For cafés & bars
Entertainment for your café
Let guests play at the table, using their own phone.
A café thrives on atmosphere. But on a quiet weekday evening things can fall flat, and on busy nights groups sometimes leave sooner than you'd like. With TablePlay you place a QR code on every table so guests can play right away: a quiz, a reaction test or a table-versus-table competition. No app, no hassle, no extra work for your staff. Just more experience, longer evenings and more turnover per table.

Why games work in a café
People come to your café for good company and to share an experience together. A game at the table gives them exactly that: a reason to stay, order another round and come back. It breaks the ice at the bar and turns a quiet evening into a fun one.
- Fill quiet evenings with a recurring quiz night
- Extend seating time: guests having fun are more likely to order another beer or snack board
- Set your café apart from the pub around the corner
- Build reviews faster by asking at just the right moment
From pub quiz night to spontaneous get-together
Are you currently running a pub quiz with paper forms and manual marking? With TablePlay, guests take part on their own phone and the system tallies the scores automatically. This turns every Tuesday or Wednesday evening into a regular quiz session, without the hassle.
And at other times, the game is simply ready and waiting on the table for anyone in the mood. A group of friends waiting for the next round can spontaneously start a game of Connect Four or a reaction test.
More turnover without extra work for your staff
While guests play, you build up your revenue. With a single tap they call staff when they want to order more, and behind the bar a receipt with the table number prints out. And after a fun game, you ask for a review at just the right moment, exactly when the experience is still fresh.
