What the phone looks like for a Bristol restaurant
Bristol and the wider the Bristol area has a population of around 700,000, built on aerospace, creative industries and a property market that keeps trades busy. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a restaurant working across Clifton, Bedminster and Redland most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A table booked elsewhere is gone, and a party of twelve that could not get through is a whole evening's covers.
Callwise answers on your own 0117 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

Bristol restaurants ask us
Do we keep our 0117 number?
Yes. Your existing 0117 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how Bristol customers reach you changes.
Do you work with restaurants outside Bristol?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so Bristol and everywhere across the Bristol area is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.
Can it take a booking during service?
That is when most booking calls come and when nobody can pick up. It takes them all, at once, without anyone leaving the pass.
Will it record allergies correctly?
It repeats them back and puts them on the booking, which is safer than a note shouted across a busy service.
What about December?
Party bookings arrive in a six week window and are worth many times a normal cover. Missing those calls is the most expensive thing a restaurant does all year.
Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a Bristol customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
