Unique ways First Table grows your restaurant
Bringing you new customers.
Over 1,700,000 diners use First Table to try new and exciting restaurants each month. Our stats show 75% of subscribers are dining at our partner restaurants for the first time. Show them a wonderful time and they’ll tell their friends and return again.
Selling tables you wouldn’t otherwise.
You have full control over the days and times you offer your ‘first tables’ - meaning your VIP function, busy weekends or special dates can be blocked out if you’re fully booked or closed.
Maximising revenue for your restaurant.
With the majority of diners visiting during peak-times, First Table is a unique solution to help ensure that you are generating the maximum amount of revenue throughout your shift.
Creating atmosphere during quiet times.
A crowd attracts a crowd! A customer eating in your restaurant is an endorsement and social proof that your restaurant is worth dining at. Customers also create atmosphere, making other diners more likely to stay at your establishment for longer (and order that second cocktail).
Never charging you a penny.
First Table is free and easy! No commission, sign-up fees or minimum period. Apart from offering an early bird special on food (drinks are always full price), there’s no cost or contracts for restaurants.
Building your database for remarketing.
We help build your own database of diners for email marketing or loyalty programmes. Diners can opt-in to receive news and updates from your restaurant when making a First Table booking.
Generating rave reviews.
Customers are encouraged to leave reviews of their dining experiences to help others discover new restaurants. All public reviews are featured on our website and indexed by Google’s knowledge panel.
Doing your marketing for you, for free.
We give diners a great reason to try your restaurant for the first time investing significant resources into reaching engaged foodies. You benefit from free marketing to an engaged database of foodies through email, social media, paid media and influencer outreach.
Seamlessly integrating with your booking system.
First Table integrates your restaurant seamlessly into our platform, working together with your existing reservation system or marketing channels to streamline reservations, table management and syncing of guest data.
