From a Menu in Instagram Posts to a Website That Makes People Want to Visit
An illustration of a website for a restaurant/café that's so far only relied on Instagram, with no official place to show off menu and ambience.
This is an illustrative concept, not a real client project — the data and results shown are examples to demonstrate what we can build.
People search for the menu & location on Google. What they find is just an old Instagram feed.
Without a website, prospects have to scroll Instagram to find the latest menu, prices, and location — information that's often outdated or hard to find.
| Info Being Searched | Count/Month | Easy to Find? |
|---|---|---|
| Menu & pricing | 410 | Hard |
| Operating hours | 260 | Hard |
| Location & parking | 180 | Google Maps |
| Reservation | 70 | Manual chat |
It's not a lack of great food. It's that basic info is hard to find.
Menu & pricing only in old posts
Menu posts are mixed with other content, hard for new prospects to search.
No single official place for ambience
The atmosphere, capacity, and facilities aren't clearly shown before people arrive.
Reservations still manual via chat
All table bookings are confirmed one by one via DM/WhatsApp.
One flow from finding the restaurant to a table already booked.
The website becomes the official info source, while reservations stay simple through connected WhatsApp.

Example: a restaurant with a frequently-changing seasonal menu.
An illustrative scenario based on common patterns at small-to-medium restaurants/cafés whose menu and promos update often. The figures below are examples to illustrate the system, not a claim of client results.
A menu & reservation website for a restaurant/café
The restaurant updates its seasonal menu and promos often, but so far only posts them on Instagram where they easily get buried. Prospects struggle to find the latest info.
- What's on the menu right now and how much does it cost?
- What does the atmosphere and capacity look like?
- How do I reserve a table?
