The brief

The restaurant's site had been built years ago and nobody could edit it. Visitors on phones had to zoom into a PDF menu, the winter opening times were wrong, and every booking came by phone during service.

What we did

Kept the photos and story people liked; replaced everything else
Turned the PDF into a readable menu the team edits as the catch changes
Added a simple table request form
Moved the old pages over so links and search results still work

What changed

The menu reads properly on a phone
Seasonal hours are updated by the team in a minute
Fewer calls during service

Concept project A studio concept: the business is invented to show how we work, so these are what the site is designed to change, not results.
