Websites for restaurants

Websites for Miami restaurants, cafes and bakeries.

Before anyone walks in, they check your menu and your hours. They do it on a phone, usually on the sidewalk, and they decide in about five seconds. Your site has to answer both, fast.

We build sites for South Florida restaurants, cafes, bakeries and food trucks. You see a mock-up of your homepage first, free.

What is on it

What a restaurant site needs

Five pages cover almost everything a hungry stranger wants to know. Here is what goes on each one.

01

Home

Your name, your best photo, today’s hours, and a button for the thing people want most: the menu, or a way to order.

02

Menu

Real text, not a PDF someone has to pinch and zoom. Sections, prices and the notes people look for, like vegetarian or gluten free.

03

Hours and visit

Hours, address, parking, a map and a link that opens directions. Holiday hours up before the holiday, not after.

04

Catering and parties

A short form for big orders and private events: the date, the headcount and what they have in mind.

05

Our story

Who is behind the counter, and where the recipes came from. People pick the place that has a face.

Built in

+ Order and reservation buttons that open the tools you already use.
+ A phone number people can tap, on every page.
+ Photos sized to load quickly on a weak signal.
+ Hours that match your Google profile, so they are not different in two places.

The designs

Three looks for a restaurant

There are 25 designs in all. These three suit this kind of business well, and we start with the one that fits you best.

These are design concepts for made-up businesses, not clients. Yours is built from your own details.

Three steps

How it works for a restaurant

1

Send your name and Maps link

We read your reviews, your photos and the menu details that are already public on your Google profile.

2

See your homepage

A mock-up in a look that fits the place. A cafe on Calle Ocho should not feel like a steakhouse.

3

Say yes, and we build it

Menu, hours and the catering form, with a first version in about two weeks. From $249 a month.

Monthly plans

One monthly price, and the site is looked after. From $249 a month.

+ A website designed and written for you, up to 5 pages
+ Hosting, updates and fixes
+ A monthly check of pages, forms and links
+ Up to 4 small changes a month

Want to be found on Google? Growth plans add up to 10 pages, new blog posts and a quarterly search tune-up. Monthly plans have a twelve-month minimum, set out in your quote. See every plan explained

  • Should my menu be on the site, or just a PDF?

    On the page, as text. Phones make PDFs hard to read, search engines read them poorly, and a PDF is a chore to change. Text can be updated in minutes, and we can still offer a printable version.

  • Can people order or reserve from the site?

    Yes, with a button that opens whatever you already use: a delivery app, a reservation service, or your own phone number. We link to it. We do not build a new ordering system you would have to learn.

  • I already have Instagram and a Google listing. Why a website?

    Your listing and your Instagram are good at being found. The website is where the full menu, the catering details and the story live, in a layout nobody else controls. Many people also trust a business more when it has its own address.

  • My menu changes every week. Is that a problem?

    No. Send us the new menu and the text is changed for you, and small changes are part of every plan. Daily specials work best as one short line you can send us in a message.

  • Can the site be in English and Spanish?

    Yes, and plenty of Miami places want both. It means every page is written twice, so say so when you ask for the mock-up and we will plan the pages around it.

See your restaurant’s homepage first.

Send your name and Maps link. We put together a homepage for you, free, with nothing to sign.
