Custom websites for restaurants, built flat — from $1,500, no monthly fees.
Multi-page restaurant sites with real menus, real photos, online ordering, and mobile-first design. Built by Jacob in Chattanooga, TN — anchored on a real 10-page restaurant build for The Grille at Lakeshore. Available to restaurants anywhere in the U.S.
A restaurant website has one job — and most miss it.
People aren't on your site to read marketing copy. They're trying to see the menu, find the hours, picture the room, and decide whether to come in or order out — usually from a phone, in under a minute. Here's where most sites blow that moment:
Unreadable menus
Tiny type, poor contrast, or a screenshot instead of real text. Guests bail before they find a single dish.
PDFs instead of real menu content
A linked PDF is invisible to Google. Search engines can't index your dishes, so you never show up for menu searches.
Bad mobile experience
Broken layouts, zoom-to-read menus, buttons too small to tap. Most restaurant traffic is mobile — if that's broken, the site's broken.
Weak or missing photos
Dark phone snaps of plates, stock images that don't match the room, or nothing at all. People shop with their eyes first.
No clear next step
No ordering link, no reservation link, no tap-to-call. Guests are ready to act — the site gives them nowhere to go.
Hours, address, and phone buried
The three things people actually came for, hidden in a footer or a contact page. They should be above the fold on every page.
What Rad Sites Co builds for restaurants.
The restaurant build is a custom multi-page site — typically 5 to 10 pages — hand-coded in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No templates, no page builder, no monthly platform fee. You own the domain and site files on day one.
Every piece is designed around how people actually use a restaurant site on a phone: find the menu, see the food, pick the next action.
Real menu pages, not a PDF
Your menu lives as real, indexable text — with JSON-LD schema on every dish so Google can read names, descriptions, and sections.
Ordering & reservation links
Your existing ordering platform (Toast, Dinner Delivered, ChowNow, etc.) or reservation system wired directly into the site — one tap from menu to checkout.
Image-heavy, fast-loading layouts
Photos compressed to WebP, sized to the layout, and lazy-loaded so the page feels instant on a phone — even on weak signal.
Hours, address, phone, map
The things people actually came for, placed where they're easy to find — with tap-to-call and tap-for-directions on mobile.
Mobile-first, always
Designed for a phone first. Desktop is a bonus layout, not the priority — because that's where your traffic actually is.
Schema, sitemap, Search Console
Restaurant and menu schema, a submitted sitemap, and Google Search Console verification — SEO basics done right, not sold as an upsell.
Pricing, plainly.
From $1,500 flat for a full multi-page restaurant site — real menu, real photos, online ordering, and per-dish schema — typically 5–10 days. The exact price depends on how many pages you need and how large your menu is. One-time payment with no contracts, no subscriptions, and no "website maintenance" retainer.
The Grille at Lakeshore — built, live, and working.
The restaurant playbook on this page isn't theory. It's pulled directly from a real, live build we made: a 10-page custom site for The Grille at Lakeshore, a French-inspired lakefront restaurant in Chattanooga, TN — our flagship portfolio piece.
The menu has 122+ dishes marked up in JSON-LD schema, the gallery ships 54+ optimized WebP photos, online ordering is wired through Dinner Delivered, and the site is verified in Google Search Console with the sitemap submitted.
The site looks awesome — Jacob did a great job. Exactly what we were hoping for.— The Grille at Lakeshore · Chattanooga, TN
Who this is — and isn't — the right build for.
The Lakeshore playbook maps cleanly onto most independent restaurant concepts. It's not the right tool for every food business, though — here's the honest breakdown.
Good fit
- Independent restaurants & cafés — menu-driven sites with ordering, reservations, and photos.
- Bars, breweries, taprooms — tap lists, food menus, events, tap-to-call for private bookings.
- Hospitality & event venues — lakefront, golf, wedding, and private-event concepts that lean on photos.
- Bakeries & small food concepts — image-first sites with a menu, hours, and a clear ordering or contact path.
- Food trucks & caterers — if you need a real site with menu, schedule, and booking instead of just a social profile.
Probably not a fit
- Large multi-location chains — if you need locator software, franchise portals, or integrated loyalty, this isn't that build.
- POS or ordering replacements — the site links to your existing ordering/reservation tools, it doesn't replace them.
- Full custom web apps — delivery platforms, ghost-kitchen dashboards, or large custom software projects.
- "Redesign only" jobs for Squarespace/Wix — this is a from-scratch hand-coded rebuild, not a template swap.
Not sure a restaurant site is the right move? Call or text Jacob and describe what you've got. He'll give you an honest answer — sometimes that's a full build, and sometimes it's that you don't need a new site at all.
