Restaurant waitlist software replaces the paper list at the host stand. Staff add walk-ins in seconds, and guests can also add themselves from a QR code, your website, a kiosk at the door, or a phone call. Everyone sees their place in line and an estimated wait, and gets a text when their table is ready.
QBright keeps walk-ins and reservations on the same live list, so a waiter can mark a table free from the floor and the hostess sees it without anyone walking over. Guests have nothing to download.
Crowds at the door cost you tables
Guests leave when they cannot see the wait. Paper lists and yelling names do not fix that.
On a busy night the doorway fills with people. Guests stand at the host stand, ask how long, and leave. Paper waitlists mix up names. Pagers go missing. Staff yell across a crowded room.
Guests leave when the wait is unclear, not only when it is long. If they cannot see their place in line, they walk out. When a table is free, a waiter still has to walk to the host stand to say so.
A digital waitlist replaces the notepad. Guests join, see the estimated wait, and get a text when their table is ready.
