Overview08 / 09

Nothing disappoints a guest like a dish that’s run out.

The Restaurant module holds what Blue Butler needs to answer dining questions properly: your dishes by category, labels like vegetarian, chef’s special and most ordered, opening hours for each day and the ways guests can order, from dine-in to room service and takeaway.

When something runs out, mark it out of stock in a tap and Blue Butler stops offering it. Change tonight’s hours and the answer guests get changes with it. Dinner reservations guests ask for on WhatsApp reach your restaurant team as service requests.

FAQ

Questions hotels ask about restaurant.

Can guests order food on WhatsApp?

Guests can ask about the menu, opening hours and room service on WhatsApp, and Blue Butler answers from your current menu. Orders and table reservations go to your restaurant team as requests, with the guest’s name and room.

How do we update the menu?

Add dishes by category, such as starters, mains, desserts and drinks, add labels like vegetarian, chef’s special or most ordered, and toggle stock in the Restaurant module. Changes are used in guest answers straight away.

What happens when a dish runs out?

Mark it out of stock in one tap and Blue Butler stops offering it to guests. Mark it back in stock just as quickly. You can also be alerted when a menu item runs out.

Can opening hours differ by day?

Yes. Set opening hours for each day of the week, close a day, or apply the same hours to every day, weekdays or weekends at once. Choose which order channels are live: dine-in, room service or takeaway.

Does this handle payments?

Blue Butler sends the invoice to the guest and lets them see payment-related information in WhatsApp, such as what has been charged to their stay. It doesn’t take payments itself; payment stays with your existing systems.
