How a guest books without leaving the restaurant's site. A diagram, not a screenshot: the plugin was written for agency clients and runs on their sites.

The problem

A restaurant group ran its reservations on Tock but wanted guests to book without leaving its own site.

What I built

I built the integration for a restaurant group. The plugin pulls availability from Tock, embeds the booking flow in the client's own pages, and keeps the brand experience intact.

Under the hood

  1. Guest. A guest looking for a table stays on the restaurant's own site.
  2. Availability. Availability comes from Tock.
  3. Booking. Tock's booking flow runs inside the client's page.
  4. Booked. The guest books without leaving the restaurant's brand.

What it does

  • Embedded booking

  • On brand

    The restaurant's design from start to finish.

Outcome

Diners booked from the client's own site instead of being sent away to the booking platform.
