When people search "restaurant near me" in Dar es Salaam, Arusha or Zanzibar, they decide in seconds based on photos, menus and reviews. Here is what a restaurant or cafe website in Tanzania needs.

The essentials

• Menu with prices – as a web page, not only a PDF, so Google can read it and it loads quickly on phones.
• Location and map with directions and parking information.
• Opening hours, including holidays.
• Click-to-call and WhatsApp buttons for reservations and orders.
• Great food photos, compressed so the site stays fast.

Turn visitors into customers

• Reservations through a simple form or WhatsApp.
• Delivery or pickup ordering, with mobile money payment – see accepting mobile money online.
• Events and specials pages for live music, buffets and holidays.
• Private dining and catering enquiry pages – often the most profitable leads.

Get found locally

Set up and maintain your Google Business Profile with photos, menu and hours, and ask guests for reviews. Use the same name, address and phone number on your website, Google and social media.
