What we did

The context

For a restaurant, the most important button is the booking one. Visitors need to choose the day and time without calling.

Booking happens in a popup on the site, and the restaurant’s opening hours decide which slots are free.

How we solved it

  1. Booking in a popup

    The booking form opens in a popup, without the visitor leaving the page.

  2. Controlled time slots

    Blocked days and hours are handled in code, on top of the JetAppointments rules.

  3. Four languages

    The site can be read in French, Dutch, English and Chinese.

What we delivered

  • Table bookings with JetAppointments and JetFormBuilder, in a JetPopup.
  • Custom rules for blocked days and hours.
  • Ongoing maintenance and support.
