Liverpool as a market

Liverpool eats from the waterfront up the hill

Liverpool runs from the river uphill. The Pier Head and the Royal Albert Dock carry the visitors and the ferry; Castle Street's banking halls have become bars and dining rooms; Bold Street is the city's independent restaurant row, climbing from Central station to the Bombed Out Church; Hope Street joins the two cathedrals through the Georgian Quarter and the Philharmonic; the Baltic Triangle has turned its warehouses into breweries, street food and the night; and out at Lark Lane and Allerton Road the villages hold the Sunday trade. Lime Street brings the trains, and the football, the Grand National and three universities set the calendar.

What a Liverpool restaurant, café, bar or pub website has to do

  1. Ticket 01

    Say which street and which hill

    A search for dinner in Liverpool could mean the waterfront, Bold Street or the Baltic, and they are different walks from Lime Street.

  2. Ticket 02

    Match day, planned

    The football brings a crowd that eats early and drinks late, twice a fortnight.

  3. Ticket 03

    The visitor and the local, both served

    The waterfront trade arrives once and searches on a phone; the Bold Street trade comes back weekly.

  4. Ticket 04

    Rank for Liverpool, by street

    Searches name Bold Street, Castle Street, the Baltic Triangle or the Albert Dock.

What we do, how we do it, what you get

Built by someone who has run a match-day Saturday, not only a screen

EDC's founder spent twenty years running hospitality operations before founding the consultancy in June 2024. A Liverpool site is built the way a good room is run on a match day: the kitchen, the sittings and the margin first, then the design that sells them to the people coming up from Lime Street.

The far bankOn the screen

  • The website

    Mobile first, fast on the train, a menu Google can read, the table bookable in two taps.

  • Local search

    The Google Business Profile corrected to the street, listings matched to it, reviews answered in your voice.

  • Brand

    A logo, palette, type, menus and signage files that hold up on the waterfront, on Bold Street and on a phone.

  • Email and social

    A customer email system and a social plan that say what is on this week, kept current by someone who knows the kitchen.

The near bankOn the floor

  • Menu and margin

    The menu costed line by line and priced against your margin before it is designed, match-day and midweek versions both.

  • Service flow

    Sittings, turn times, the walk-in rules and the match-day plan decided before the booking system is switched on.

  • Allergens and specs

    An allergen matrix and recipe spec sheets the kitchen works from and the website can quote.

  • Team and standards

    Opening checklists and service standards written for the people who will run the room when the final whistle goes.

What you get

  • A written scopemapped to a figure on the pricing page before anything is built
  • A site you ownon your own domain, with the files and the logins
  • A menu Google can readnot a PDF: dishes, prices and allergens as text
  • A profile that matchesthe Google Business Profile corrected to the site, street by street
  • A match-day pagethe hours, the rules and the booking, live before the day
  • One person to callAli, the founder, from the first call to launch and after

Questions people ask

Web design in Liverpool: the questions people ask

How much does web design cost in Liverpool?

The same as anywhere EDC works. Website – Starter is £1,650, Website – Pro £2,950, Website – Standard £5,800 and Website – Premium £6,500, one-off figures in pounds. The pricing page lists what each includes. Local SEO is separate, from £850 per month.

Do you design websites for businesses in Liverpool other than restaurants?

EDC builds for the food and drink trade: restaurants, cafés, bars, pubs, bakeries and delis. That focus is the point; a site for a Baltic Triangle bar is built by someone who has run one.

Who designs restaurant websites in Liverpool?

Epicurean Digital Consultants, based in Wimbledon in London and working in Liverpool by train and by video call, founded in June 2024 by Ali Solak after twenty years running hospitality operations. You deal with Ali directly, not an account manager.

Do you cover Lark Lane, Allerton Road and the Wirral as well as the centre?

Yes. The villages and the suburbs are much of the city's trade, and the page is built around the lane, the road or the park rather than the city name.

Do you need to visit the restaurant?

Usually once, and Liverpool is a direct train from London. The first thirty-minute call is by phone or video and costs nothing.

How long does a restaurant website take?

It depends on the package and on how fast menus, photography and copy come back from you. The written scope after the first call gives a date.

Where this page's design comes from

Velvet Hour, one of the concept sites in the Web Portfolios

This page shares its night idiom with that demo: a dark page whose colour comes from a few warm lights on a deep surface, here a city seen from its river at dusk, rather than borrowing its look. It is a concept site with a fictional brand, built to show what a site can feel like; it is not a client and no business on it is real.
