What is a Restaurant Booking Sheet?

Bookings are customers’ advance reservations to avail of a product or service. In a restaurant setting, bookings are made by customers to reserve their tables in restaurants. These provide them with convenience, so they don’t have to wait in the queue when dining in. These are also made available by travel and hospitality businesses, such as restaurants, both in online and offline platforms. Restaurant booking sheets are used in recording these bookings so restaurants can organize it in their reservation systems and keep track of these prior arrangements.

How to Make a Restaurant Booking Sheet

As of June 2014, 37.6% of customers make online bookings when dining out in the United States. Bookings are made once or twice based on the published statistics by Statista Research Department. Handle these many bookings now and arrange the tables based on the reservation list with the guide steps below.

1. Input Reservation Labels

Have the columns of the sheet these labels- customer’s name, contact details, chosen table (if there is any), number of diners, time of dine-in and expected departure time, and booking status.

2. Book Company Details

Stamp your restaurant company details on the booking sheet. Incorporate your restaurant business logo and slogan. You may place it as a letterhead.

3. Keep Organized

Make it a practice to use one booking sheet per day to avoid overlooking any booking. Prepare more than a copy of the sheet if you prefer to use the printed form so any restaurant staff can readily write bookings that are made through phone calls. If you are to use the sheet on the software you used for making it, create another table on the next page or add another sheet.

4. Remind Customers of their Reservations

Notify your customers hours before their reservation schedule then asked their confirmation for proceeding to the reservation. Update the booking status column with their responses.
