Themes

Five restaurant website templates, each designed for a different kind of place. Same features, completely different personality. Pick the one that feels like your restaurant.

Design philosophy

Accessibility first

Every theme passes WCAG 2.2 AA. Text contrast ratios are enforced. All images require alt text at the database level. Keyboard navigation works everywhere. Skip-to-content links, ARIA landmarks, focus indicators.

One codebase

All five themes render from the same page component. The theme token system controls colors, fonts, border radius, textures, and menu styles. No duplicate code. Change the theme column in the database and the whole site transforms.

Real restaurant needs

Every theme includes: menu with dietary flags, reservation booking, hours with today highlight, about page with editorial + photos, photo gallery, contact with directions, and an accessibility statement.
