How long does it take to create my restaurant website?

Your website is ready in just 2 weeks, from configuration to launch. After your order, we start working immediately. You receive regular updates and can request changes throughout the process.

How much does a professional restaurant website cost?

Guestmaker starts at 99 euros per month for the website and digital menu. With reservations, floor plan and automatic guest emails it is 179 euros; with HACCP documentation and multiple menus, 259 euros. Individual design, domain, hosting, GDPR setup and the self-service dashboard are always included. There is no down payment and no commission per guest. The minimum term is 12 months, after which it is cancellable monthly.

What features are included in my website?

Every website includes responsive design, modern scroll animations, basic SEO, GDPR compliance, and access to our dashboard. Optionally, you can add a reservation system with interactive floor plan, Google Maps integration, menu design, and multilingual support.

Do I own the website, and what happens if I cancel?

The design, copy, photos and your domain belong to you. The software behind it is rented — the source code stays with us, as with any other hospitality system. Your data, however, is yours without restriction: menu, guest list and reservations can be exported in a structured format at any time, including on cancellation. If you want to run the site permanently without a rental contract, a perpetual licence is available; just ask us.

What support do you offer after launch?

You receive personal support, with a correspondingly higher priority on the upper tiers. We handle hosting, security updates, and technical maintenance. For questions or change requests, we are directly reachable by email.

Can I make changes after the launch?

Absolutely. Through the dashboard, you can change content, opening hours, menus, and images yourself at any time. For larger design changes or new features, simply contact us and we will create a transparent quote.

This is how your guest reads the menu at the table

Several menus, each with its own QR code

Food menu, drinks list, wine list, menu of the day — each one with its own QR code. The table gets exactly what belongs there.

The lunch menu appears on its own

Set a time window once, say 11:30 to 14:00. From then on the menu switches automatically — even on the day nobody in the service team thinks about it.

Allergens without a pile of notes

You record allergens and additives per dish, and the menu builds the legend from them automatically. Your dishes carry the labelling required by EU food information law, and your team no longer has to look things up in a folder.

Sold out with one tap

Out of goulash? One tap in the dashboard and the dish shows as sold out on the menu. The next morning the marker resets itself automatically.

House recommendations and pairings

Highlight your favourite dishes and suggest the matching wine or side. That way your menu keeps recommending, even when the service team has its hands full.

Easy to read for every guest

German or English at the touch of a button, a dark mode for the evening and a text size switch for everyone who left their reading glasses at home.

Price notice and QR code ready to print

The dashboard generates the price notice for your entrance, required by Austrian and German price indication rules, ready to print. The QR code downloads as an SVG — crisp on table stands, posters or business cards.

You see how often it is scanned

A simple scan statistic shows you how well your menu is being used. Without cookies and without profiling your guests.

Confirmation for your guest

Before the visit

A reminder that prevents empty tables

A friendly reminder reaches your guests in good time before their booking. Exactly when it goes out is something you set for your restaurant yourself.

When plans change

Cancelling by link

Guests cancel with one click instead of simply not turning up. You hear about it immediately and can give the table to someone else.

After the visit

The polite ask for a review

A short "how was it?" email goes out with a direct link to your Google profile. Guests who enjoyed the evening only need two more clicks.

No-shows on the record

Guests who did not turn up are noted in the dashboard. Over time you can see what you can rely on at the weekend.

Review button on the menu

The digital menu carries a way to leave a review as well — while the evening is still fresh in your guest's memory.

Less paperwork

The paperwork that otherwise waits until closing time

Two jobs every restaurant has to handle — from now on you do both in the same dashboard.

Hygiene documentation (HACCP)

Daily checklists with stored target temperature ranges for the cold room, the freezer and hot holding. Every entry is logged with a timestamp, and for a food safety inspection you print the report at the touch of a button. It supports you in meeting the documentation duty under EU Regulation 852/2004 — without folders full of paper slips.
