Tables & Dine-In
Overview
If you run table service, Tables let you attach each order to a physical table, track which tables are occupied, and (in Full Service mode) assign waiters to sections.
How it works
- Tables are grouped into sections (e.g. Patio, 2nd Floor).
- Each table has a name and a seat count, and is linked to a QR code so customers can order from the table.
- Dine-in behaviour — whether table scanning is required, and what happens to a table after payment — is set on the outlet.
Default setup
Bean & Brew example: a handful of tables in one seating area.
1. Create a section
In the sidebar open Table Sections, click Create, choose the Outlet and give the section a Name (e.g. Main Floor).
2. Create the tables
In Tables, click Create for each table:
- Outlet and Section
- Table name — e.g.
T1 - External ID — links the table to its QR code
- Pax — the number of seats
3. Turn on dine-in
On the outlet's Order tab, open Dine-In Settings and turn on Allow Dine In.
