Website Examples
Updated
Here are 6 coffee shop websites you can open and click through. Some are quiet and plain. Some are loud and bright. All of them put the same few things where a person in a hurry can find them: when you open, what you pour, what it costs, and how to get to the door.
Every site on this page is a concept design. We made up the shops and built the websites to show our work. They are not real businesses and they are not our clients. Our real client work is on the client work page.

Concept designSpecialty coffee bar, a made-up shop
Concept designNeighborhood coffee shop, a made-up shop
Concept designAll-day café, a made-up shop

These are concept designs for made-up shops, not client sites. Each card opens the full concept in a new tab.
A coffee shop website needs five things: your hours, your address, your menu with prices, a phone number, and a few real photos of the room and the drinks. Put the hours and the address on the first screen. Most people who land on your site are already on the way and want to know one thing: are you open.
Not at the bottom. Not inside a picture. Write them as plain text near the top, and write the odd days too, like a holiday or a day you close early.
Type the menu out as words on the page. A photo of the chalkboard or a PDF means pinching and zooming with one thumb while holding a dog leash.
People want to know if a latte is four dollars or seven before they walk over. A short list with a price on each line is enough.
Pick the one thing you want people to do: order ahead, get directions, or see the menu. Put that button at the top and again at the bottom.
Your counter, your cups, your people. Three good photos from a phone do more than twenty stock pictures of somebody else's latte.
Open two or three of the concepts on your phone, not your laptop. Count how many seconds it takes to find the hours. Look at how short the menus are. Notice that each page has one main button and uses it more than once. Then open your own site and run the same test.
Want to see real shops, not concepts? Look at the sites we built for Charlie's Coffee Shop and Local Ice, or see all client work.
Yours would not be one of these six. It starts from your own counter, your own cups and the menu you really pour. Sign up in about 5 minutes. Type your shop's name and see a free preview of your new site before you pay. No call needed.
