Website for coffee shops: hours, menu, and events
A coffee shop site is mostly a front door. People want to know if you're open, where you are, and what's on the menu. Get those right and add events to give regulars a reason to come back.
Short answer
A coffee shop website needs hours, address, and parking above the fold, a menu with real prices as text, photos of the actual drinks and space, and upcoming events. 'Is it open right now?' is the question most visitors arrive with.
What to put on it
- A menu with prices
- Location, hours, and map
- A gallery of your work
- Reviews from real customers
- Events and markets
- Answers to common questions
What earns trust
- Full menu with real prices posted on the site itself, not a PDF
- Street address, hours, and parking above the fold; 'is it open now' is the #1 query
- Photos of the actual food and room plus a named owner or chef with provenance
- Ingredient sourcing and dietary accommodations stated plainly
How to show prices
Exact prices on every menu item, as text. No 'from' prices for drinks. Beans and merch, if you sell them, get a small shop.
Questions your customers will ask
Answer these on your site, in plain text. They are what people type into Google and ask ChatGPT before they buy or book.
- Hours, location, and parking
- Do you take reservations or is it walk-in?
- Gluten-free, vegan, and allergy options
- Private events, buyouts, and catering
- Takeout and delivery options
Mistakes to skip
- Hours buried in the footer or only on Google. Put them at the top of the site too.
- Stock photos of latte art. Your own room and your own cups are what make people visit.
- A menu image instead of text, invisible to search and AI.
