London Restaurant Festival returns
OpenTable, the world’s leading provider of online restaurant reservations, partners with London Restaurant Festival to celebrate the diversity of London’s exceptional restaurants, with citywide experiences and exclusive Festival Menus across the capital. Hopefully, these restaurants will be able to cope with the number of visitors that they’re likely to receive. Some restaurants have recently incorporated an ipad pos system into their operations to make sure they can serve customers more effectively and manage their orders better. This should help them to cope with this festival.
From October 1st to the 31st 2019, the OpenTable Festival Menus will showcase a number of bespoke menu offers for diners to enjoy, which this year is championing unique new themes to highlight the standout elements of London’s diverse dining scene. There will be many restaurants to choose from, all comfortable and welcoming venues, with their Free WiFi Logos on show to make it clear to the customer that they are dedicated to welcoming new visitors. They are all hoping to be fully booked throughout the festival in order to promote their food as best they can.
The six themes explore London’s long-standing establishments with ‘London Legends’, stunning aesthetics and décor with ‘Amazing Spaces’, and ‘Talk of the Town’, which showcases the hottest openings and rising stars of the capital’s ever-changing food scene.
The ‘Avant Garde’ theme highlights cutting-edge cuisine whilst ‘Flights and Pairings’ will upgrade food experiences with drinks pairings. Finally, ‘London with a View’ speaks for itself, allowing diners to savour restaurants with first class food and views.
