What it does
Running a restaurant leaves little time for building a website from scratch. This theme starts you off with ready-made layouts for restaurants, coffee shops, organic food blogs and catering services, so you can pick a demo close to your business and adjust it. Editing happens through the Codeless Builder, a front-end editor where you change the look of your pages in real time and see the result as you work, with no coding required.
Beyond the layouts, the theme covers the practical needs of a food business. An online reservation system lets guests book from your site, and custom product menus present your dishes in an organized way. WooCommerce compatibility means you can add a shop for food products, merchandise or catering services. WPBakery Visual Composer is included as a backend editing option, the Gutenberg block editor is supported, and the design is responsive, retina ready and cross-browser compatible.
Best for
- Restaurants that want online table reservations
- Cafes and coffee shops building their first website
- Catering services selling packages through WooCommerce
