Who this template is for
Table Reservation Form 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 11 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 collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It pins the request to a specific date.
- It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
- Conditional logic hides 3 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 — 3 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Party size” is 8 or more, the form dynamically exposes “Large group note”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Party size” is 8 or more, “Email address” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Occasion” is Birthday, the form dynamically exposes “Cake or candle service?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
Do I still need a booking platform?
Not for direct bookings from your own channels — this form covers that entirely and keeps the data yours.
Should I take card details for every table?
No, reserve card holds for larger parties where a no-show costs real revenue.
Can I add a menu pre-order?
Yes, add a menu selection field for set-menu nights or festive bookings.
How far ahead should the date field allow?
Most restaurants cap it at 60-90 days to avoid speculative bookings far in advance.
