To reward our awesome foodie community, every booking with TheFork accumulates unique Yums points, which can be redeemed in the form of a tasty discount at one of our many partner restaurants down the line. Here’s how it works: 1 reservation = 100 Yums (Y) Once you've accumulated enough you can enjoy amazing offers which converts to: 1,000 Y = €10 / CHF15 / AUD$20 / £20 loyalty discount! 2,000 Y = €25 / CHF35 / AUD$50 / £50 loyalty discount! Keep an eye out for double Yums and other ways to earn more Yums as you book. We love hearing from our TheFork foodie community!

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: EATTABLE at 100% against TheFork's 58%. EATTABLE also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). TheFork's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (62K vs 4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
TheFork holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TheFork has 62K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of TheFork's written reviews are positive against 100% of EATTABLE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TheFork ships an update fortnightly, EATTABLE every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
