Sell · Table Reservations

Take the table, confirm it from your own name, and remind them before service

A diner books in a few taps without making an account. The booking is recorded against a real table on your floor, they get a confirmation that comes from your restaurant and replies to your inbox, and neither of you has to remember it again — the reminder and the cancellation link are already arranged.

Available on: Growth and up

A restaurant's booking page is not an appointment calendar. It is a floor, a service, and a diner waiting to hear back.

What changes for your business

  • Take covers on your own website, with no account for the diner to create.
  • Every booking is confirmed by email that reads as being from your restaurant and replies to your address.
  • The full booking lands in whichever inbox you nominate, the moment it is made.
  • A diner who can no longer come cancels themselves, and the table goes back to the floor.

Key capabilities

Real tables, not abstract slots

Lay out your floor — tables, sizes, joins and areas — and a booking is held against a table that can actually seat the party. What is offered is what your room can take that evening.

A confirmation that comes from you

The email shows your restaurant's name, replies go to your address, and it repeats the party, the date, the time and the moment the booking was made. Delivery runs on LimeOrigin's verified sending domain so it reaches the inbox rather than the spam folder.

Your inbox gets the whole booking

Nominate where new bookings should go, and each one arrives there in full — party, time, contact details and any question you asked — instead of a nudge that sends you back to a dashboard.

Reminders on your own timing

Switch on a reminder and choose how long before the table it should go. Nothing is sent about a booking that has been cancelled or a party that has already walked in.

Cancelling without a phone call

Every message carries the same plain link to manage the booking. It holds no secret: the page asks for the email address the booking was made with, so a stranger who guesses a reference gets nowhere.

Groups who eat together

For a larger table, each guest can be sent their own link to choose their courses ahead of the night, with a deadline you set — and a nudge to anyone who has not, before it passes.

Deposits and card guarantees

Ask for a deposit or hold a card against a no-show on your own Stripe account, on the sittings where it is worth it. The money is yours; LimeOrigin never sits between you and it.

The waitlist that actually calls back

When a full sitting frees up, the next party on the list is offered the table by email and takes it from the link. If they do not, the offer lapses rather than blocking the table.

The service in front of you

A floor view for the night, arrivals as they check in, a pre-service briefing of who is coming and what they asked for, and every booking exportable when you want it elsewhere.

Who it's for

A restaurant paying a commission on every cover

Take the same bookings from your own site under your own name. The diner never leaves your domain, and the guest's details are yours rather than a portal's.

A kitchen that cannot absorb a twelve-top's surprises

Take the group booking, send each guest their own link to choose, and see the whole table's choices before you order the food.

Works with

  • Stripe (your own account, for deposits)
  • Email delivery (Resend)
  • CRM & Enquiries
  • Loyalty & Gift Cards

Built to be trusted

A diner never needs an account, and nothing in a booking email is a credential — the link to change a booking proves you can read the inbox before it shows anything. Deposits are taken on your own Stripe account.

Questions, answered

No. A booking is made with a name, an email address and a phone number, and managed from a link. An account is only ever needed for the loyalty scheme, and only if they want one.
