Nine places within five miles of Padstow
already take their bookings this way.
NomNom is a restaurant booking system, and it is written in Padstow. Fifteen Cornish venues run on it — from Trevone Bay to Penzance — and you can walk into most of them and ask how they get on with it. £29.99 a month per venue, no commission, no contract. The person who writes it will come out and show you it himself.
Locked into a contract? We wait it out — see the switching offer.
Who is already on it
Every one of these is a live NomNom customer, not a pilot and not a logo we borrowed. Their own websites are linked from our customers page.

Why there are so many here
Because this is where it is written. NomNom is built by Kernow Software, from Padstow, and it started with the venues we could walk to. Word travelled the way it does in a county this size — one landlord mentioning it to another — which is why the map has a cluster in it rather than an even scatter.
That is not a marketing story. It is the reason we can say things a national platform cannot, and mean them.
I will come to you, and show you myself
I am Graham. I wrote NomNom, I still write it every day, and I answer the support emails. There is no tier one, and there is nobody for me to escalate you to — which cuts both ways, and is the honest reason I would rather meet you than send you a brochure.
So let me come out and run you through it properly. An hour, at your place, at a time that suits your service rather than mine. I would set it up as your venue while I am there — your rooms, your tables, your Sunday lunch, your actual opening times — because a demo account full of invented bookings tells you nothing about whether this fits the way you work.
And ask me anything. Whatever your question is — what happens to your data, how the deposits work, what you do if you lose the internet mid-service, what it does badly — you get the answer from the person who made that decision, on the spot. Not "I will check with the product team and come back to you."
If it turns out NomNom is not right for you, that is a perfectly good outcome and I will say so. You will have had an hour of somebody looking properly at how your bookings work, which is worth having either way. No follow-up sequence, no pressure.
— Graham, Padstow
And who answers at seven on a Saturday night
Same person. Same county. Whether it is a genuine fault or a table plan that needs changing twenty minutes before service, you get somebody who can actually do something about it — not a ticket queue, not a chat window that opens on Monday, not an account manager three time zones away who has never seen your dining room.
The same goes for the ordinary things. Nobody here needs telling that the second week of August is not the week to be changing anything, or that a wet Tuesday in February is a completely different business from a wet Tuesday in July. We are busy the same weeks you are, and quiet the same weeks you are.
Things in here because a Cornish venue asked
Not roadmap items a product manager thought of. Each of these exists because somebody down the road needed it.
Small enough to answer. Not small.
The fair question about buying software from someone down the road is whether they will still be there in three years, and whether the thing is properly built. So, plainly:
NomNom runs venues from Padstow to Aberdeen — Devon, London, Plymouth and Dumfries too. It takes card payments and deposits through Stripe, it is bookable directly from Google search and maps, and it has a public API that third-party EPOS vendors build against. It runs on a browser, an iPad, an Android tablet and a phone, and the diary is the same one on all of them.
It is a proper piece of software that happens to be written in Cornwall. Those are two separate claims and both of them are true.
What it costs
Already tied into another system? It is free until your current contract ends, up to 12 months, your bookings and guest records move across free, and we will build you a website for £0 and then £15 a month. See the switching offer.
Come and say hello
A real person reads every one of these and you will get a real answer back, not a calendar link. Happy to come to you — that is rather the point.
