Best free restaurant and cafe website templates

A restaurant site has one job: get a hungry person from a search result to a table or an order in under a minute. That means your menu, hours, address and a booking or ordering button matter far more than animations. Few free templates are made only for restaurants, so we picked the ones that already have the right bones, starting with one built around a coffee shop.

15 free templates that suit restaurant and cafe sites, ranked by how well they fit. Templates marked "adapts well" were not designed for this kind of site but have the right structure.

What a restaurant and cafe website needs

Whichever template you choose, make sure your site has these. Tick them off as you go; your ticks are saved on this device.

Tip: Put the menu in HTML, not a PDF. Search engines read text menus, and people on phones can actually use them.

Frequently asked questions

Are these restaurant and cafe templates really free?
Yes. Every template here is free to download. Templates under the MIT license can be used for any site, including client work, as long as you keep the license file. Templates under CC BY 3.0 (HTML5 UP) are free for commercial use if you credit the maker.
Do I need to know how to code?
You need to be comfortable editing HTML text and swapping images. If you are not, a website builder may suit you better. Our guide template, website builder or designer? helps you decide.
Can I see a template on my phone before I download it?
Yes. Every template page shows a phone screenshot, and templates with a live preview let you switch between desktop, tablet and phone sizes.
Which template should I pick?
Start with the one whose layout matches the pages you need, not the one with the prettiest photos, because you will replace the photos. Our template finder suggests three in under a minute.
