Who the Plant-Based Bistro template is for

For vegan bistros, vegetarian kitchens and salad bars. Daylight, greenery and a serif - the hero is a ROOM rather than a plate, because the category sells somewhere to sit that happens to be plant-based rather than a lecture about it. Menu, table bookings and a short changing board.

Make it yours

Name your growers and how often they deliver; it is the claim that separates this from a supermarket salad. Mark gluten on the menu rather than in the small print, and if you deliberately do not serve meat substitutes, say so - it reassures the people you want and warns the ones you do not.

Sell a Room, Not a Position

A plant-based restaurant that leads with ethics is talking to people who already agree. One that leads with a room worth sitting in reaches everybody else, including the group of four where only one person is vegan.

Photograph the space first

The hero on this template is a room rather than a plate on purpose. A visitor deciding where to take friends is choosing an atmosphere, and the food follows once they can picture the table.

Make the menu legible to a non-specialist

Name dishes in ordinary language and put the substitutions where they can be seen. The person doing the booking is often not the one with the dietary requirement, and they need to be able to answer for the table.

Say what you do for the sceptic

A line about the group where one person eats plants and three do not turns an objection into a reason to book. It is the most useful sentence this kind of site can carry.

Swap in photographs of your own room, rewrite the menu in your own words, and set your service times through availability and hours.
