Booking date notes

Day-specific notes, right on the schedule

Pin a note to any date so every server, host, and chef opens the schedule with the same context. VIP arriving at eight, kitchen short a line cook, owner's birthday dinner at the back – it all sits on top of the day, exactly where the team is already looking.

One note, every shift sees it

Notes live where bookings live

Open the day and the note is the first thing you see, sitting above the bookings. No second tab, no separate app, no Post-it on the pass. The host stand and the kitchen are reading from the same screen, so the message lands before the first guest walks in.

Quick to add

Type, save, done

Add a note in seconds from the date you are looking at. No menu spelunking, no forms, no formatting rules. Useful for VIP arrivals, allergy alerts that span the whole service, last-minute menu changes, or anything else the team needs to know before doors open.

Team alignment

Front of house and kitchen on the same page

A great service falls apart on small misalignments. Date notes keep front and back coordinated on the things that change shift to shift – staff out, equipment down, a tasting menu that swaps in for the regular card – without firing off a Slack thread no one reads.

Plan ahead

Drop notes weeks in advance

A wine dinner three Fridays out, a holiday menu launch, a private event taking the whole back room. Add the note now and forget about it. The team that opens the schedule that morning will see it, even if you are on holiday or off the floor that day.
