Café website that gets people through the door

The brief we set ourselves

On a phone, a café website has one job: show today’s coffee and the opening hours before the visitor walks past the door. Most café sites in Prague get this wrong: a photo-heavy homepage that takes four seconds to appear, a menu locked in a PDF, and prices you can only guess at.

This showcase demonstrates how we build for cafés: the menu and prices are plain, fast HTML, opening hours and the map sit above the fold on mobile, and nothing on the page waits for JavaScript.

Decisions worth copying

• Prices in the open. Espresso, flat white, cakes, each with a price right in the text, no “ask at the counter”. A visitor who already knows a coffee is CZK 65 walks in relaxed.
• Menu as content, not a download. Search engines can read an HTML menu. That is how “café near me” or “good coffee Prague” finds a place. It is the cheapest SEO a café can do.
• Mobile-first, literally. Most visits are someone standing on the pavement deciding whether to come in. Opening hours, the address, one-tap directions and the menu are all reachable without a single pinch-zoom.
• Photos on a diet. Pastries and latte art sell, but they ship as AVIF at display size, which is most of how the whole page stays near 220 kB.

The numbers

Speed figures on this page are measured, not promised. Run the build through PageSpeed Insights yourself. Czech serves locals, English and German serve tourists and expats, each with correct hreflang.

In practice: a presentation site of this scope starts at CZK 25,000 and goes live 2–4 weeks after you send the content. The exact line items are on the pricing page. Want this for your own café? Start with web design or ask us directly via the contact page.
