Website Builder & Your Public Page

Customize your restaurant's public ordering page with professional templates, your own colors, hero text, a photo gallery, SEO settings, and Google Analytics.

Your Public Page

Every restaurant on Wehanda gets a public ordering page at:

wehanda.com/restaurant/[your-slug]

This page is your customer-facing storefront. It includes your restaurant photos, about section, operating hours, a photo gallery, and the full ordering experience. You don't need a separate website — this page is fully functional and SEO-ready out of the box.

Two site modes (Dashboard → Website): run the full website (home page + about page + menu) or menu only if you just want the ordering page. In menu-only mode, visitors land directly on your menu.

You can also connect your own custom domain — see the Custom Domain section below — or embed ordering into a website you already have (see the Embed Ordering on Your Own Website article).

Choosing a Template

Go to Dashboard → Website and scroll to the Template section.

There are 9 templates to choose from:

  • Modern — full-bleed hero image, clean card layout, photo-forward design. Great for most restaurant types.
  • Bold — dark theme, split hero, high contrast typography. Ideal for upscale or nightlife-adjacent restaurants.
  • Minimal — airy, editorial, light and spacious. Works well for cafes, bakeries, and health-focused spots.
  • Classic — traditional layout with a clean serif feel. Good for established neighborhood restaurants.
  • Noir — deep black backgrounds, moody photography showcase. Perfect for fine dining or cocktail bars.
  • Organic — warm earth tones, natural textures. Ideal for farm-to-table, vegan, and health-food concepts.
  • Electric — vibrant color blocks, energetic. Great for fast-casual and street food.
  • Zen — calm, balanced, minimalist with Asian design influences. Suits sushi, ramen, and tea concepts.
  • Wehadaism — Wehanda's signature statement style: a full brand-color hero, bold type, and playful energy. For restaurants that want to be unmistakable.

All 9 templates are available on every plan.

The Menu Page — a Designed, View-Only Menu

Below the template picker you'll find the Menu Page section: a beautiful, read-only version of your menu — like your printed menu, but online. It always shows the same items and prices as your ordering page, comes in 8 designs (Elegant, Gallery, Bistro, Noir, Editorial, Retro, Showcase, Market), is built so Google and AI search can read every dish, and includes one-click QR Code Generation for tables and windows.

By default nothing changes on your site — your Menu link keeps opening the ordering page until you turn on the toggle in this section.

For the full walkthrough — choosing a design, the Menu link toggle, Google visibility, and step-by-step QR codes — see the dedicated Your Menu Page article in this Help Center.

Customizing Content

Hero Section

  • Headline — the main headline on your page (e.g., "Fresh Sushi, Zero Commission"). Keep it short and punchy — 5 to 8 words is ideal.
  • Subheadline — a supporting sentence describing your restaurant's key selling point or vibe.

About Section

  • About Title — a section header (e.g., "Our Story" or "Made with Love Since 2018")
  • About Body — 2 to 4 sentences about your restaurant. This is your chance to connect with customers personally.

Site Details — the finishing touches professional restaurant sites use:

  • Tagline — a short eyebrow line shown above your headline (e.g., "Wood-fired Neapolitan pizza")
  • Established year — displays an elegant "Est. 2014" mark on supported templates
  • Instagram URL / Facebook URL — adds social icons to your site's footer

Accent Color

Choose your brand color — it affects buttons, highlights, and interactive elements across your page. You can use any hex color code or pick from 8 presets.

Photo Gallery

Upload up to 10 food or restaurant photos. These appear in a gallery section on your page. Good gallery photos show food close-up and well-lit.

You can toggle gallery visibility in Show Gallery setting.

SEO Settings

Meta Description — a 1–2 sentence description that appears in Google search results under your restaurant's page title. Keep it between 120–160 characters. Example: "Authentic Japanese sushi and ramen in downtown Austin. Order pickup online — no commission, no app required."

SEO Keywords — comma-separated keywords relevant to your restaurant. Think about what someone would type into Google to find you: your cuisine type, neighborhood, city, and dish names. Example: "sushi Austin, Japanese restaurant downtown Austin, sushi delivery Austin, best ramen Austin TX"

Google Analytics ID — if you have a Google Analytics 4 property, paste your Measurement ID here (format: G-XXXXXXXXXX). This lets you track page views, customer behavior, and traffic sources for your ordering page.

These settings help your page appear in local search results. The more specific your keywords are to your location and cuisine, the better.

Display Toggles & Announcement Banner

Four optional settings control what appears on your site:

Show Gallery — shows/hides the photo gallery section on your page.

Show Hours on Home — displays your operating hours directly on the main page. Recommended for restaurants with specific or unusual hours.

Show Map Link — adds a "Get Directions" map link using your address. Requires your address to be filled in under Setup → Contact & Location.

Scroll & motion animations — controls the subtle entrance and scroll-reveal animations on your site. On by default; turn it off for a completely static page.

Announcement Banner — display a slim banner across the top of every page of your site (e.g., "Closed July 4th" or "New summer menu is here!"). Enable it, type your message, and pick a style (brand color, dark, warning, or info). Great for holiday hours, specials, and temporary notices.

Custom Domain

You can serve your Wehanda site on your own domain (e.g., www.yourrestaurant.com) — right from the dashboard, no support ticket needed.

  • Go to Dashboard → Website and scroll to the Custom Domain section.
  • Enter your domain and click Add.
  • At your domain registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, etc.), add the CNAME record shown on screen (pointing to cname.vercel-dns.com).
  • Back in Wehanda, click Verify. Once DNS propagates (usually minutes, occasionally up to 24 hours), your domain goes live with HTTPS automatically.

Your wehanda.com URL keeps working alongside the custom domain, so existing links and QR codes never break.

Preview and Publish

Click Preview to open your public page in a new tab before saving. This lets you see exactly what customers will see.

Click Save Changes to publish your updates. Changes take effect immediately for all visitors.

Your page automatically shows your current menu, operating hours, and live ordering — all synced from your dashboard settings.
