Queued

Restaurants & cafés

Turn the door queue into a QR code, not a clipboard

Guests join from their phone, wander off, and come back when you call them. No pagers, no shouted names, no lost seats.

What it fixes

The bits of the day that eat the day.

  • The clipboard is chaos on a Friday

    Three pens, crossed-out names, and a host trying to remember who arrived first while taking three more names at once.

  • Pagers go missing or die mid-service

    Buzzer hardware is expensive to replace and easy for guests to walk off with.

  • Guests crowd the host stand

    With no visibility into their wait, people ask "how much longer?" every few minutes, which slows down everyone else's service.

  • No record of what actually happened

    A paper list gives you nothing to look back on — how long people really waited, or how many walked away.

How it works here

Set up for restaurants.

Branded guest page
Your logo, colours and fonts — not a generic form. Guests trust it because it looks like you.
Live position & honest wait estimate
Calculated from how many are ahead and how fast tables are turning, updating as the queue moves.
Menu on the wait screen
Guests can browse the menu while they wait, so they're ready to order the moment they sit down.
Live board for the host stand
Works on any tablet or phone — call, seat, mark no-show, all in one tap.

Questions

Asked by people running restaurants.

Can we still take reservations alongside this?
Yes — most restaurants keep their existing booking system for advance reservations and use Queued specifically for the walk-in line.
What happens if a guest doesn't come back when we call them?
After a grace window you set, the ticket is automatically marked as a no-show and the queue moves to the next party.
Can guests see the menu before they're seated?
Yes — on Pro and above, you can show your menu, offers and any announcements on the guest's status page while they wait.
