Deliveroo Reservations has been announced by the delivery brand as a new feature within its app that will enable consumers to get an accurate snapshot of where they can go to eat in real-time. The feature is being rolled out initially in London and integrate with SevenRooms to help users immediately see where they can find a table at some of the most sought-after restaurants. Users can enjoy handy sub-features like What's Available Tonight, Notify Me alerts to find out about last-minute availability and more.

By fully integrating SevenRooms into the Deliveroo app, we’re giving restaurants access to new customers and giving diners an easier way to discover and book some of London’s best tables – all in one place.”
