Website builders for restaurants, and where rowbo fits

The ordering platforms will sell a restaurant a website; rowbo sells the website itself, at £30 a month, from your Google listing. The menu photos, the hours and the reviews come across, and your own .com is in the price. Owner.com, Butternut and WebMeccano each do it their own way. Free to look first, no card.

What you get for £30 a month

  • A real multi-page website, built from the Google listing you already have.
  • Your own .com, registered and pointed at it, in the price.
  • Hosting and updates, so there is nothing else to renew and nothing to install.
  • Your photos, your hours, your services and your reviews, already on the page.
  • A site Google can index and ChatGPT can read.
  • Live in a couple of minutes, and free to look at before you keep it.
  • No setup fee, no minimum term, and you can cancel any month.

Why owners pick rowbo

A couple deciding where to eat on Friday search Google first, then open a website and read the menu. Your menu photos, your hours and your reviews are already on your Google listing, and that is what most restaurant sites are made of. We read it and build the pages, so there is no brief and nothing for you to write. The site goes live on your own .com in a couple of minutes, and the £30 covers the hosting, the domain and the updates.

If you want online ordering and a branded app taking orders, Owner.com is built for that; we build the website itself.

How is this different from a restaurant website builder?

We build from your Google listing, so there’s no brief and the menu photos come across. The site is live a couple of minutes later. Owner.com adds ordering and an app, which is the thing you are paying for there.
