Restaurant Website Templates

Menu, hours and directions. Everything else is secondary.

People visit a restaurant website for three things: the menu, whether you are open, and how to get to you. Almost every one of them is on a phone, often standing outside deciding where to eat. A restaurant site that buries those behind an intro animation loses covers.

The set below covers trattoria, pizzeria, bakery, coffee, cocktail bar, vegan, food truck and catering. Each one puts those three answers within a tap, then adds the commercial extras: reservations, ordering links, private events and photos of the room.

What a good restaurant website needs

A real menu, not a PDF

A PDF menu is the most common mistake on restaurant sites. It pinches and zooms badly on a phone, it is invisible to Google, and it goes stale the moment you change a price.

Hours that are correct today

Opening hours are the most-checked element on the page. They need to be text rather than baked into an image, so search engines can show them directly in results.

One-tap directions and phone

A tappable number and a maps link that opens the native app. On mobile these beat every other call to action on a restaurant site.

Photos of the food and the room

Diners are deciding on atmosphere as much as menu. A few honest photos of the space convert better than stock imagery of food you do not serve.

Reservations without friction

Whether you take bookings on the page or link to a platform, it should be reachable from the header on every page, not just the home page.

How to pick the right one

Frequently asked questions

Can I update the menu myself?

Yes. Click any dish and edit it, or describe the change in plain English, for example asking to add three specials to the lunch menu. No developer and no ticket.

Can I take reservations or online orders?

You can build reservation enquiry forms into the site and link out to whichever ordering platform you already use. Payments, where you take them, run through your own Stripe account.

Will my restaurant show up on Google?

Every site ships with the structured data, meta tags and sitemap search engines need, and your menu and hours are real text rather than images, which is what lets Google surface them.

Do these work for cafes, bars and bakeries?

Yes. The set includes bakery, coffee, cocktail bar, juice, vegan, pizzeria, food truck and catering layouts alongside full-service restaurants.

Three restaurant layouts, each built for a different menu

The Saltbrook Kitchen sample (a made-up restaurant) splits its menu into snacks and small plates, vegetable plates and house-made pasta. Each template below suits one of those kinds of restaurant, and each has a different layout, not a colour swap.

How these were picked

Three catalogue templates picked because their menus and first buttons differ, plus the Saltbrook Kitchen sample as the demonstration. Checked 27 September 2026. Every design here is from the We.Inc library and is labelled as a sample or template. None is a customer site, and no entry claims results.

1. Low-Lit Black Cocktail Bar

Restaurant template from the We.Inc library (demo site: The Tonic Room). Open it

Task: A bar or small-plates room where the drinks list leads.

Design choice: The Tonic Room's menu is Menu, The Bar, Hours, Reserve, and it opens on "What we are pouring this week".

Limitation: Food is secondary in the layout; add a small plates section.

2. Green Plant-Based Restaurant

Restaurant template from the We.Inc library (demo site: Basil). Open it

Task: A vegetable-led or vegan kitchen that changes the menu weekly.

Design choice: Basil: "Vegetables get top billing here", with "This week's plates" and a "Book a table" link.

Limitation: Weekly plates mean weekly edits; ask the AI or click to update.

3. Sage Green Italian Restaurant

Restaurant template from the We.Inc library (demo site: Lucia Trattoria). Open it

Task: A trattoria known for pasta.

Design choice: Lucia Trattoria: "Handmade pasta, poured wine, and the long Sunday table", with "Reserve a table", "View the menu" and hours and address under the hero.

Limitation: Placeholder "Est. 1987" and a family story; replace with yours.

4. Saltbrook Kitchen

Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it

Task: The demonstration: a short weekly menu cooked over hardwood.

Design choice: "Reserve a table" and "See this week's menu"; snacks $9 to $16, vegetable plates $14 to $19, pasta $22 to $27.

Limitation: Made-up prices and reviews; it shows structure, not proof.

Walkthrough: a guest booking dinner on the Saltbrook sample

  1. They see "A short menu, cooked over hardwood, changed weekly" and tap "See this week's menu".
  2. "How we serve dinner" lists each part of the menu with price ranges.
  3. "Good to know" answers reservations, allergies, parking and children.
  4. "Come have dinner" closes with hours and address. "Reserve a table" should link to your booking tool.
