@YourMoms  This is a really convoluted way to take reservations.  I tried it and it doesn't work well.

Seems idiotic and counter productive that this isn't already a feature. Why must such smooth sleek apple technology always lag years behind software wise? Steve Jobs would not be proud.

Trying to view the linked post and I'm getting an 'access denied' message.  Any idea why this is happening?

link doesn't work anymore. What is the solution for this? hard to imagine having a Restaurant software with no Reservation system attached.

Does the restaurant plus app offer a reservation system for online booking by customers?

Definitely interested in testing this. I have a paint your own pottery studio and we need a way to offer table seatings. I have quite a few collegues that use Square POS around the country who I imagine would be interested once it is available too.

Hi, we would like to test this. We are a full-service restaurant and are currently using OpenTable but their terms and pricing are not a good fit for us. The main thing we need is the ability to allocate table inventory by capacity. For example, we have 6 tables indoors, with seating capacities of 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, and 10. This gives us a total capacity of 24. However, if I get 6 2 tops, I need to automatically block reservations. Ideally this would integrate with our floorplan but I would be happy with the ability for my guests to book an actual table and not just seats!

 

Cheers,

Jason

@kellyj I’ve searched everywhere throughout the Beta Group and Support about the add-on to Square for Restaurants to take reservations. Is there a link or screenshot you can provide?
