The brief

Where they started.

Priya wanted a website she could put on a flyer without cringing. The reality: nobody finds a cafe via a flyer anymore.

Folk + Filter had no site, just an Instagram with intermittent posts. Google was pulling the wrong opening hours from a deprecated MyBusiness listing. Walk-ins were strong on weekends but soft on weekdays.

The build

What we shipped.

  • Single-screen mobile homepage: menu, hours, directions
  • Speakable schema so Siri reads opening hours correctly
  • Reservations hand-off to Resy for groups of 4+
  • Instagram-feed grid auto-pulled from the cafe handle
  • Local SEO push for 'specialty coffee Marrickville'

The result

What changed.

The site shipped on a Friday. The Saturday queue grew by 30 minutes the next day. By month two, Tuesday and Wednesday covers were up 22%.

Finally a site I'm not embarrassed to put on a flyer. Mobile menu, directions, and the morning queue is longer.
