Menu, hours, map, one button
The first screens answer tonight. Not a hospitality poem and a PDF from last spring.
All use cases
Use case · Dining room
A restaurant site that answers tonight.
Menu, hours, a map, and a reserve or pickup button. Frontpage builds that, then you update a dish or Saturday hours by chat.

- Map and reserve
- Google reviews
Free plan to start. No credit card. This is a dining-room page, not a trade site.
What Frontpage does
Frontpage builds a restaurant site that answers tonight. You update it by chat.
Someone nearby is deciding where to eat in the next hour. They want the menu, tonight's hours, a map, and a way to reserve or order pickup. Frontpage builds that. Reserve and pickup buttons point at OpenTable, Square, the phone, or the delivery link you already use. Change a dish or Saturday hours with a sentence. If you run espresso more than a dining room, use the coffee shop builder.
Show up when people look for dinner
Clean titles and structure so the kitchen has a path into search and Maps. See local rank.
Reviews next to the special
Google reviews can sit on the site, so a guest sees proof before they book.
Numbers the floor can use
Analytics are built in. Growth Advisor suggests on Growth and Scale. See which dishes and buttons get tapped.

The problem
Hungry guests do not read hospitality poems.
A lot of restaurant sites are brochures. Hero photo, a paragraph about hospitality, a PDF menu, hours on Facebook, reserve link in the footer. A guest on a phone, standing on the sidewalk, closes the tab and walks into whoever answered first.
The menu is a PDF from last spring
Guests want tonight's dishes and prices on the page. A buried file is how you lose the walk-in.
Hours and the map are a scavenger hunt
Closed Mondays, last seating, Sunday brunch. If that is not on the first screen, they are already looking at the next kitchen.
Reserve and pickup hide in the footer
The button has to sit next to the dish. Point it at OpenTable, the phone, or the pickup tool you already use.
The site looks like a template
Stock food photos and generic copy do not match the room. The page has to feel like Ember & Oak — or whoever you are.
How it works
Three steps to a site that answers tonight.
- 01
Describe the room
Name, cuisine, location, hours, the feel. Add photos and a menu, or let it draft. Getting started.
- 02
Check it like a guest
Frontpage builds hero, menu, hours, map, reviews, and a reserve or pickup button. Review it on a phone. Change anything by chat.
- 03
Publish on the restaurant's name
Connect the domain. Watch taps in analytics. Publish and connect your domain.
On the first screens
What the dining room gets on the first screens.
Looks like the room. Shows the menu. Gets found. Gives you numbers.
The restaurant's brand
Colors, type, logo, and voice. See first impressions.
The full menu
Sections, dishes, prices. Update it by chat when the board changes.
Hours and a map
Opening hours, last seating, address, map link.
Reserve and pickup links
Buttons that point at the tools you already use. Not a Frontpage-invented host stand.
Google reviews on the site
Next to the offer. Read the reviews guide.
Search and growth
Titles built for dinner search. Growth Advisor from Growth ($49). Autopilot on Scale ($99).
The gaps we fill
What Frontpage puts on a restaurant site.
Answer tonight. Get found. Keep the board and the site in the same conversation.
- 01
Build around tonight
A reserved table, a pickup order, or a guest walking in. Menu, photos, and the button sit in that order.
- 02
Put the answers where guests look
Sections, prices, hours, address, map. A hungry guest should not hunt.
- 03
Link to tools you already use
OpenTable, the phone, Square, delivery. Frontpage does not invent a booking desk. See Square Online.
- 04
Update by chat before service
Add a special, 86 a dish, change Saturday hours. See editing by chatting.

See it in action
Ember & Oak briefs the room the way the pass already talks.
A wood-fired pizzeria describes the service, then changes a pie or the wine list with another sentence.
If a pie is 86'd or Saturday hours move, say so.
Wood-fired pizzeria in Austin, Ember & Oak. Open 5 to 10, closed Mondays. Hero, whole menu with prices, hours, map, Google reviews, reserve-a-table. Warm, not corporate.
Done. Warm hero, Reserve a table, hours, map, menu by section, reviews. Want the wine list and a few dish photos?
Yes. Add takeout after 8, and point reserve at our OpenTable page. Do not invent a booking form.
Wine list, takeout line, and OpenTable link are on. Analytics are on, so you can see which pies and which button guests tap.

Questions
What owners ask before they publish.
What does Frontpage put on a restaurant site?
Hero, menu with prices, hours, map, photos, Google reviews, and a button to reserve, order pickup, or get directions. On your domain, in your brand.
Can guests book a table or order pickup?
The page links reserve and pickup to OpenTable, the phone, Square, or the delivery tools you already use. Frontpage does not run a native booking desk. See Square Online.
How is this different from the coffee shop page?
Coffee shops need drinks, pastry, and a pickup line. Dining rooms need a full menu, seatings, and a reserve path. Use the coffee shop builder if you run espresso more than a dining room.
Can we put Google reviews on the site?
Yes. Next to the menu. Read Google reviews for small business websites.
How do menu and hour changes work?
By chatting. When a dish is 86'd or Saturday hours move, say so. See editing by chatting.
Does Autopilot change the menu without asking?
No. Autopilot is Scale only. Growth Advisor never auto-publishes. You accept or decline. See pricing.
