Take the surveyFor owners and managers in Summit County
A restaurant waitlist, door TV, kitchen screen and specials app for independent restaurants and bars in Akron and Summit County, Ohio. It runs on the phones, tablets and TVs you already own.
Founding spots: join before launch and your spot gets six months of the full set of tools, on us. After that, keep the free tools or choose more.
Food ready at 6:42. Refill sent to Maria.
Post the wait once and it shows on the TV by your door. Walk-ins, phone calls and patrons on the way go on one list, and each party is notified when the table is ready. People who can see the wait stay instead of leaving.
More about Line
Servers send orders from the table and the kitchen sees them at once. Patrons tap for a refill or the check instead of flagging someone down. Fewer trips, checks that close sooner, more seatings in the same hours.
More about Tableside
Post a special once from any phone. It shows on your door TV, your RightPlace page and the weekly email, and reaches regulars nearby who like your place. Afterward you see which specials filled seats.
More about Deals
Points for visits and perks you pick, confirmed by your staff with one tap. Your host sees who is a regular and what they usually order before they sit down. Nothing costs you until a perk is used.
More about Regulars
Waitlist, digital signage, kitchen screen, trivia night and nightly numbers in one membership, on the phones, tablets and TVs you already own. No hardware required.
See every toolNo sign-up and nothing to install. Each button opens that tool at the step where it happens, in a demo spot where everything is made up.
All included with a RightPlace membership. Start with one and add more when you want.
RightPlace Line
What it is. One list on a phone or tablet for walk-ins, phone calls and patrons on the way, with party size and how long they have waited. Tap Table ready and the patron is notified.
How it helps. Fewer walkouts at the door, a calmer host, every party seated in order. Works with no patron on the app.
RightPlace Tables
What it is. A code on each table. Patrons tap a refill, water, a to-go box or the check, and it goes to their server and the host stand.
How it helps. Fewer wasted trips, checks that close sooner, tables that turn faster in the same hours.
RightPlace Tableside
What it is. Servers ring in at the table on a phone. Each order goes to the kitchen screen at once and, on Clover, onto the table's open check. More registers coming.
How it helps. Orders reach the kitchen minutes sooner. Nothing is typed twice.
RightPlace Kitchen
What it is. Every ticket on a tablet by the line, oldest first, with the table, who sent it and allergies in red. A backup printer if you want one.
How it helps. Fewer remakes and fewer missed allergies. The pass paces itself on a Friday night.
RightPlace Deals
What it is. Post a special once from any phone. It shows on your door TV, your RightPlace page and reaches regulars nearby who like your place, until it ends.
How it helps. A slow Tuesday gets a reason to come in, and afterward you see which specials filled seats.
RightPlace Regulars
What it is. Points for visits, perks you pick (a free appetizer, money off, moving up the line), ranks for the people who come back. Staff confirm each perk with a tap.
How it helps. The people who already come back get thanked, and come back more. Nothing costs you until a perk is used.
RightPlace Numbers
What it is. One night report from your own taps and your register's export: who was seated, how the posted wait ran, which specials filled seats, how fast the kitchen ran. Every number names its source.
How it helps. Next week's special, staffing and hours decided with numbers, not a guess.
RightPlace Door TV
What it is. Open one web link on any smart TV. It shows the wait, tonight's special, your menu and photos, and changes the moment your host taps.
How it helps. People at the door decide to stay, and you stop paying a signage service for a TV you already own.
RightPlace Play
What it is. Trivia and party games on the TV you own, played on patrons' phones. A thousand questions ready, or bring your own. Any staff member runs it from the host stand.
How it helps. A reason to come in on the slow night, with no host to hire and no sheets to grade.
RightPlace Everywhere
What it is. Your hours, menu, photos and specials in one place, with a post written once and copied to each site, and a check of what each listing shows.
How it helps. One change in one place. Fewer wrong hours, fewer missed posts, less time on the laptop.
Free website
What it is. A website for your spot with your menu, hours, photos and tonight's specials, always current. Keep the domain you have or get one through us. Already have a site? Paste two lines and your specials and hours show there too.
How it helps. Your menu, hours and tonight's specials, always current. Free, and it stays free.

Starting with independent restaurants and bars in these towns, and Kent next door.

No. Walk-ins and phone calls go on the list with no account. Patrons who find you on RightPlace use it in their web browser, and signing in is optional.
No hardware required. RightPlace runs in the web browser on phones, tablets, laptops and smart TVs. Keep a spare device or two charged, and staff can use their own.
Yes. RightPlace runs in a web browser beside your register, so it works whether you use Toast, Square, Clover or something else, and patrons pay there like always. On Clover, server orders also go straight onto the table's Clover check. More registers are coming soon.
