Restaurant website design
Your restaurant deserves better than Wix.
Booking system included. A menu your staff can actually update. One-off price from £800, and no monthly fees ever.
“Agencies charge you £2,000 to set up a Wix site with a restaurant template. I took that personally.”
You're paying for a website you don't own.
And you're still sharing a template with thousands of other restaurants.
| Measure | Hand-coded | Wix / Squarespace |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | £0/mo on most builds | £27-£33/mo on the tiers restaurants need |
| Three-year cost | Nothing after the build | Roughly £970-£1,190, and still counting |
| Ownership | Source files handed over at launch | Cancel and the site disappears |
| PageSpeed | 97-100, all vitals green | Slowed by template and app overhead |
| Design | Built for your restaurant alone | A template thousands of others use |
Built for restaurants, cafés and bars.
Everything your site needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Table booking, built in
A reservation widget on your own page. Guests book in three taps and the confirmation email fires automatically. No per-cover fees to a booking portal.
A menu your staff update
Change dishes, prices and specials from a phone. No developer, no waiting, live in seconds.
Events and RSVPs
Take registrations for supper clubs, tastings and private hire straight into your inbox.
Mobile first, properly
Most restaurant discovery happens on a phone on the pavement. Hand-coded for speed, so Google ranks you and nobody bounces.
Found on Google
Local SEO and Google Business Profile setup, so you turn up when someone nearby searches for dinner.
£0/mo hosting
Most builds deploy on a free tier. No platform fees, no subscription, nothing owed after launch.
Case study · Kasto
Three days to retire a £33-a-month Wix site.
Chef Giuseppe wanted the site to feel like the restaurant: warm, cinematic and easy to keep fresh. He got a booking system his front-of-house team likes, a menu his kitchen updates themselves, and reservations up 400%.
“Our old Wix site was expensive and hard to manage. James delivered something beautiful - professional animations, a booking system, and a simple menu editor.”

Anything not covered here, email me and I'll answer the same day.
A reservation widget sits directly in your site - no third-party portal and no per-cover fees. Guests book from your page, the confirmation email fires automatically, and you manage availability from a simple dashboard. It works on every device.
Yes. Every restaurant build includes a CMS. Your staff update food and drinks, add specials or pull a dish, all from a phone. Changes go live in seconds.
No. Most restaurant builds deploy on a free tier, which is £0 a month. There are no ongoing platform fees. If your traffic ever grows past that threshold I'll tell you, but it's very high for a restaurant.
Three to five days for most restaurant builds, from the point your content is with me. Kasto went live in three.
I migrate off Wix and Squarespace regularly. Your content, URLs and search rankings come across with you, and I keep the old site live until the new one is ready.
Look at kastobali.com. Built in three days, it takes bookings, runs a self-serve menu, and holds its PageSpeed score. If your needs are different, tell me in the form below and I'll be honest about whether I'm the right fit.
