Helpful DM replies
The same questions arrive every day. Answer them consistently.
During service, a question about the menu or opening hours is easy to miss.
Linkar can share those prepared answers when someone asks in a supported Instagram conversation. Keep menus and holiday hours at a maintained destination. If someone wants a reservation, send the actual reservation route and explain how confirmation works rather than assuming the DM holds a table.
3 step process
Prepare the answer before the question arrives.
Start with one clear request. Build the answer around the person who sent it.
Prepare the guest information
Check your menu, hours, address, and reservation destination on a phone. Confirm the correct location and current version of each page.
Set distinct request words
Use MENU for the menu and BOOK for reservation information. Avoid a catch-all reply that treats every message as a table request.
Test during realistic conditions
Try a normal enquiry and a special request. Make sure the message states your actual response process when staff are busy serving guests.
Example conversation
Watch one question get its answer.
Follow one request from the moment it arrives to the step after the reply.

- Your reply:Here’s our current menu and opening hours. For a reservation, use the booking page linked there.

Why it helps
Helpful answers, and a person when it matters.
Prepared answers for the questions you already know, and a clear route to your team for the rest.
Send the current menu
Use one maintained menu link so seasonal changes do not require rewriting every reply. Include the relevant location when your business has more than one.
Explain practical details
Hours, address, and reservation instructions help someone plan a visit. Make special closures visible on the destination instead of leaving an outdated schedule.
Leave special requests to the team
Allergen questions, large groups, and event bookings may need a person. Give those enquiries a clear contact path.
Instagram automation for restaurants
Save your typing for the questions that need you.
Before you switch it on
Keep reservations and enquiries distinct
A sent link is not a confirmed table. Tell guests where to complete their request and who confirms it. Do not answer specific dietary safety questions from a generic flow; let the responsible team review them. Update holiday closures and seasonal menus before leaving replies active through a busy weekend.
Campaign notes
Keep incoming message replies useful
Use the words people actually send, then choose a matching mode that suits the request. An exact campaign code and a broader question keyword serve different purposes. Test an expected request, a longer sentence, and an unrelated message. Review other active flows so the same incoming question does not produce several competing answers.
Prepared replies should answer known questions with information you maintain. They are not a reason to improvise product claims or make custom commitments. Leave a clear route to your team and respect the supported messaging window. If the destination changes, update and retest the reply before the next campaign.
Questions, answered.
Short answers about accounts, plans and setup. If your question is not covered here, our support team can help.
Does Linkar reserve tables?
It can send the reservation destination you configure. Table availability, booking, confirmation, and changes are managed by your restaurant’s existing process. The automated message should make that next step explicit.
Do I need to write code?
No. Use Linkar’s supported builder options to choose the interaction, write your messages, and configure the next steps. Supply your own destinations and test the full journey. If you need help with an account or delivery issue, contact support.
