The full story
The situation
A growing café chain wanted one beautiful website that captured their cozy brand and let guests book a table in seconds across all their locations.
02 · BEFORE
The challenge
Reservations were handled over the phone and DMs, which meant missed bookings and a frustrating experience. Their old site was slow, dated, and didn't reflect the in-store vibe.
03 · AFTER
What we did
We designed a warm, photography-led site in React and Tailwind, then wired up a live bookings API so guests can reserve a table by location in real time. Menus and events update through a simple content layer the team manages themselves.
What we delivered
Every feature and capability built as part of this project.
Live, location-aware table reservations
Self-managed menus and events
Photography-led, mobile-first design
Fast, accessible, SEO-friendly pages
Services & technology used
“Bookings now run on autopilot and the site actually feels like walking into one of our cafés. Our staff got their phones back.”
