Calls & bookings · Restaurants & Cafés

For the calls that come during service.

Reservation questions, catering enquiries and review prompts, built to respond promptly, route requests, and keep your team informed.

The problem

Where the work leaks.

The phone rings hardest during service, when nobody can take it. Most of those calls are the same handful of questions, and the ones that are not — a catering enquiry worth a week of covers — are indistinguishable until someone picks up.

What we set up

Three that fit this work.

Each one is described by what sets it off and what then happens — so you can check it rather than take it on trust.

01

Reservation questions

Starts when
A call or message arrives during service.
What happens
Common questions about hours, location, dietary options and group size are answered from information you provide, and anything else is captured for the team.
02

Catering and event enquiries

Starts when
An enquiry mentions a group, a private hire or catering.
What happens
It is separated from routine calls, captured with dates and numbers, and flagged for a person rather than handled automatically.
03

Review prompts

Starts when
A booking has been completed.
What happens
A request goes out with a direct link, sent to guests alike rather than filtered by expected sentiment.

Example scenario

A catering enquiry at 7pm on a Friday

The call comes mid-service. The details — date, headcount, dietary requirements — are captured and flagged as a catering lead, and it is on a manager's screen on Saturday morning instead of lost to a ringing phone.

A worked example of how a run takes shape.

Getting it running

You approve it before it speaks to anyone.

How we work
01

Map

A session on how enquiries reach you now, which ones are missed, and what should happen instead.

02

Script

The greeting, the questions asked and the routing rules, written down for you to change before anything is built.

03

Build

Wired to your number, calendar and records, then tested end to end on a line that is not yours.

04

Launch

Live with a rollback path. We watch the first days of real enquiries and adjust against what people actually say.

Pricing

Month to month, published in the open.

Plans start at $299 a month plus $299 setup, including 200 voice minutes. Cancel any month.

Where we work

Where we work for Restaurants & Cafés teams.

Carrtel supports restaurants & cafés teams in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, and Okotoks. Service delivery is remote: planning, setup, and ongoing support happen online or by phone, without requiring a local office visit.

Start with whatever costs you most.

A short call to map where enquiries are being lost, and what it would take to close the largest one.
