Restaurants, bars & breweries
A website that feels like walking in the door
A website designed for your restaurant, bar or brewery, with the menu, your hours and a request form for private parties already built in. Change a dish or a price the day it changes in the kitchen, show guests whether you're open right now, and keep every party request in one inbox. Free to build; from $15 a month, billed yearly, to go live.
Start from a design made for the dining room
Every one of these was designed in-house for food and drink — a grill, a brewery taproom, a vineyard, an estate that hosts weddings, a burger joint, a creamery, a coffee roaster. Open any of them full-screen, then make it yours: change the words, swap the photos, recolor the site.
The menu
A menu you can change before service
The menu is part of your site, not a PDF somebody has to remake: every dish, its description and its price, set in the template's own type. When the special changes or the price of crab goes up, edit the line right on the page and publish, and it's live before the doors open.
It reads properly on a phone, with no zooming into a scanned page, and because it's text rather than a picture, search engines can read every dish.
Starting from a printed menu or a PDF? On Frost Bar & Grill and Parker House, add photos of it or the PDF to the AI builder's chat, and the AI puts every dish, description and price on your menu page as printed. It's saved as a draft, so you check it before anyone sees it.
Hours & locations
Fewer calls asking whether you're open
Add each location's address and weekly hours once, and the locations block shows them to every guest: open now, or when you open next, with a link for directions. Run a taproom and a bottle shop, or a truck that moves around town? List every spot, each with its own hours and its own page.
Private events
Party requests with the details already on them
Put a request form on your private-dining or events page and ask what you need to know: the date, how many people, which room, whether there's food. Each request lands in your inbox with the answers on it, we email you about it, the guest gets an email saying it arrived, and their name, email and phone are saved to your contact list. Reply from the inbox and the whole conversation stays in one thread under their name, so the rehearsal dinner doesn't live in somebody's texts.
Add a newsletter checkbox and guests can join your list as they ask. They confirm by email first, so the list you send to is people who asked.
Newsletter
Tell the regulars what's new
A new menu, a tap takeover, the patio opening for the season, your holiday hours: send it to everyone who asked to hear from you. Campaigns carry your logo, in the colors and layout you pick, and Starter includes 5,000 email sends a month, so there's no separate email tool to pay for.

Pick a design
Start from one of the templates above. Every template is included on every plan, so the design you pick never changes what you pay.
Put in the menu and hours
Type in your dishes and prices, add your address and opening hours, then swap the photos for your own and recolor the site to match the room.
Go live
Connect your domain — bought separately, never bundled into a plan — and publish. Put the link in your Instagram bio and on your table cards, and the next guest reads tonight's menu before they arrive.
Questions restaurants ask
Starter, for everything on this page: the site, the menu, your hours and locations, request forms, your guest list, the newsletter, and a mailbox on your own domain. It's $25 a month, or $180 for the year, which works out to $15 a month. There are no setup fees and no contract, and building and previewing the whole site is free — you pay when you publish it.
Yes, from photos or a PDF. Once the AI builder has written your site, click Add your menu in its chat and add photos of each page or the PDF. The AI reads every dish, description and price as printed and puts them in your menu sections, saved as a draft you check before you publish. It works on Frost Bar & Grill, Parker House and Bitter Neighbor Brewing, whose beer lists show no prices, and on a custom theme the AI designs for a restaurant, café, bakery, bar, brewery, food truck, caterer or winery. Chomp, Cowlick Creamery and Vesper Bench Vineyards show the products in your store on their menus instead, so it isn't offered there. Reading a menu uses some of your plan's AI credits.
They can send a request. Most of these templates come with a table or party request form: the guest tells you when and how many are coming, it lands in your inbox, and you reply to confirm. A booking form can offer real times instead, with a set number of bookings per time slot, but it counts bookings rather than covers, so it suits tastings, tours and set seatings better than a full dining room. If you already use a reservations service, point your Reserve button at it.
Yes, on the Store plan: $35 a month, or $25 billed yearly. Mark the items guests collect, they pay through Stripe checkout, and one click in your orders emails them that it's ready. There's no pickup-time choice, tipping or add-ons, and orders go through only while the pickup location is open, so it suits bottles, coffee beans, pints to go and merchandise better than a full takeout menu. Tropic Arts takes 0% of every sale.
The bar, brewery and winery templates — Frost Bar & Grill, Bitter Neighbor Brewing and Vesper Bench Vineyards — open with a 21-and-over check. A visitor confirms once per visit, and anyone who says they're under 21 is sent to a page saying the site is age-restricted. It takes the visitor's word for it and doesn't check ID.
No. A domain is bought separately on every plan, either through us or from wherever you already own one. What the plan covers is the hosting, the SSL certificate, and a mailbox on that domain once it's connected.
No. The tag says what the design was drawn around, not who is allowed to use it — the gallery above is a shortcut, not a fence. Every template is available on every plan, so if a design filed under another industry suits your place better, use that one.
