What a restaurant website costs in 2026
A restaurant website costs $0 if you only need your menu, hours and map on a free builder, $29 a month on Wix Core to take payments, and $249 to $499 a month on Owner.com for an ordering site (as of November 2026). Heya, the builder behind this guide, covers the menu and hours site for $0, with a Google Maps embed.
Heya is ours, so read its row with that in mind. Every other number comes from the sources listed under How we checked, as of November 10, 2026.
Monthly costs at a glance
Start with what you want the site to do. A page with your menu and opening hours is a different setup from a site that takes payments, and an ordering plan can have a monthly charge plus a fee on each order.
Keep those charges separate when you're comparing options.
| Option | Monthly cost | Per-order fee | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Business Profile | Free | Not stated | Showing hours, photos and a map |
| Heya Free | $0 | Link a button to your checkout or store page | A menu and hours site with a Google Maps embed |
| Square Online Free | $0 | 3.3% + 30 cents per online card sale | Taking online card payments |
| Wix Core | $29 a month billed yearly | Not stated | Taking online payments on Wix |
| Owner.com Flexible | $249 a month | 5% per online order | An ordering site with a lower monthly charge |
| Owner.com Flat Rate | $499 a month | No per-order fee | An ordering site without a per-order fee |
| GloriaFood | Free | No commission | Online ordering with paid add-ons available |

Not stated means the company's own pages don't list it.
A Google Business Profile isn't your own website. It gives you a place to show hours, photos and a map, and a Yelp business page offers those details for free too.
Want customers to order on the site? That's where the payment and ordering charges come into the comparison.
What online ordering adds
Owner.com's Flexible plan costs $249 a month plus 5% per online order. Its Flat Rate plan costs $499 a month with no per-order fee. The choice here is between the lower monthly charge with an order fee and the higher monthly charge without one.
GloriaFood has no commission and no monthly fee, with paid add-ons such as online payments at $29 a month. But there's a date to put in your planning notes: Oracle says GloriaFood reaches end of life on April 30, 2027.
Don't skip that date.
Square Online's Free plan is $0, with a charge of 3.3% + 30 cents per online card sale. Square also offers Plus at $49 a month and Premium at $149 a month. The Free plan's monthly price and its card-sale fee are separate parts of the budget.
For Wix, Core is the cheapest plan that accepts online payments. It's $29 a month billed yearly, so keep the yearly billing requirement attached to that price when you compare it with another plan's monthly charge.
What it costs to hire a builder
If you want someone else to build the site, Fiverr's price guides put landing page development at $80 to $250 and a small business website at $400 to $1,200.
Those are development prices, not the monthly prices in the table. Keep a line for the build in your budget and a separate line for the platform you choose, with any online order or card-sale fees alongside it.
What are you asking the builder to make? Use the landing page range when you're looking at a landing page, and the small business website range when that's the job you're discussing. Neither range is a restaurant-specific quote.
A menu and hours site with Heya
Heya is the no-code builder publishing this guide. You sign in with Google to publish, and Heya Free costs $0 with no credit card and no time limit.
That plan includes 3 sites, up to 5 pages per site and all 68 templates, along with a free yourname.heya.bio address with HTTPS and a small Made with Heya badge. You can add your menu and hours and use the Google Maps embed.
No built-in checkout, though.
Heya doesn't have a built-in store or form builder either. For orders, you link a button to your checkout or store page; for a form, you link to a Google Form or a Tally form, and for bookings you can use the Calendly embed.
Heya Pro Lite is $3 a month. It includes 3 sites with up to 20 pages per site, removes the badge and stops marking links nofollow. If the badge is the part you want to change, that's the plan where it's removed.
Domains and site settings
Heya Pro Standard is $6 a month and includes 5 sites and 1 custom domain per account with HTTPS. Heya doesn't sell domains, so you bring yours from a registrar; custom domain support starts on Pro Standard.
Heya Pro Plus is $15 a month. It includes 25 sites, up to 10 custom domains and the option to download your site as a ZIP of HTML files.
For page setup, Heya allows 40 sections per page and 60 blocks per section, with 10 block types and images up to 20 MB. Its SEO settings include a title of up to 120 characters, a description of up to 300 characters, a favicon and a share image.
