Eat App is a good fit for restaurants and hospitality venues that need reservations, floor/table management, guest CRM, messaging, and booking-channel visibility. It is not a full private-event sales platform, so catering documents, BEOs, complex proposals, and event contracts may still require venue event software.
Eat App is built around restaurant reservations and table management, not complex event production.
CRM, custom messaging, review management, booking network, WhatsApp, POS, phone, payment, and hotel integrations can be separate unless included in Pro.
Free and Starter plans have monthly cover limits.
Restaurants should review data hosting, guest consent, messaging, and retention terms.
Poor venue connectivity could affect real-time reservation and table updates.
| Plan | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/month | Up to 30 covers/month with basic table management and booking access |
| Starter | $49/month billed yearly | Up to 300 covers/month, SMS allowance, WhatsApp allowance, and reservation growth features |
| Essential | $129/month billed yearly | Unlimited covers, CRM and reporting-oriented reservation and table management features |
| Pro | $229/month billed yearly | Unlimited covers, larger messaging allowance, all add-ons, and dedicated success manager |
Eat App is strongest for restaurants that want reservations, floor control, guest data, and messaging in a modern host-stand workflow.
For private dining and hospitality events, evaluate where restaurant reservations end and event sales begins. Some venues will pair Eat App with dedicated event sales software.
