An example evening, to show how pacing reads.

A steadier service, every night

  • A calmer kitchen

    Tickets arrive in a rhythm your chefs can cook to, instead of 15 tables landing at 19:00.

  • Happier guests

    Drinks, orders and plates come out when they should, because your team isn't catching up from the first minute.

  • A fuller evening

    Guests who can't have 19:00 are offered the next slot with room, so the booking still lands and the quieter times fill.

Your pace, your way

Choose how many guests can arrive in each slot, and change it through the evening to match the team you have on. A lower number while the pass is quiet, a higher one once everyone is in.

Your own team stays in control too. Book a regular or a phone call into any slot from the diary, whenever you like.

Questions about pacing

What is pacing for a restaurant?

Pacing spreads your arrivals across the service. You choose the most guests who can book to arrive in each slot, so a busy time fills steadily instead of all at once.

What happens when a slot is full?

Guests are shown the next slot with room instead, so the booking still lands, just a little later or earlier.

Can I set different limits through the evening?

Yes. Set a limit for any stretch of your service, and add more to vary it, for example a lower number early on and a higher one once the whole team is in.

Can my team still take a booking in a full slot?

Yes. Your team can book a guest into any slot from the diary, so your team is always in control.

Does pacing work with online booking?

Yes. The limits apply to bookings made through your booking widget and your restaurant listing alike.
