For Restaurants & Cafés
Diners check Google before they visit — to confirm you're open, find your number, or read your latest reviews. When your hours are wrong, your category has changed, or a burst of fake reviews hits your rating, you lose covers. We watch your listing 24/7 and alert you within 60 minutes of any change.

Restaurants have more GBP visibility than almost any other business type — and more to lose when the listing is wrong.
A diner planning a Saturday night out who sees you're 'closed' on Google won't call to double-check — they'll book somewhere else. Opening hours are the most frequently edited field on restaurant GBP listings.
The difference between 'Restaurant', 'Takeaway restaurant', 'Cafe', and 'Fast food restaurant' in Google's category system determines which search filters you appear in. A wrong category can drop you from dine-in, delivery, or breakfast searches instantly.
A sudden burst of coordinated negative reviews — sometimes from a disgruntled ex-employee or a competitor — can drop a 4.8-star restaurant to 3.2 stars overnight. We alert you the moment velocity spikes above normal.
Customers calling to book or check availability hit a dead end if your phone number is wrong. Suggested edits can change this field, especially if your restaurant has had multiple numbers over the years.
In competitive areas like busy city streets or tourist hotspots, competitors have been known to submit suggested edits to rival restaurants. We catch any change within 60 minutes.',
Google considers review response rate as a local ranking signal. Our AI drafts professional, warm responses to every review — so no guest comment goes ignored, even during busy service.
These happen to restaurants and cafés across Ireland every week.
