Access Yelp On-the-Go in Your Buick


MT. PLEASANT, Mich -- Your Buick can now make on-the-go reservations at a variety of restaurants with just a few taps on your infotainment touchscreen. This feature is part of a recent update to Buick marketplace, the industry's first in-vehicle commerce platform - and is just another way Buick is using connectivity to enhance vehicles and create new and convenient customer experiences. 

Within the Marketplace app, Yelp reservations, allows customers to search for restaurants in a 25-mile radius of their vehicle's location and reserve a table for up to 10 people. Users can segment their search by types of cuisine, such as Seafood or Mexican, and view the restaurant's rating and general price range. The app also lets drivers call a restaurant directly. Sam Russell. director of Buick Marketing commented on the new feature saying: 

"Whether drivers want to make a dinner reservation on the go, or get recommendations for restaurants in a new city, the newly added Yelp Reservations brings simple convenience to the car, making new features like this available for vehicles already on the road enhances our vehicles with unexpected new benefits for our customers." 

With more than 160 million reviews, Yelp is a trusted resource for connecting consumers with great local businesses. With the availability of Yelp Reservations, Buick drivers can learn about the best restaurants nearby and easily book a table at participating restaurants. Vice President of Products at Yelp, Natarajan Subbiah said of the new integration: 

"Getting a table at an amazing restaurant should be easy, and we're excited to be making that possible by bringing Yelp Reservations directly into vehicles across the country. By embedding the Yelp Reservations booking experience into Buick Vehicles, drivers have a fun, easy way to discover and secure a table at the best restaurants in their area." 

Buick Marketplace is available on all 2017 and newer models in the U.S. depending on vehicle trim level. In addition to Yelp Reservations, Marketplace also allows Buick drivers to place mobile food and drink orders, pay for fuel at gas stations, and find dealer offers for vehicle service and the latest vehicle accessories, all from the convenience, safety, and security of their vehicle's touchscreen.
