A booking widget needs a website to live on
Tablein is a low-cost flat-fee booking widget for small restaurants — it embeds on your existing site to manage reservations, but it isn't a website. Dinehere is A$59/month (or A$590/year — 2 months free): the actual website the widget lives on, built from your menu, SEO-friendly, hosting included.
