Why BookingMeal?
The simplest way to manage group restaurant bookings for organised tourism.
BookingMeal is a Business-to-Business (B2B) platform that connects restaurants with travel agencies, tour operators and DMCs worldwide for group dining reservations of 15 or more persons. We are a pure intermediary — we do not provide restaurant services, we do not serve individual consumers, and we do not handle payments between the parties.
✈ For Travel Agencies, Tour Operators & DMCs
Stop chasing restaurants by email and phone. BookingMeal lets you find, compare and book group restaurants in minutes.
✔ Search & compare
Browse restaurants by city, availability, group menus and prices. Filter by cuisine, capacity and dietary options.
✔ Instant confirmation
When a restaurant publishes its availability, your booking is confirmed automatically — no waiting, no back-and-forth.
✔ Complete booking details
Each confirmation includes the full menu, price per person, restaurant address, dietary management notes, and all fiscal data you need to process your invoice.
✔ Direct payment to the restaurant
You pay the restaurant directly by bank transfer. BookingMeal never collects or handles your payment — the financial relationship is exclusively between you and the restaurant.
✔ Free for agencies
No subscription, no booking fees, no commissions for the agency. The platform is completely free for travel professionals.
✔ Dietary requirements managed
Indicate the number of vegetarian, celiac, lactose-intolerant or other dietary needs directly in the booking. The restaurant receives them in the confirmation and prepares accordingly.
✔ Flexible cancellation
Free cancellation up to 48 hours before service. Participant reductions communicated by the day before are free — you pay only for actual attendees.
🍴 For Restaurants
Your booking desk, open 24/7. Reach international travel agencies and tour operators looking for restaurants like yours — without cold-calling, without contracts with dozens of agencies, without fixed costs.
✔ International visibility
Access a global network of travel agencies, tour operators and DMCs. They find you, compare your menus and book — you don’t need to contact them individually.
✔ Zero fixed costs
No registration fee, no monthly subscription, no hidden charges. You only pay a commission on groups actually served, as defined in the contract terms. If no groups come, you pay nothing.
✔ You set the rules
Publish your own menus, prices and availability. You decide when, how many and at what price. No price parity obligation — your prices on BookingMeal are independent from other channels.
✔ Instant booking confirmation
When you publish your availability (allotment), agencies can book with instant confirmation — even at night, on weekends or during service. No emails to answer, no phone calls to return.
✔ Direct payment from the agency
The agency pays you directly by bank transfer before the group arrives. BookingMeal never touches your money. You invoice the agency directly using the fiscal data provided in the booking confirmation.
✔ Free control panel
Manage bookings, menus, availability, print kitchen cards and group schedules — all from partners.bookingmeal.com. Every booking is also sent to you by email in real time.
✔ Dedicated back office
Our team actively follows every booking in coordination with you. If something goes wrong — cancellation, last-minute change, emergency — we work together to find a solution, including redirecting groups to a nearby partner restaurant when possible.
✔ Promotion at trade fairs & workshops
BookingMeal promotes partner restaurants at industry trade fairs, workshops and commercial meetings with tour operators — at no extra cost to you.
✔ No exclusivity, no lock-in
You are free to use other platforms and sales channels. The contract is open-ended with 30 days’ notice to cancel — no penalties, no minimum duration.

A Pure B2B Intermediary
BookingMeal operates exclusively as an intermediary between restaurants and professional tourism operators. Individual tourists and group participants are not users of the platform and have no contractual relationship with BookingMeal.
Groups dining at partner restaurants are clients of the travel agency or organiser that made the booking — not of BookingMeal. The platform name does not appear to the end consumer.
BookingMeal does not process payments between the parties, does not issue invoices on behalf of restaurants, and does not collect personal data of individual tourists.
