Bookatable
Bookatable was an online restaurant reservation service headquartered in London, England.
Bookatable was initially known as Livebookings and was founded in 2006. In the early 2010s, Livebookings was rebranded as Bookatable, which was also the name of their German consumer brand. Bookatable provided real-time reservation services for 13,000 restaurants across 12 countries. Diners could also make bookings via Bookatable's consumer-facing websites.
In January 2016, Michelin announced that they had acquired Bookatable, with the intention of accelerating its development in the online restaurant reservation market in Europe.
In December 2019, Michelin sold the company to TripAdvisor as part of a "Strategic partnership" between the two companies.
