Websites for cafes and restaurants

A hungry person asks three things: are you open, what do you serve, and can we get a table. We build cafe and restaurant sites that answer all three on the first screen.

What a cafe homepage needs

Open today, at the top

One line that says whether you are open today and until when. It is what a person standing outside with a phone wants first.

The menu as real text

Dishes and prices typed out, not a PDF and not a photo of the printed menu. Text reads on a phone without pinching, and a price change is a minute of typing.

A table in three taps

Party size, day, time and a mobile number. For five or more, a line that says to call, so a big group does not get a slot you cannot seat.

Hours for every day

Including the day you are closed. "Monday: Closed", written out, saves someone a wasted drive.

The diet question, answered

Gluten-free and vegetarian dishes marked on the menu, and one plain answer about what the kitchen can adjust.

Where you are and where to park

The street, the town, where to leave the car, and a button that opens directions.

What Google reads from a restaurant site.

Most people meet a cafe on Google before they meet its website. We set up the site so the two say the same thing.

  • A menu Google can findGoogle's markup for local businesses has a field for food establishments: "the fully-qualified URL of the menu". We point it at the menu page on your own site.
  • Your links on your profileA Business Profile can link to your menu, your reservations and your food orders. Google notes that links from third-party providers can appear there by themselves, so we check what is already on yours.
  • Holiday hours, twiceGoogle's advice: it is "a good idea to confirm your hours for official holidays", even when nothing changes. The same holiday list goes on the site and on the profile.
  • Text, not a picture of textThe accessibility standard says "text is used to convey information rather than images of text". A typed menu meets it, and a screen reader can read it aloud.

What the design shows.

The first screen says "Open today until 9 pm", and the table request sits right under the headline.

Under it come six dishes with their prices as text, and hours for every day with Monday marked closed. Then the four towns guests come from, and plain answers about reservations, gluten-free food, groups and parking. Open it on your phone and count the taps to a table.

Questions cafe owners ask.

Can I change the menu myself?

Yes. The site and its logins are yours, and the menu is text, so a change is typing, not a new PDF. If you would rather never log in, the care plan covers edits.

I take orders through an app. Can the site link to it?

Yes. An Order button opens the ordering page you already use.

What photos do you need from me?

Your own plates and your own room. A phone photo of a real dish by a window says more than a stock picture.

Is this only for cafes?

No. Restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops and food trucks have the same three questions to answer. Tell us about yours.
