This way, you can show-off your food/drink menus, online table booking page, blog page and much more. Thanks to built-in administration panel which provides ready options to manage everything.
Why WP-Food WordPress Theme ?
Most of the restaurant templates are developed with general concept and dependent on extra plugins for core featuers. So user need to install 3rd party tools to create menu, photo-galleries and other stuff. But this is first WordPress theme which offers all core features on back0end side. So you don’t have to trust 3rd party plugins for content management.
WP-Food is a multi-purpose food blogging and restaurant theme. So food and recipe bloggers can also use it to start an adsense blog. Or you can just develop a restaurant site with blog section. The theme includes range of custom page templates, widgets and styling options. So administrator can always think of starting a unique site that looks stylish and clear.
The flexible design makes it possible to display anything on homepage area. Not only that, you can also display custom logo, social links, menu links and other stuff on header area. Therefore, visitors can easily link to main page templates and social profile links directly from header. The theme has not special rule for styling and layouts. So you are free to pick best color skins and typography that looks right according to your branding.

Page Templates : Solostream
Food-Menu : You may have seen many restaurant sites with built-in food menu page. But what you are going to get in WP Food theme is hardly found anywhere. The menu template offered in this theme provides one page layout. So you can display Unique menu cards system using like Appetizers, Desserts, Soups etc. The menu management section let’s you add Item name, Thumbnail, Ingredients and Price details.
Apart from that, you are going to find an floating bar on the left side of the screen with links to connect all menu cards. With single page, it becomes hard to scroll to bottom as it takes time. For e.g. you want to browse Desserts which is located at the bottom on menu. Then you don’t have to browse manually all the way, just click “Desserts” button on the link bar on from the left panel. And you will be taken to that section by auto-scrolling feature.
This way, diners can easily browse different menu sections at great speed. The menu is optimized for both administrator as well as visitors.
Reservation Page : WP-Food WordPress theme has online reservation system integrated into reservation page. This page gives you ready form with fields to accept booking details. So site visitors can send you inquiry for advanced table booking. The form asks for Date, Time, Total persons, Email, Phone and all key details. So you can follow back clients request for final confirmation.
Final Words :
Before we go towards end of this review, you must know that WP-Food also has contact page with form. So user can use it to contact you or they can find address, phone and other details from there. Gallery template is also integrated to display all best photos of your food, restaurant, events and other stuff. Blog page is also there to share good recipes or news for your business.
I like food menu for dynamic floating system and homepage slider for parallax featured style. Everything looks impressive from fonts style to background which can surely impress visitors. The theme works on mobiles and all devices because it is made of responsive layout. So I would just ask all people to buy this theme who wants online portal for restaurant or a food blog.
