The problem
Most cafés live on Instagram. Customers can't find the menu, the hours or a way to book without sending a message and waiting.
Who it's for.
- Locals aged 22–45Phone in hand, arriving from Instagram.
- Lebanese visiting homeIn summer, deciding where to eat.
- TouristsLooking for breakfast near Mar Mikhael.
What I built.
Four things that matter.
- 01Changes with the time of day.Morning shows breakfast and coffee, evening shows mezze and the terrace. The site follows the clock on the visitor's phone.
- 02A menu made for thumbs.Categories stay pinned while you scroll, with clear tags for vegetarian, spicy and nuts.
- 03Bookings land on WhatsApp.Pick a day, time and party size, and WhatsApp opens with the message already written.
- 04Find us in one tap.Hours, address and a map that only loads when you tap it, so the page stays fast.
