Before you begin
An active branch, tables, general rate, public contact details and a booking reviewer.
Where to go
Board-game tables → Settings → Discovery profile / Public cafe directory
Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.Follow these steps
- Select the branch and enter publishable name, description, address, phone and hours. Supply both latitude and longitude before enabling nearby discovery.
- Choose rates, live availability and area/table-size details separately. Table details expose aggregate capacity, not table numbers, customer names or participant lists.
- Choose public visibility when adding game titles and verify their names, artwork and copy counts. Use the relevant publication switches for facts that chat should also withhold.
- Enable booking, set minimum advance time, request expiry, reminder lead time and deposit policy. Save, then preview the public page in a signed-out window.
- Submit a test name, phone, email, store-local date/time, party size and duration. Retain the returned management link for status, deposit evidence when available and cancellation while allowed.
- Have staff review the reservation, assign a table and confirm or reject it. Check the management link and test actual email delivery before relying on reminders. Failed delivery does not undo a confirmed booking.
How to verify success
Signed-out visitors see only published facts. Requests begin pending review and become confirmed only after staff successfully allocates a table.
Limits & things to check
Management links are private; never publish them in examples. Hiding directory visibility does not disable store chat, and chat auto-confirmation does not auto-confirm website requests.
