Before they get in touch
What customers check before choosing cafés and coffee shops
- 1
Are you open now?
Cafés change hours with the seasons and close early on quiet days. If the site’s wrong, people go elsewhere.
- 2
What's on the menu?
Breakfast, lunch, cakes, and whether there’s anything vegan or gluten free. People look before they choose.
- 3
Can I bring the dog?
Dogs, buggies, wheelchairs, laptops. Small policies decide whether a group picks you.
- 4
Is there room for us?
Groups, walkers and families want to know about seating, booking and whether you take card.

The write-up
What a café website needs to answer
Most people find a café on their phone, standing in the street or sitting in the car. They want three things quickly: are you open, what’s on the menu, and is it the sort of place they’d like. A café website that answers those in the first few seconds will do more for you than a long page about your story.
Opening hours are where most café sites go wrong. Winter hours, early closing on a Monday, the week you shut for a holiday. If the website and Google disagree, people don’t take the chance. We keep your hours in one clear place, update them when you email us, and help you keep your Google Business Profile in line.
The menu should be a real web page. Photos of a chalkboard are hard to read and PDFs are fiddly on a phone. A simple menu with prices, clear vegan and gluten free markings and a note on allergens is easier for customers and easier for search engines. Specials can change as often as you like within your ten monthly changes.
Then the details that decide where a group goes. Are dogs welcome, is there room for a buggy, is there step-free access, do you take card. Walking groups and coach parties need a way to ask about space. If you run events, from live music to supper clubs, they go on a list that tidies itself away once the date has passed. Real photos of your café and your food finish the job.

Questions from cafés and coffee shops
Can you put my menu online so it's easy to read?
Yes. We build the menu as a proper web page rather than a PDF or photo, so it reads well on a phone and shows up in search. You can email us changes to prices and specials and we’ll update it.
Can customers book a table?
If you use a booking system already, we’ll link to it clearly from every page. If not, we can set up a simple enquiry form for groups and private hire that comes straight to your inbox.
What about allergen information?
We’ll write a clear allergen section from the details you give us, plus a note asking customers to check with staff about specials. The information comes from you, but we make it easy to find and read.
Can I change opening hours for the winter?
Yes. Send us the new hours and we’ll update the site, usually the same day. We’ll also remind you to change your Google Business Profile so the two match. Ten changes a month are included.
How much does it cost?
£47 a month, including design, writing, hosting and ten changes a month. There’s no setup fee and no contract.
