Squarespace can handle 3 of the 4 website jobs restaurants usually need, using its own features and add-ons. Still to check before you commit: pickup or delivery orders from your own site.
Menus that read well on a phone. The menu block shows menus, sections and items as text, which reads well on a phone.
Table bookings without a phone call. The OpenTable block takes date, time and party size, and needs the restaurant registered on OpenTable.
Gift vouchers. Gift cards are sold as unique digital codes that are applied at checkout.
Pickup or delivery orders from your own site. Food ordering would come from a third-party ordering service linked from the site.
Features outside Squarespace's blocks need code injection or a third-party service.
Only part of the site exports if you move later.
All Squarespace plans include managed hosting.
Custom code can be added through code injection on plans that include it.
Extra features come from built-in blocks and linked services such as Acuity Scheduling and OpenTable.
Requires scoping means we have not confirmed it for this platform yet. We check it before quoting.
