Striped Horse

Web Design and Development for Restaurants

Before a diner walks through your door, they have already visited your website. They have looked at your menu, judged your atmosphere from your photos, and decided whether your restaurant feels worth their time. We design restaurant websites that make that decision easy, with the visual quality, brand personality, and functionality that turns browsers into bookings.

Striped Horse handles brand, design, development, and marketing under one roof so every part of your digital presence works as hard as your food does. We work with restaurants, food brands, catering companies, and hospitality groups of all sizes.

Restaurant Website Design Services

Most restaurant websites are built to look presentable, not to drive business. The menu is buried in a PDF, the photos are stock, the brand feels borrowed, and the reservation flow takes four clicks too many. In an industry where 69% of diners say a restaurant's website influences their decision to visit, that is not a minor problem. Striped Horse builds restaurant websites that do the job they are supposed to do. Attract, impress, and convert.

Restaurant Branding

Your brand is what makes a diner choose you over the restaurant next door before they have tasted a single dish. We build restaurant brands that communicate your atmosphere, personality, and culinary identity at a glance, from logo and visual identity to menu design, brand guidelines, and the full visual story that makes your restaurant memorable.

Restaurant Website Design

We design restaurant websites that make people hungry before they finish scrolling. Stunning food photography integration, intuitive menus, reservation flows that do not frustrate, and a visual experience that matches the atmosphere of your space whether you are a neighborhood cafe, a fast casual chain, or a fine dining destination.

Restaurant Website Development

Built on WordPress, Webflow, or the platform that fits your business. We handle online ordering integrations, reservation system connections, Google Maps embedding, and CMS setup that lets your team update menus, hours, and specials without needing a developer.

UI/UX Design

A restaurant website has one job for most visitors: help them find the menu, check the hours, and book a table as quickly as possible. We design user flows that make every one of those actions feel effortless, on desktop and on mobile where most of your visitors are coming from.

Digital Marketing

Getting found by hungry diners in your area requires more than a good looking website. Our digital marketing team builds local SEO strategies, Google Business Profile optimization, paid social campaigns, and content marketing tailored specifically to how people discover and choose restaurants and food brands online.

Brands we've built for

Brand and Website Built Together

Your restaurant's brand and website should feel like the same place. We design both together so the visual identity, the photography direction, the menu design, and the site experience all tell the same story from the first impression to the last click.

We Know How Diners Make Decisions

Most diners decide where to eat before they leave the house. We design restaurant websites that win that decision, with the right visual cues, the right information in the right place, and a booking or ordering flow that never gets in the way.

Built for Every Type of Food Business

From single location neighborhood spots to multi-location chains, fine dining destinations, and food and beverage brands, we design around what your specific business needs to accomplish online. No templates, no one-size-fits-all approach.

Built to Convert From Day One

We come from a marketing background and it shows. Every layout, every user flow, and every call to action is built to turn visitors into reservations, online orders, and repeat customers.

Multi-Platform Expertise

Fluent across WordPress, Webflow, Drupal, and more. We recommend the platform that fits how your team works and how your business scales, not the one that is easiest for us to build on.

We Stay After Launch

We stick around after go-live with ongoing support for menu updates, seasonal changes, new locations, and anything else your restaurant needs as it grows.

01.
Discovery and Strategy
We start by learning your restaurant, your audience, and your goals. That means understanding your cuisine, your atmosphere, your target diner, and what your website needs to do, whether that is driving reservations, online orders, catering inquiries, or all three. This stage sets the foundation for everything that follows.
02.
Design and Prototyping
We build wireframes and visual mockups before a single line of code is written. For restaurants that means designing around your food photography, your brand personality, and the experience you want visitors to feel before they ever walk through the door. You review and approve at every stage so there are no surprises.
03.
Development and QA
Your site is built on the platform that fits your business. We handle online ordering integrations, reservation system connections, menu management, Google Maps embedding, and any other functionality your restaurant needs. We test thoroughly across devices and browsers, with special attention to mobile since most of your visitors are coming from their phones.
04.
Launch
Once everything passes QA and you give the green light, we handle the full launch. Clean handoff, zero downtime, and everything configured correctly from day one so your site performs the way it should from the first visit.
05.
Ongoing Support
We stay on after launch for menu updates, seasonal changes, new location pages, and anything else your restaurant needs. Your website stays current so your diners always have the right information.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

"They're great in every category, and not only the work they do is great, but they are very accommodating and communicative. I was very fortunate to have Danielle leading the web development team-- it was no easy task to take over a year-long project along with a bunch of new devs to work with into a working product in less than two months' time. One of the challenging project-wise for our university website project and she got the team doing good work and managed to get where we need to be. I will continue to work with her!"
