Restopolitan

Restopolitan is a French company founded in December 2006 by Stéphanie Pélaprat. It operates in the restaurant technology and online reservation space, having developed reservation software for restaurateurs and launched a consumer-facing table-booking service. Its best-known consumer proposition is a membership that gives diners a free meal — typically a starter and a main course, or a main course and a dessert — deducted from the bill at each reservation, valid in thousands of partner restaurants across France and beyond. The company was created in December 2006 and initially focused on software for restaurants before expanding into online table reservations and later e-commerce. In October 2010 it raised €1 million from a pool of investors including Marc Simoncini, Xavier Niel, Jérémie Berrebi, Jacques-Antoine Granjon and the Rosenblum brothers. It expanded internationally, launching in Luxembourg in November 2012 and acquiring the Italian site MiSiedo in May 2017. Restopolitan's consumer offer is built around a paid annual membership (advertised at €119 per year on its website) that provides unlimited reservations and a free meal at each visit, with a minimum of two people per booking and one free meal per reservation. The company positions itself as a way for diners to save on restaurant bills while driving bookings to partner restaurants. Restopolitan has received recognition including the 2009 IDEES programme award from Microsoft France, and its founder Stéphanie Pélaprat was a 2006 laureate in the "Création jeune" category of the Cré'ACC competition. The company remains a private French enterprise.
