This week, hospitality leaders gathered at London’s iconic Barbican Centre for OpenTable’s third annual London Hospitality Summit - a day dedicated to connection, conversation, and insights for restaurant operators. From a live episode of The Go-To Food Podcast featuring Florence Mae Maglanoc (1996 Group), Dominic Hamdy (HAM Restaurants), and Will Beckett (Hawksmoor) and the latest product news from OpenTable, to discussions on data, service, and day-to-day operations with the Woodhead Restaurant Group’s James Fryer, the day was full of thoughtful exchanges and new ideas. Attendees could also ask all of their burning questions during a live Q&A with OpenTable’s executives and product team leaders. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to our sponsors, PolyAI and Rituals UK & Ireland (B Corp™), for their support. We hope to see you again next year. #LondonHospitalitySummit #OpenTableEvents #RestaurantLeadership #HospitalityInnovation #UKRestaurants Debby Soo Amy Wei 🥄 Robin Chiang Shayani Roy Zach Whitman Freddy Clode Benjamin Benton Michael Chen  Phillip Rowlands Jessica Smith Suada A.

As more people look to AI for search, we’ve been making sure we’re ahead of the curve for diners and most importantly, to serve our restaurant partners as this tech evolves quickly. Our partnership with OpenAI, which earlier this year saw us as the first restaurant tech partner for their Operator tool, has been amazing to see unfold, making a real impact on how people are discovering restaurants. We’re thrilled to be an initial partner later this year for their new Apps in ChatGPT. This feature surfaces apps when ChatGPT suggests one based on the conversation, or by calling them by name. Apps respond to natural language and include interactive interfaces you can use right in the chat.
