Use a dedicated page group or location card for every restaurant. Each location keeps its own address, phone numbers, menus, specials, ordering links and directions together, while shared branding and navigation connect the experience. That is the structure used for THE ZEN.

Case Study
The Zen
The Zen operates multiple restaurant locations serving Hakka Chinese, Thai and Guyanese cuisine across Whitby, Stouffville, Toronto and Scarborough. We built one website that keeps each location’s menus, lunch specials and contact details separate while maintaining a consistent brand experience.

Interactive Showcase
Explore the Multi-Location Dining Journey
See how diners choose a ZEN restaurant, check that location's menu, then call, order online or get directions.


01 Homepage
Pick Your ZEN Location First
The homepage leads into separate location cards, each with its own address, phone numbers and buttons for menus, lunch specials, online ordering and directions.

02 Menus
A Menu Page for Each Restaurant
The Stouffville menu page keeps call, menu, take-out, lunch special, online ordering and gallery buttons in one bar, with Thai and Hakka sections below.

03 Mobile
Location Details Sized for Phones
On a phone, each location card stacks its address, phone numbers and action buttons, so diners can reach the right restaurant's menu or directions quickly.

The Results
Four Locations, One Connected Brand
-
01
The Challenge
Keep menus, specials and contact details for four restaurants separate without splitting the brand.
-
02
Our Solution
A new WordPress website built from scratch around location pathways, searchable HTML menus and direct actions.
-
03
The Result
- Right details for each location
- Menus readable as page content
- Shorter path from choice to action
- Structure ready to add locations
The Challenge
A group of restaurants under one name has a problem a single room does not. Menus differ between locations, so do prices, and lunch specials change independently of each other. A diner searching for one suburb should never be reading another suburb’s prices, and each kitchen needs to change its own sheet without touching anybody else’s.
- Menus and prices differ between the rooms
- Lunch specials change room by room
- Nobody should read another suburb's prices
- Each kitchen edits only its own sheet
- The fourth room trades under another name
- The group still has to read as one brand
- Every room takes its orders by telephone
Project Preview
A Look at the Finished Work



Our Solution
Each room owns its pages: a dine-in menu, a takeaway sheet, and a lunch special with the terms that apply to it. The brand stays shared, so the site still reads as one group of restaurants, and the fourth room, which trades under a name of its own, is linked from the top rather than swallowed. Every menu is set as text, so a dish can be searched for.
- A dine-in menu for each room
- A takeaway sheet for each room
- A lunch special page with its own terms
- One shared brand across the four rooms
- The fourth room linked, not swallowed
- Menus set as text, so a dish is searchable
- Photo galleries kept per room
- Reviews collected and shown on the site

Outcomes
What Changed After Launch
Each suburb has its own page
A search for one location arrives at that location's menu and prices, instead of a group page that lists all four rooms.
Dishes can be searched for
The menus are set as text rather than as a picture of a menu, which is the difference between being found and being unreadable.
One brand, four kitchens
The rooms share a name and a look while keeping their own prices, so the group reads as one business without flattening it.
Each room updates itself
A lunch special or a price is changed for one location alone, leaving the other three exactly as they were.

Have questions? We've got answers
How can one website keep each restaurant location’s information separate?
Can each location’s menu and lunch specials be updated separately?
Yes. In WordPress, location-specific menu and special pages can be maintained without rewriting a group-wide menu or changing another restaurant’s information. The exact editing workflow and permissions can be tailored to the client’s operating process.
Can diners find individual dishes through search engines?
Menu content built as HTML text can be read, searched and crawled more easily than an image-only menu. That gives individual dishes useful page context, although search visibility still depends on competition, technical health, local relevance and ongoing SEO work.
Can every location connect to calls, delivery and directions?
Yes. Each location can have its own tap-to-call numbers, menu links, online ordering provider and map destination. THE ZEN’s location panels route diners from the restaurant they selected to the matching action instead of relying on one generic contact path.
Will a multi-location restaurant website work well on mobile?
It should. A responsive restaurant site prioritizes location details, readable menus and large call, order and directions targets on smaller screens. THE ZEN’s layout adapts the same location-led journey for phone and desktop visitors.
Can more locations or related restaurant brands be added later?
Yes. A modular location structure allows another restaurant to be added with its own details, menus and actions while retaining shared navigation and visual consistency. Related brands can also be linked clearly without presenting their local content as if it belonged to another location.
