Restaurant websites in Stoke-on-Trent, built to bring in work.

The problem
What is costing you enquiries.
Common reasons a restaurant site loses enquiries. Some of them will not apply to you; the free audit says which do.
- The menu is a scanned PDF or a photo, so it is slow on a phone, cannot be read by search engines and is often a season out of date.
- Opening hours on the website disagree with Google, so diners turn up to a closed door or assume you are shut when you are not.
- The booking button opens a third-party page with no sign of your restaurant, and some people back out rather than hand details to a site they do not recognise.
- Private dining, set menus for groups and gift vouchers are mentioned nowhere, so the higher-value enquiries go to places that spell them out.
- Allergen and dietary information is missing or says only to ask your server, which puts off anyone booking for a guest with an allergy.
What is included
One rebuild, everything in it.
Your menus written as real web pages, split into lunch, dinner, Sunday and set menus, with dietary markings you can keep up to date.
Your existing booking system placed on the site so the table can be booked without leaving your pages.
A page for private dining, group bookings and celebrations, with capacities, set menu options and a short enquiry form.
Your Google Business Profile set up with the right categories, hours, menu link and booking link, matching the website.
Photos arranged to show the room, the bar and the food, compressed so the pages still load quickly on mobile data.
Structured information about cuisine, price range, hours and location, so search engines and AI assistants can describe the restaurant accurately.
Getting found in Stoke-on-Trent
Local search, done properly.
Stoke-on-Trent is a Staffordshire city famous for its pottery industry, with a population of 260,000.
In a large town, diners weigh you against places across the whole area and in the next town along, because a twenty-minute drive is nothing for a birthday meal. The site needs to make the occasion obvious: group bookings, a set menu for parties, parking and how late the kitchen serves. People planning an evening out want to know if it is worth the trip, so photos of the room as it really looks, not just plated food, carry weight here.
Stoke-on-Trent is large enough that the first page for restaurant searches is genuinely contested, and directories take several of the slots. Ranking above a directory is easier than ranking above a competitor, because a directory cannot say anything specific about the work. Firms in Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stafford show up in the same results, because Google's idea of "near me" does not stop at the city boundary.
Stoke-on-Trent is known for its ceramics heritage, oatcake, and industrial regeneration. That shapes who is searching, what they expect to pay and how far they will travel, so a site for restaurants here should read like it belongs in Staffordshire, not like a template with the town name swapped in.

Questions
The ones that come up.
Is it worth having a page just for private dining and parties?
For most restaurants with a private room, a large table or a set menu for groups, yes. Someone organising a birthday or a work dinner is looking for capacity, a sample menu, a deposit policy and a way to ask about a date. When all of that sits on one page with a short form, the enquiry arrives with the details you need to reply.
We rely on review sites. Does our own website still matter?
Review sites are where many diners find you, but they show everyone else alongside you and you do not control what appears there. Your own site is the one place where the menu, the hours, the booking button and the story of the restaurant are exactly as you want them. It is also what Google and AI assistants read to check the facts about you.
Should we show allergen information on the website?
It helps. Many people booking for a group are checking on behalf of a guest with an allergy or a dietary need, and they want reassurance before they book. The site can mark dishes clearly and explain how the kitchen handles allergens, while pointing people to speak to staff on the day. The details come from you, since you know your kitchen.
Can we sell gift vouchers through the website?
Yes, where you already use a voucher service or payment provider, the site can link to it or hold its purchase button on a dedicated page. Vouchers sell mostly around Christmas, Mother's Day and Valentine's Day, so the page can be brought forward on the homepage at those times. If you do not sell them online yet, the page can take enquiries.
