Conclusion: What Can We Learn From Bakery & Pastry Shop Websites?
These examples have given us insight into what makes up an effective website design, including color, logo usage and appearance, navigation, prominent menu items, and content.
A few important topics that become very clear as we look at the examples here are:
Visual impression: Great bar websites make their sites easy to navigate and easy to understand. A visual voice consistent with your bakery’s brand allows your potential customers to quickly and easily understand what the site is about.
Contact information easily visible: Website visitors need to be able to find information quickly and easily. Visitors will expect to see your contact information upon landing on your bar’s site: Hours of operation, address, and phone number.
Include the right content: Do you include specific pages for your key services and about page. Is your website connected to your social media? Writing more content on a news or blog page will help your bar show up higher on Google and other search engines.
We hope you found some inspiration to create your own bar website or to improve an existing one.
