Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 10 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Planning a meal shouldn't feel like juggling five different websites.

Today, planning a dinner means opening Google Maps to find locations, switching to TheFork's website to check availability, then maybe jumping onto Yelp or TripAdvisor just for reviews. You copy-paste names and dates across three tabs, constantly logging in and out of different accounts.

With this MCP server, your AI agent handles the whole mess. You tell it what you want—cuisine, date, people count—and it runs `search_restaurants` and `get_restaurant_reviews` instantly. It gives you a few options with ratings and open slots, so you just say 'Book that one,' and we're done.

TheFork MCP Server: Access Menus, Reviews, and Bookings.

Manual research means settling for the restaurant’s own vague menu PDF. You don't know if the pasta dishes are good or what special deals they have going on that month.

The agent runs `get_restaurant_menus` and `get_restaurant_reviews`, giving you real, current data points—what guests praise and where the wait times get bad. This changes dinner planning from a guessing game into an informed choice.

What your AI can actually do with this

This server connects your AI client directly to TheFork, Europe's major restaurant booking network. You won't have to juggle half a dozen tabs just trying to figure out where you wanna eat. Your agent handles it all in one chat thread.

Finding the Spot
Your AI client starts by pinpointing the right area or vibe. It uses search_locations to list dining neighborhoods across Europe, letting you narrow down the general zone first. You can then use list_cuisines to see every type of food available—Italian, Thai, whatever—so you know what's playing in that market.

To get a shortlist, you fire up search_restaurants, and it spits back a list of spots matching your criteria, complete with their general ratings and real-time availability status right away.

Getting the Details Right
Once you've got a few names, you need to know if they actually deliver. You can use get_restaurant to pull up the basics on any place—its address, operating hours, everything you need to show your ride-share driver. For deep research, it’s clutch: run get_restaurant_menus to get the current menu and see what special offers they're running right now.

Before you commit, you can check out get_restaurant_reviews, which pulls in recent guest feedback so you know if the hype is real or if people are complaining about slow service. You also have access to general restaurant information via get_restaurant that covers details beyond just location.

Checking Availability and Booking
Before booking, you gotta check if they even have seats for your crew. You run check_availability, telling the agent exactly how many people there are and which date you’re looking at; it confirms if specific tables are open. If everything checks out, you use create_reservation to lock in a table at that spot for a set time.

That's done. The booking is yours.

Managing Your Table
If plans crap out, or you need proof of what you booked, your agent has your back. You can run get_reservation anytime to pull up the full details of any existing booking, including those crucial confirmation numbers. And if you gotta bail? Just fire off cancel_reservation, and it permanently cancels that reservation for you.

This server gives your AI client complete control over the entire process, from initial search through final cancellation. It's everything you need in one place.

Questions you might have

How do I find restaurants in a specific area using search_locations? +

You use search_locations first to confirm the neighborhood or district name. Then, you run search_restaurants and include that location as a filter to get relevant results.

Can I check if a restaurant is open using check_availability? +

Yes. You must specify the date, time, and number of people when running check_availability. This tool confirms real-time table inventory for you.

What's the difference between get_restaurant and search_restaurants? +

search_restaurants gives you a list of options based on criteria. get_restaurant pulls all static details (address, general info) about one specific restaurant ID.

How do I cancel a booking? Do I use the cancel_reservation tool? +

Yes, you use cancel_reservation. Remember that this action is irreversible, so always confirm your details before letting the agent run it.

Before I use create_reservation, what do I need to know about authentication? +

You must provide a valid TheFork Partner API key in your request headers. The server cannot book anything without this credential. If the key is expired or missing, you'll receive an HTTP 401 Unauthorized error.

If I use get_restaurant_menus and it returns empty data, does that mean the restaurant has no menu? +

No, it usually means the API hasn't indexed current menu items for that location. The tool confirms the restaurant exists but lacks specific digital menu details. Try checking back later or using search_restaurants first.

What should I do if my search_restaurants query comes back with no results? +

The response will contain a 'No Results' payload, which is standard behavior and not an error. You need to adjust your parameters—check the date range or try broadening your location input. It just means nothing matched all criteria.

How do I check details for a booking using get_reservation if I don't know the confirmation number? +

You must pass at least the reservation ID and the associated client email address to guarantee accuracy. If you only provide the name, the tool will fail because names aren't unique identifiers.

Can I book a table at a specific restaurant for tonight? +

Yes! Use the check_availability tool to verify open time slots, then create_reservation to book directly. You can specify the date, time, party size, and any special requests.

What information do I get when searching for restaurants? +

Search results include restaurant names, ratings, cuisine types, locations, and real-time availability. You can then drill into any listing for full menus, reviews, and booking options.

Can I cancel a reservation through the AI agent? +

Yes. The cancel_reservation tool lets you cancel any existing booking by providing the reservation ID. Note that cancellation policies vary by restaurant.
