Websites for bars and restaurants
Most bar websites are out of date the week after they go live, because keeping one current is somebody's job and nobody has time. We build yours on your own domain, and your taps, menu and specials can update themselves from the same phone edit that changes your TV.
That menu is a working bar's, updating from their bar as they change it.
Plenty of people will build a bar a website. Every one of them hands you a page that is accurate the day it ships and wrong by the next keg change, because the beer list lives in the website and the beer lives in the cellar.
If you are on Tapline, your website reads the same list as your TV. Kick a keg, change the tap on your phone, and the wall, the QR menu and the website all change together. No one else selling websites to bars does this.
Wing night, the Friday fish fry, a holiday closing. Set the days once and they appear on the site when they are on and come off when they are not, the same way they do on the board.
Not on Tapline and not planning to be? Fine. Text or email the change and we make it the same day. That is in the care plan, and for most bars it is easier than any editor they have been handed before.
Your menu, your events, your hours: each one a link you can give Google, put on Facebook or print on a QR code, instead of a single page people have to scroll and hunt through.
This is the site we built for Potter's Field, the Irish pub on Potters Road, from their own menu and photographs. Its menu, prices and specials are not typed into the page: they load live from Tapline, the same place a Tapline bar's TV reads them, so a change made on a phone reaches the website and the wall together.
A demonstration we made to show Potter's Field what their site could be. It is not their official website.
One payment to build it, and an optional $49 a month to look after it, or $39 while you are on Tapline. The build is a third to a half of what a freelancer quotes, because we have done the hard part of the template already, and the monthly includes the changes.
A home page and a page each for what's on tap, your menu, your specials and events, and your hours and location, with a menu bar across the top. Your photographs and your words, on your domain, live in about a week. Want it all on one scrolling page instead? Same price.
Everything your current site does, so nothing is lost in the switch: party and catering enquiries, job applications, a booking form or your Resy link, your ordering and gift card buttons, a photo gallery, pictures beside the dishes, every social account, and your Google listing pointed at the new pages. Two rounds of changes.
Hosting, the security certificate, somebody watching that it is up, and up to three small changes a month whenever you ask. $39 a month while you are on Tapline, because at that point the site keeps most of itself current. On both, that is $88 a month for your boards, your QR menu and your website.
You own the domain. You own the content. Month to month, no contract, and if you leave we hand you the files. We put that first because we know what the last person did to you.
Prices here are for a bar or restaurant site of the size most of our neighbours have. If yours is bigger or stranger than that, say so and we will quote it properly rather than pretend.
Tell us what you have now, or send us the address of the site you are stuck with. We will come back to you with what we would do and what it would cost.
