Toptable (styled toptable) was an online restaurant booker covering the UK as well as major cities in Europe and New York City established in 2000 and bought by OpenTable in 2010. HistoryToptable was founded in 2000 by entrepreneur Karen Hanton for restaurant owners to advertise their venues and book customers directly.[1] Toptable sat over 1.5 million diners in 2006 when it completed its first full year.[2] Toptable lists more than 5,000 restaurants in the UK, plus Paris, Dublin, and New York City, providing online menus, reviews and 360° images of each restaurant. Diners can read and compare information about restaurants before their table booking online. Today, 2.3 million visitors view the Toptable website each month and, in February 2010, a dedicated Toptable iPhone app was launched.[3] The toptable Android app has been available, at least since Sep 2013[4] Toptable also provides a restaurant booking engine for Time Out, British Airways, The Guardian, The Times Online, Visit London and View London. In 2006 toptable bought City Eating, incorporating London Eating for an undisclosed sum.[5] Investors in Toptable include football manager Sir Alex Ferguson, celebrity chef Gary Rhodes and Diageo.[6] In September 2010, toptable was acquired by competitor OpenTable for approximately 55 million USD.[7] References1. ^{{cite web| url = http://www.e-consultancy.com/internetdecade/hi/karen-hanton-86.html| title = Karen Hanton| accessdate = 2007-02-27| year = 2006| work = E-consultancy.com}} 2. ^{{cite news| url = http://www.ft.com/cms/s/aded508c-cbc1-11da-a7bf-0000779e2340.html| title = No reservations about the future| author = Jonathon Moules| publisher = Financial Times| date = 2006-04-14| accessdate = 2007-02-27}} 3. ^Growing Business Success Stories: Toptable 4. ^http://www.appbrain.com/app/toptable-restaurant-bookings/com.toptable 5. ^{{cite news|title= Toptable swallows rival online booking operator|url= http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/technology/article635828.ece|work= Times Online|date= 2006-09-12|accessdate= 2010-07-12}} 6. ^{{cite news |title= A taste for the top|url= https://www.telegraph.co.uk/connected/main.jhtml?xml=/connected/2001/06/07/ecfpro07.xml|work= Telegraph.co.uk|date= 2007-06-07|accessdate= 2007-02-27}} 7. ^{{Cite web|title = OpenTable Acquires European Competitor TopTable for $55 Million|website= Mashable|date = September 16, 2010|url = http://mashable.com/2010/09/16/opentable-toptable/| first=Ben|last=Parr|archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20180319144753/https://mashable.com/2010/09/16/opentable-toptable/|archivedate=March 19, 2018|accessdate=March 19, 2018}} External links
