Decide on a restaurant with friends: let the group vote
"I don't mind, you choose" — said by eight people in a row. Put the options on a board, drop the link in the chat, and let the points decide where the table gets booked.
What a board looks like
- The ramen place
- Tacos
- That new pizzeria
- The reliable Thai
- Burgers
- Somewhere with a terrace
Each voter places 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 points — every value once.
Why Eurovision-style points work here
One person's hard no matters as much as another's favourite. Ranking surfaces the place nobody will complain about, not just the one with the most first-choice votes.
How to run it
- Create a board and add your options (photos optional).
- Share the link or QR code with your group.
- Everyone hands out their points from their own phone.
- Finish the voting to reveal the scoreboard to everyone.
Tips
- Invite-only mode keeps a team vote to the team.
- Put dietary notes in the item title ("Tacos — good vegan options").
- Finish the voting at 11:30 and book for 12:30.
Questions
What's the fastest way to decide where to eat as a group?
Put four to six options on a board and share the link. Everyone ranks them on their phone in under a minute, and the points pick the place the most people are happy with.
Does it work for a big team?
Yes. There is no limit on voters, and invite-only mode restricts the vote to your colleagues' email addresses.
