Who this template is for
Food Allergy & Dietary Notice is built for restaurants, hotels and venues who need to take bookings with party size, timing and special requests.
- Restaurants, hotels and venues working in restaurants & hospitality.
- Teams who need to take bookings with party size, timing and special requests without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing handwritten booking notes and lost dietary requirements with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are guests and diners — the form asks them 9 questions across 1 screen.
- Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of handwritten booking notes and lost dietary requirements and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 6 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It pins the request to a specific date.
- It allows multiple selections without free text.
- Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Allergens” includes Other, the form dynamically exposes “Specify the allergen”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Allergens” includes Other, “Specify the allergen” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Severity” is Anaphylaxis, the form dynamically exposes “Head chef callback note”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Severity” is Anaphylaxis, “Details and cross-contact concerns” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
Is this a substitute for staff allergen training?
No, it documents the declaration; staff still need to know how to act on it safely.
Should every guest fill this in?
No, only those with a genuine allergy or intolerance — attach it as an optional link on the confirmation email.
How long should we keep these records?
Follow your local food safety guidance; many venues keep them for the same period as incident records.
What if the allergy is discovered on arrival?
Keep a paper version at the host stand for exactly this situation, and pass it straight to the kitchen.
