The question isn’t whether pen and paper work. The question is: how many bookings do you lose every week because the phone rings and nobody answers? Or because someone calls at 10pm? LumenChef doesn’t change the way you work, it makes it safer, shareable with your whole team, and active even when you’re not there.
If you use WhatsApp, you can use LumenChef. Nothing to install, nothing to learn. Most
restaurant owners are up and running on day one, in 15 minutes.
6% of covers are already lost to no-shows. More than half of requests come in when you’re closed and nobody answers. Every lost booking is an empty table. LumenChef costs less than a coffee a day and gets those bookings back. The demo is free: no credit card, no risk.
