setting an end time for all time slots, you can divide the day into several shifts to help spread the crowds.
Guest list and table plan
The powerful table and guest display will help you take more reservations as efficiently as possible. Easily drag and drop reservations to other tables or time slots to maximise your occupancy.
Manage waiting lists and walk-ins
Any guests that turn up without a reservation can easily be put on the waiting list if you don’t have a table for them right away. As soon as a table becomes available, you can seat them there right away.
Entice guests with package deals
A three-course menu, lunch deal or high beer are great tools to get customers through the door on slower days.
Send personal mails
Automatic branded reminders are a perfect way to manage expectations or ask about dietary requirements. Add a personalised thank-you email after the meal and you’re almost guaranteed to get a positive review.
Deposits prevent no-shows
Asking customers to pay a deposit or pay in full before they even sit down to eat has never been easier. You can set custom deposits for reservations, guests or package deals.
Enrich guest data
Manage guest information such as previous reservations and enrich reservations with common allergies (nut allergy or lactose intolerance) and labels (VIP, tab or colleague).
Smart control panel
No two businesses are the same, which is why everyone can set their own rules. The control panel is an ideal place to manage opening hours, maximum group size and maximum online reservations, helping you free up some space for walk-ins and phone reservations.
App works online and offline
With the app, you can view reservation data on multiple devices whenever you want. Your chefs will love the insight, but so will waiting staff or owners/managers keen on keeping an eye on things from home.
Light or dark mode
Prefer a darker theme on your bar tablet in the evening? No problem. You can easily configure the system to switch to light or dark mode at a certain time.
