Restaurant websites
Restaurant websites built around the booking.
Fast on a phone, clear about what you serve, and one short step from a reservation, with the search foundations built in from day one. Designed and built by a founder with around 20 years in hospitality.
The starting point
When a new website makes sense
The site is slow on a phone, or hard for your team to update.
Menus only exist as PDFs or images.
Guests ring to ask what the website should already answer: hours, parking, dietary options, private dining.
Booking takes too many steps, or the button is hard to find.
Private dining, events or weddings have no proper page.
The scope
What a project usually covers
Every project is scoped separately; this is the usual starting point.
Design for phones first, then desktop
Menus that are easy to read on a phone and quick for your team to update
A booking button on every page, linked to the booking system you already use
Pages for private dining, events, groups and the occasions you want more of
Address, hours and directions in text, with structured data for your restaurant, menu and opening hours
Page titles, descriptions and loading speed set up for search from launch
Old pages redirected properly, so existing search visibility isn't thrown away
Analytics and booking-click tracking set up before launch
Copy written in restaurant language, and a walkthrough so your team can make everyday updates
The founder
Built from inside hospitality
Alex has spent around 20 years in hospitality, including hands-on restaurant management. That shows in the details: menus that match what the kitchen actually sends out, booking routes that suit how the floor runs, and answers to the questions guests usually phone about.

Questions
Questions
How long does a restaurant website take?
It depends on the number of pages and integrations. We agree a timeline during scoping, before work starts.
Can you work with our booking system?
Yes. The site links to the booking system you already use, such as OpenTable, with a booking button on every page.
Can our team update menus and opening hours?
Yes. Everyday changes like menus, hours and events don't need a developer, and we show your team how to make them.
What happens to our current Google visibility?
Old pages are mapped to new ones with permanent redirects before launch, and Search Console is checked afterwards. Nobody can guarantee rankings through a rebuild, but a careless launch is the most common way to lose them. How to rebrand a restaurant without losing search visibility
