Setting up events
Set up an event with its own menu, deposit, party-size limits and capacity, and take deposits on events and larger bookings.
When you'd use it
For occasions that need different rules from everyday service, such as private dining or a supper club.
How it behaves
An event carries its own menu, deposit, party-size limits and capacity, separate from standard service, and can run a single night, a continuous run of days, or a handful of dates that are not back to back. Events use the same bookings and day-planner as the rest of your day.
Send a deposit link that reminds the guest and cancels the hold if it goes unpaid, and let the party pre-order their food ahead of a set-menu night so the kitchen is ready. An event can also run as a ticketed night, selling adult and child tickets up to a capacity instead of seating tables. Deposits are taken through the platform’s payments, not rung through the till.

Good to know
Deposits are taken through the platform’s payments, not the till.
Pre-orders are linked to the booking, so the kitchen knows what is coming.
A ticketed night sells tickets to a capacity rather than seating tables.
