How it works

From sign-up to your first night

Five steps. Most restaurants are ready the same day.

  1. Sign up

    Your name, your restaurant’s name, your email. It takes a minute, and no card is needed.

  2. Set up in three steps

    Paste your website and Lobbra fills in your opening hours. You check them and set your booking rules: how many people, how far ahead, the last table.

  3. Your tables

    Say how many tables you have and for how many people. Lobbra names them and sets them out in rows; move them on the map only if you want to. Lobbra then finds the best free table for every booking and walk-in.

  4. Turn on the AI receptionist

    If you want it: add credit, then choose its voice and greeting. It speaks all 20 languages. You keep your own number and forward your calls to it when you are busy, when nobody answers, or when you are closed. The setup page shows the codes for Melita, GO and Epic.

  5. Run your night

    The iPad at the host stand shows the room, the next guests and every request. Press Confirm and the guest gets your answer by text or email. Your whole team can use Lobbra on their phones too: the iPhone and Android apps arrive in December.

The AI receptionist

Your team always decides.

  • What the receptionist does

    • Answers in 20 languages, including English, Italian and Maltese
    • Checks the time fits your hours and rules
    • Takes the name, number, people and any allergy
    • Answers questions from your restaurant’s details
  • What it never does

    • Confirm a table by itself
    • Take card numbers
    • Invent prices or free tables
    • Hide that it is an AI: it says so
