Websites for restaurants & cafés in Havering & Essex

See your new website before you pay a penny.

I’ll design your new homepage for free, with your own dishes, your menu and a book-a-table button front and centre. Like it? I build the rest in about 2 weeks. £0 to build, from £99/month, and nothing to pay until it’s live.

How it works

Nothing to pay until it’s live.

Four steps. The first three cost you nothing, and you can stop at any point before it goes live.

  1. 1£0

    Free mockup.

    I design your new homepage first, with your own dishes and menu. No obligation.

  2. 2£0

    Quick chat.

    By phone or in person: your menu, photos, opening hours and how you take bookings.

  3. 3£0

    I build it.

    Usually about 2 weeks. You check everything before it goes live.

  4. 4

    Live. Then you pay.

    Your first payment is the day it goes live. Then hosting, updates and a monthly report, and menu changes by WhatsApp.

What every site includes

Everything a hungry customer looks for.

Book a table, front and centre

Linked straight to your booking system (ResDiary, OpenTable, SevenRooms and more), or a simple booking request form.

A menu that’s never out of date

Real text, not a PDF, so it reads well on a phone and Google can see it. Send me changes on WhatsApp and I’ll update it.

Opening hours that match Google

The same hours on your site and your Google listing, so nobody turns up to a locked door.

Private hire & events enquiries

A proper form for parties, Christmas bookings and events, sent straight to your phone.

Dietary info, clearly marked

Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free tags on every dish, and a clear allergen note.

Mobile-first and fast

Built for the phone in your customer’s hand, and quick on patchy signal outside.

Tap to call, tap for directions

One tap to ring you, or to open the route in their maps app.

Set up properly for Google

Page titles, a sitemap and a check of your Google Business Profile, so you show up when people search nearby.

Your own domain

Your name on the web, registered to you, and it stays yours.

Your customers, direct

Keep more of every booking.

Delivery and booking apps charge commission or fees on the customers they send you. Your own website gives people a direct way to book, call and order, straight from you.

Your menu. Your bookings. Your website.

Example

What yours could look like.

A homepage I designed for a made-up Hornchurch restaurant: the menu, booking and private dining, all easy on a phone.

The restaurant is made up, for illustration only.

Plans

Two simple plans. £0 to build.

On either plan, your website is designed and built for free. You pay monthly for hosting, updates and looking after it, and you can switch plans at any time.

£99 a month is about £3.25 a day. A couple of extra tables a month, or one private party a year, and it has probably paid for itself.

Both plans include the essentials. Growth adds the extras ticked in lime.

The small print, in big print.

The important bits, in plain English. No asterisks.

  1. Nothing to pay until your site is live and you’re happy with it.

  2. 6-month minimum term from the day it goes live, then rolling monthly with 30 days’ notice.

  3. Your domain is registered in your name. It’s always yours.

  4. Your words and photos are always yours. If you ever leave, I’ll send them over and point your domain wherever you like.

  5. Switch between plans at any time.

  6. Bigger jobs (new pages, new features) are always quoted upfront before any work starts.

FAQ

Fair questions.

Something else on your mind? Just ask, in plain English.

What’s the catch?

There isn’t a hidden one. Building a website takes time, so instead of charging for it upfront, it’s covered by your monthly plan. That’s why there’s a 6-month minimum once your site is live. Before then you pay nothing, and if you don’t like the mockup, you just say no.

Can I change the menu whenever I like?

Yes. Send me the changes on WhatsApp (a photo of the new menu is fine) and I’ll update it. Small changes like this are included every month.

Will it work with my booking system?

Yes. I can link ResDiary, OpenTable, SevenRooms, Tablein, Google bookings and most others. If you don’t use one, I’ll set up a simple booking request form that goes straight to your phone.

What about Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats?

Keep them if they work for you. Your website adds a direct way to book, call and see your menu, and it can link to your delivery pages too.

Is the website really free to build?

Yes. There’s nothing to pay until your site is live and you’re happy with it. After that, the build is covered by your monthly plan, which has a 6-month minimum.

What happens after 6 months?

It rolls monthly. Stay as long as it’s working for you, or leave with 30 days’ notice. Your domain, words and photos go with you.

Do I own my website?

Your domain, your words and your photos are always yours. The design and the tools that run it (hosting, review requests, missed-call texts and your monthly report) are part of your plan. Want to own a site outright instead? Just ask and I’ll give you a price.

What do I need to do?

Send me your menu, some photos and your opening hours. After that, just WhatsApp any changes.

Where are you based?

Hornchurch. I work across Havering and Essex, and I’m happy to pop in and meet you.
