Organizing your tables into areas helps you manage your restaurant efficiently.
Creating Areas
Navigate: Settings → Tables → Add Area
Areas are zones in your restaurant (e.g., Main Dining, Patio, Bar):
- 1
Click Add Area
Open the new area form.
- 2
Enter area name
Give it a descriptive name.
- 3
Set sort order
Control display order in the timeline.
- 4
Save
Click Save to create the area.
Creating Tables
Navigate: Settings → Tables → Add Table
For each table, configure:
- Name — Table 1, Booth A, etc.
- Area — Which zone it belongs to
- Min Covers — Minimum party size
- Max Covers — Maximum capacity
- Shape — Square, Round, Rectangle
- Online Booking — Enable/disable for online reservations
Use consistent naming like Table 1, 2, 3 or T1, T2, T3. This makes it easier for staff to find tables quickly.
Table Configuration Tips
- Set realistic min/max based on comfort, not maximum squeeze
- Disable online booking for tables you want to keep for walk-ins
- Use sort order to arrange tables in logical physical flow
