This Just In: You Can Now Make Reservations Via Uber Eats — Including at the Country's Hottest Restaurants
Adding to the app's growing dining-centric features, now you can score sought-after restaurant reservations on the move.
The perfect night out needs a dream dinner reservation, but securing a table at a top restaurant isn't always so straightforward. Now there's a new way to book, as Uber Eats and OpenTable have teamed up on a brand-new app feature called Reservations.
Allowing users to book tables at hundreds of participating restaurants via Uber Eats, diners looking to fuel up during a big night out or nail a post-show feast can secure a top-notch reservation, guided by real-time table availability and a single app.
Rolling out across Australia, Reservations is simple to use. Just load up Uber Eats, hit the Dine Out tab and scroll through restaurants until you find a tempting spot. Then, it's just a matter of selecting from the available time slots and confirming your booking.
Meanwhile, those in Sydney will also see extra discounts for restaurants looking to attract more customers during off-peak times. Similar to platforms like EatClub and First Table, this Dine Out perk offers a double benefit: guests eat out for less, and restaurants stay fuller during quiet periods.
As for Uber One Exclusive Tables, this members-only service features reserved tables at some of the hottest restaurants around. Think Pellegrino 2000, Neptune's Grotto and Ester in Sydney, and Daphne, Carlton Wine Room and Lee Ho Fook in Melbourne.
"Through our partnership with OpenTable, and with the launch of Reservations and Uber One Exclusive Tables, we're making it even easier for Australians to discover great restaurants and secure a table at some of the most in‑demand venues," says Ed Kitchen, Managing Director of Uber Eats Australia & New Zealand.
The Reservations feature is now available on the Uber Eats app. Head to the website for more information.
