Bloom & Brew

The brief

Bloom & Brew is a fictional café. We made it as a KP Labs demo to show what we can build for small hospitality businesses. A café website has four jobs: show a menu people can read, make the opening hours obvious, say how to find the place, and give people a way to book a table.

What we built

A one-page site, plus a custom page-not-found screen.

• A menu you can read on a phone.
• Opening hours that are easy to find.
• A small illustrated map of the area, in place of an embedded map.
• A booking form that only offers times the café takes bookings, and won’t accept a past date or a Monday, when the café is closed. Each problem is shown next to its field, and the form tells screen readers how many there are.

The booking form is a demo. It makes no network request and saves nothing, so no booking is made. It shows on screen what was entered, then stops.

What a real café would get

A plain form can’t take real bookings. For a real café we would connect a booking service the café already uses, or send form enquiries to the café by email with spam protection and a short privacy note. Real availability, cancellations and reminders need a booking service.

Light and private

The site has no analytics and loads nothing from other companies’ servers. Its font and photos are hosted with the site. It is marked as a demo throughout and hidden from search engines, so nobody mistakes it for a real business.
