Restaurant Websites That
Fill Tables and Drive Orders.
We build restaurant websites with built-in online ordering, reservation integration, and a menu CMS your staff can update in seconds — cutting third-party commission fees and putting you in control.
The Challenge
Why restaurants lose margin on their own digital presence.
Third-party platforms take 15-30% of every order
DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub charge commissions that eat your already-thin margins. You're paying a platform to serve your own customers — regulars who would gladly order directly if you gave them a fast, convenient option. A first-party ordering system keeps the revenue and the customer data.
Menu updates require a developer or take weeks
Your seasonal menu launches next Friday but updating the website means emailing a developer, waiting for a revision cycle, and hoping the prices are right. When menu changes require technical intervention, your website is always out of date. A CMS-driven menu lets any manager update items, prices, and photos in minutes.
Reservation systems that bounce guests to third-party sites
Embedding an OpenTable widget that redirects guests off your website breaks the brand experience and costs you $2.50 per cover. An integrated reservation system keeps the booking flow on your domain, captures guest data for your marketing list, and eliminates per-cover fees.
Multi-location sites with inconsistent information
When each location has different hours, menus, and contact info but your website treats them as one entity, guests show up to the wrong location or call the wrong number. A multi-location architecture with location-specific pages, menus, and ordering ensures every guest gets accurate information for their nearest restaurant.
Our Approach
Restaurant web development that protects your margins.
We build restaurant websites with commission-free online ordering, CMS-managed menus, integrated reservations, and multi-location support — designed to shift customers from third-party platforms to your own channels.
Commission-free online ordering
We build a native ordering system with menu browsing, cart management, Stripe payment processing, and kitchen ticket printing via your POS integration. Orders flow directly to your kitchen — no marketplace commissions, no shared customer data. Repeat customers can reorder past meals in two taps.
CMS-driven menu management
We build a menu editor where managers add items, update prices, toggle availability, and upload photos without touching code. Menu data is structured for SEO with schema markup, and changes publish instantly. Seasonal menus, daily specials, and happy hour items are managed through scheduled visibility rules.
Integrated reservation system
We build or integrate a reservation system that runs on your domain — guests select party size, date, time, and special requests without leaving your site. Confirmations go out via SMS and email, and the system syncs with your floor management tool. Guest data stays in your CRM for loyalty marketing.
Multi-location architecture
We build location-specific pages with unique hours, menus, ordering links, and map embeds. A location selector on the homepage routes guests to their nearest restaurant. Each location's structured data (LocalBusiness schema, Google Maps integration) maximizes visibility in local search for that specific address.

FAQ
Web Development for Restaurants — common questions.
Your direct ordering system offers the same convenience — mobile-optimized browsing, Apple Pay and Google Pay, order tracking — but without 15-30% commission fees. Customers who already know your restaurant prefer ordering directly when the experience is just as smooth. We also integrate with your own delivery drivers or third-party logistics if you want delivery without the marketplace commission.
Yes. The menu CMS is designed for non-technical staff. Managers log in, add or edit items with drag-and-drop reordering, upload photos, adjust prices, and toggle availability. Changes publish to the live site instantly. We train your team during launch and provide documentation so new hires can manage the menu from day one.
We integrate with Toast, Square, Clover, Revel, and custom POS systems. Online orders print as kitchen tickets automatically, and sales data syncs for reporting. If your POS has an API, we can connect it. For POS systems without APIs, we integrate through middleware services like Chowly or ItsaCheckmate.
Each location has its own menu configuration in the CMS, with its own items, prices, hours, and availability rules. Location managers edit only their own menu. Shared items (like signature dishes) can be managed centrally and inherited by all locations. The ordering system routes each order to the correct location's kitchen.
A single-location restaurant site with online ordering, menu CMS, and reservation integration takes four to six weeks. Multi-location builds with three to five locations run six to eight weeks. We deliver the menu and reservation features first so you can launch quickly, then add the ordering system with POS integration in the second phase.
