Areas & Sections

Big restaurants don't operate as one room. The terrace books differently from the main hall. The bar fills with walk-ins. The garden only opens in summer. If the whole floor plan is one flat list of tables, staff waste time deciding where to seat each guest — and online bookings go to the wrong places.

Areas let you group tables into named sections, each with its own color so staff recognize them instantly on the floor plan. Each area can be marked public or private — public areas show up in online booking; private areas are reserved for walk-ins, staff, or VIPs.

Areas plug into everything else: reservations are assigned to an area, the Availability Checker can stop bookings when a specific area is full even if other areas are open, and work-time exceptions can target one area (close the terrace early, keep the hall open).

For beach venues, bars with multiple zones, or restaurants with multiple rooms, this is the difference between chaos and a floor plan that matches how you actually work.
