Eat App review

Eat App gives smaller restaurants most of what the big platforms offer for far less. Lite costs $69 a month billed yearly or $99 monthly, and Eat App says there is no cap on bookings or covers on any paid plan. The suite covers online reservations through Google and your website, table management, waitlist management with a QR code at the door or an online join, and branded messages by email, SMS and WhatsApp. Deposits and prepayments work for events, tickets, packages and seating options. On the guest side there is a database showing visit frequency and spend, guest tags and segments, and the Navi AI assistant for summaries and custom reports. Costs climb with integrations: POS and payment connections are $39 a month each unless you move to Pro at $299 a month billed yearly, which also adds a shared database for groups. The free plan, limited to 100 guests a month, suits a venue moving off a paper book.
