For restaurants that do private parties
Private events,
without the notebook.
Take the booking while they are still on the phone. The room, the menu, the deposit and the confirmation — one record, done in ninety seconds.
$79/month per venue · invitation only
The problem
One booking, four places, no agreement
A notebook, a shared calendar, an inbox and a menu somebody emailed themselves two years ago. Each one fine. Together, expensive.
Wrong price
Quoted from last year’s PDF. You eat it, or you make the call nobody wants to make.
Double booked
Two parties, one room, found out the week of. This is the one that ends a relationship.
Dropped thread
An inquiry nobody chased. No record it happened, so nobody knows what it was worth.
No answers
“How did December go?” takes an afternoon and a calculator.
How it works
Everything a party needs. Nothing a ballroom does.
Set it up once, in your own words
Your rooms, with their own minimums, deposits and capacities. Your bar packages by the hour, your food by the head, your platters by the tray. Nothing is hardcoded and nothing needs a developer.
- Change a price and the next quote uses it — immediately, on every device
- Retire a dish and it leaves the form, while every party that already ordered it keeps it
The price is right before you hang up
Room, party size, bar, food, platters — the total updates as you talk, tax and gratuity included. It warns you about capacity, minimums and seasonal rates while the customer is still on the line.
- One place decides every price, so quotes cannot drift
- Put your prices up and a party already booked keeps what it was quoted
See the room, not the spreadsheet
Month, week and day, colored by room. It knows what is already held, so a clash is something you hear about while you are talking — not the week of.
- Mirrors into the Google Calendar your floor already uses
- Every room, and every party in it, on one screen
Confirmations that write themselves
Confirm a booking and the email is already written — the date, the room, the headcount and the deposit, filled in from the record. Then somebody reads it and presses Send.
- Sends from your own Gmail, so replies land where you expect
- Nothing ever goes out that a person has not seen
Know who is calling
Not just bookings — people. How many times they have been in, what they have been worth, when they are next due. Book a regular without typing their details again.
- Their whole history on one screen
- Repeat callers flagged the moment their number comes up
Answers, not exports
What was booked, what actually sells, which nights earn and how far ahead people book. Every figure shows its working, so you can check it rather than trust it.
- Every number exports to a spreadsheet if you want to redo the math
- Quoted, never “revenue” — your POS still owns what was collected
On purpose
Four things it will not do
These are decisions, not gaps. Each one is why the rest stays simple enough to use during a phone call.
- It will not take paymentsYou already have a POS that is PCI-compliant, reconciles to your bank, and your staff know. A second payment rail is not a feature — it is a second system that can disagree with the first about what a customer paid. No card number ever touches this.
- It will not email anybody by itselfConfirmations are written for you. Somebody reads them and presses Send. Nothing reaches a customer that a person has not seen first.
- It has no booking widgetA private event is a conversation. Nobody books a forty-person party from a form, and pretending otherwise adds a funnel nobody uses.
- It is not your reservations bookKeep whatever runs dinner service. This is the private-events half — the half those tools do badly, or not at all.
Fit
Who this is for
Restaurants and bars with a private room
A back room, or a section you close off. A few parties a month or a few a week. Whoever picked up the phone runs it, in between everything else they are doing.
Not hotels or conference venues
Four ballrooms, a coordinator team, room blocks and banquet staffing are a different job, and good software already exists for it. We will tell you so rather than sell you this.
Price
One plan. No per-seat charge.
$79a month, per venue
- Everybody on your team, at no extra cost
- Unlimited bookings, rooms and menus
- Your own Gmail and Google Calendar connected
- Export everything, any time
