Bookings, menus, online ordering, search. Written by the people building the product, between services.
Operators are told a bottomless brunch is safe because it comes with a meal. The exception they cite was removed in 2014, and the page owners land on still shows it.
Waste tracking goes digital on 1 October 2026 in England and Wales, 1 January 2027 in Scotland. The producer is missing from the record, but not from the risk.
A restaurant that had the 40% relief last year can be excluded from the new statutory definition this year, and the bill states the multiplier without the reasoning behind it.
Describing parking as “free” is automatically unfair where the guest ends up paying to park — and the cost of getting it wrong lands on the restaurant, not the car park operator.
The listing is blocked, the notice names no order and no rule, and three services pass before anyone answers. The duty behind that silence buys damages, not the listing back.
Charged twice by its own checkout, a restaurant reaches for the fourteen-day refund clock. That clock belongs to cancellation, and the duty that does reach it sets no deadline.
A guest list holding the same regular three times, one row carrying the allergy note. What the law requires when a guest says the record is wrong — and where it is unsettled.

In England the 8 °C rule may not govern a hot courier delivery at all — but which branch applies turns on an undefined term, and reading it wrong inverts the risk.
England and Wales scrapped the five-employee test in 2023 — record the whole assessment or risk a penalty. In Scotland and Northern Ireland, any licensed premises is caught.
