Errands
Eat on the route, while the kitchen's still serving
A restaurant is only useful if it's on your way and actually serving when you get there. Mini Detour finds one along your route and checks the timing so you don't arrive between services.

Why timing matters for Restaurant
Restaurants don't just open and close — they serve in windows, and the kitchen shuts long before the lights do. Mini Detour treats meal timing as high-sensitivity and checks a place's hours against your arrival.
How Mini Detour plans a Restaurant stop
Add a restaurant to your plan with a realistic sit-down window; Mini Detour ranks options by detour and keeps the downstream arrival times honest. A proper meal is budgeted as a proper meal, not a pit stop.
Questions
Does it know about lunch and dinner services?
It uses the opening hours where they're published and checks them against your arrival; a place closed between services is flagged rather than suggested.
Can I set how long the meal takes?
Yes. The dwell time is yours to set, and Mini Detour uses it to keep the rest of the plan accurate.
