For restaurants & cafes

A restaurant website with your menu, hours and directions

People search “restaurants near me” and decide in seconds. They want your menu, your hours and how to get there. If they can’t find them, they choose somewhere else.

Websites from R3 500 · Business tools from R5 000

Answer the three questions every hungry person asks

What’s on the menu, and what does it cost? Are you open right now? How do I get there? If those answers are scattered across old Facebook posts, people give up and go somewhere that makes it easy.

Your website puts all three on one fast page, with buttons to call you, WhatsApp you or open directions in Google Maps.

What your website can do

  • Your full menu with prices, easy to update
  • A live “open now / closed” sign based on your hours
  • Tap to call, WhatsApp and Google Maps directions
  • Table requests or online orders sent straight to you

A live “open now” sign

Your site shows whether you’re open right now, and when you next open or close, using South African time. So nobody drives over to a locked door.

How many customers pay for your website?

Enter what one customer usually spends with you.

Your website

About 20 customers pay back the website, and 3 a month cover the Care plan after that.

Based on takings, not profit. Uses the starting price of a Starter site (R3 500) and the Care plan at R450/month, so your own quote may differ.

Questions from restaurant owners

Can I change my menu prices?

Yes. With the Care or Care+ plan, menu and price updates are small edits, included every month. Edits sent by Thursday go live by Monday.

Can people order online for collection?

Yes. An ordering site lets customers choose from your menu and pay online or when they collect. Payment fees, like PayFast’s, are paid by you and listed in your quote.

Can people book a table?

Yes. A table request form sends each request straight to you on WhatsApp or email, and you confirm it with the guest.

What about public holidays and special hours?

Send me your holiday hours and I’ll update the site. With the Care or Care+ plan, that’s a small edit. The open/closed sign follows whatever hours are on your site.

How much will it cost?

Do I own it?

Yes. Once it’s paid in full, the website or tool is yours, and your domain is registered in your name.
