Restaurant websites built for hungry people on phones
Restaurant website visitors want four things, usually on a phone and often while already walking: the menu, the hours, where you are, and how to book or order. A restaurant website that delivers those instantly, with mouth-watering photos, fills more tables than any clever design.

Restaurant website questions
Why shouldn't my menu be a PDF?
PDF menus are slow and awkward on phones, hard to update and less useful for search. A text menu page loads fast and can be found by people searching for dishes.
Should I use delivery apps or my own ordering?
Many restaurants use both: delivery apps for reach, and their own ordering for regulars to avoid high commissions. Your website can promote direct ordering.
Can I update the menu myself?
Yes. I set it up so prices and dishes are easy to change, or the care plan can handle updates for you.
How much does a restaurant website cost?
Every project is quoted as one fixed price after a free audit. For typical market prices, see my guide to Website design cost.
