Web Design & Development for Restaurants & Hospitality
A website that books tables and rooms — not just a menu PDF that takes 10 seconds to load on mobile.
The Problem
What restaurants & hospitality get wrong about web design & development
Most restaurant websites are afterthoughts — a template from a site builder with a PDF menu link, hours that haven't been updated, and no online ordering or reservation capability. Hotel websites are often outdated, slow, and lose direct bookings to OTAs because the booking experience is clunky. In hospitality, the website decision often happens on a phone at 6 PM or during trip planning on a tablet: 'does this look good, can I see the menu, can I book a table?' If the answer to any of those takes more than 5 seconds, the guest goes to the next option — or straight to DoorDash and Expedia.
Our Approach
How ABMG does it differently
We build hospitality websites around the moment of decision. For restaurants: the menu loads instantly (no PDF downloads), reservations are one tap away (integrated with OpenTable, Resy, or native booking), and the visual design makes the food look as good as it tastes. Online ordering integration keeps delivery and takeout revenue on your platform instead of third-party apps taking 15–30% commission. For hotels: direct booking with best-rate guarantee front and center, room galleries that compete with OTA presentations, and package/event pages that drive incremental revenue. Both get mobile-first design because 70%+ of hospitality searches happen on phones, speed optimization for Core Web Vitals, and integration with your reservation/booking system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should our restaurant website have online ordering?
If you do any delivery or takeout, absolutely. Third-party apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats take 15–30% commission on every order. Native online ordering on your website costs a fraction of that. Even capturing 20% of your delivery orders directly saves thousands per month. We integrate with systems that handle the ordering without the commission hit.
How important is website speed for a restaurant?
Critical. When someone searches 'restaurants near me' at 6 PM, they're making a decision in 60 seconds. If your site takes 5 seconds to load or the menu is a 3MB PDF download, they've already moved to the next result. Our sites load in under 2 seconds on mobile with instant menu display — no downloads, no pinch-to-zoom PDF pages.
Can a hotel website really compete with OTA booking experiences?
The booking experience needs to be at parity — easy date selection, clear room options, transparent pricing. Where your website wins is the value proposition: 'book direct for best rate + free upgrade/breakfast/late checkout.' OTAs can't offer property-specific incentives. A well-designed direct booking page with a clear advantage over OTA pricing converts guests who were comparison-shopping on Expedia.
