What goes on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen decides whether someone keeps reading or calls the place down the street. We put four things there: what you serve in plain words, whether you're open right now, an order or reserve button, and a link to the menu. Big photos and a welcome paragraph come after, for the people who scroll.
- A short line that says the kind of food and the neighborhood
- Today's hours, with a note when holiday hours apply
- An Order or Reserve button that opens the right tool on the first tap
- A Menu button that opens a fast, readable menu page, never a large download
- Address, parking or transit notes, and a map link that opens the phone's map app
Typical pages
| Page | What it does |
|---|---|
| Home | Open or closed today, the order button, a few dishes and how to find you |
| Menu | Sections, dishes, prices and dietary notes as real text that search engines and screen readers can read |
| Order | Links to pickup, delivery and gift cards, grouped so nobody hunts for them |
| Catering and events | What you cater, minimums if you have them, and a request form |
| About | Optional; who runs the kitchen and what the place is like |
| Visit | Hours, address, parking, accessibility and a contact form for everything else |
Hours that match everywhere
Wrong hours are the fastest way to lose a regular. We store your hours in one place on the site and show them on every page that needs them, so you change them once. Before launch we check them against your Google Business Profile and the ordering apps you list, and note any that disagree so you can fix them at the source.
Photos and speed
Food sells on pictures, and pictures are what make most restaurant sites slow. We size and compress every photo for the screen it appears on and test the home and menu pages on an ordinary phone connection. If your photos are dark or dated, we send a short shot list you can work through on a quiet afternoon with a phone and window light.
Local search
Each page gets a clear title and description, your business details and menu are marked up for search engines, and the menu is text, so a search for a dish can find it. We also set up the site so your map listing, your website and your ordering links all point to each other.
Questions
We only have a menu board. Can you work from a photo?
Yes. Send a clear photo of the board or the printed menu and we'll type it up for you to check.
Can you take reservations on the site?
We link or embed the reservation tool you use. If you don't use one, we can list what to compare before you choose.
Is your menu online right now the one you're cooking? Tell us what you serve, how people order today and where the website lets you down.
