Websites for cafes
Free website for cafes and coffee shops.
Benchlight lets you make and publish a website for your cafe free, in a few minutes. People heading out for coffee check your hours, your menu, where you are and whether there is seating or Wi-Fi.
One free website per account at a benchlight.page address. No card needed.
What a cafe website needs.
Opening hours, kept current
Post your hours by day, and update them for holidays or early closings.
A menu with prices
Type your menu out with prices instead of posting a photo of the board.
Address and parking
Give your street address, nearby parking and any landmark that helps people find the door.
Diet and allergy options
Note dairy-free milks and any vegan or gluten-free items, so people know what they can order.
Seating, Wi-Fi and outlets
Say whether you have seating, Wi-Fi or outlets, since many people come to work or meet.
Events and specials
Mention seasonal drinks, live music or open mic nights, and take past events off the page.

Yes, with the full website, which adds more pages, your own photos and logo and up to two small updates a month, for $19 a month or $199 a year.
What does the free website include?
It is a page with your business name, a headline, a few lines about you, a services list you can edit, and phone and email links. It is published free at a yourname.benchlight.page address, with a small “Made with Benchlight” credit.
