Pricing Breakdown

Mies

• Free: Dashboard, customizable widget, mobile/tablet, email confirmations — €0.
• Lite: €39.99/month (annual) / €49.99/month (monthly).
• Pro: €69.99/month (annual) / €79.99/month (monthly).

TableIn

• Basic: €67/month.
• Premium: €177/month.

The numbers tell a compelling story. A restaurant on TableIn's premium plan at €177/month pays €2,124/year. Mies Pro at €69.99/month (annual) costs €839.88/year — less than half. And if you only need core features, Mies costs nothing, saving you €804/year compared to TableIn's basic plan.

Setup and Onboarding

Mies was designed from the ground up for speed. The entire onboarding process — account creation, restaurant configuration, widget embedding — takes under 5 minutes. No technical knowledge needed, no waiting for account activation.

TableIn's onboarding is more traditional. Expect to spend 30 minutes or more configuring your account, setting up your floor plan, and customizing your reservation settings. Some restaurants need to coordinate with TableIn's support team, which adds delays.

Support

Mies provides support on all plans, free included. Whether you are a single-location cafe or a multi-venue restaurant group, you get access to a responsive team that understands hospitality. Pro plan customers enjoy priority support for urgent matters.

TableIn's support is available to paying customers. Given the minimum €67/month commitment, you are paying a meaningful fee just to have access to help when needed.

Who Should Choose Which?

Choose Mies if:

• You want to stop paying for features that should be free
• You need a reservation system across any European country
• Speed of setup is important — under 5 minutes
• You want advanced features at lower prices than TableIn charges

Consider TableIn if:

• You have an existing TableIn contract you cannot exit
• You rely on a specific TableIn feature not available elsewhere

Conclusion

TableIn is a competent reservation platform, but at €67-€177/month, it is hard to justify when Mies delivers the same core value for free. With paid plans that cost less than TableIn's cheapest option, Mies is the better deal at every price point. Over 500 restaurants across Europe have already discovered this — and they are saving hundreds to thousands of euros per year as a result.
