Services · Website development · Food delivery websites

Food delivery websites that win London searches back from the marketplaces.

Codeeo provides food delivery website development in London for restaurant groups, delivery only kitchens, caterers and specialist grocers who want customers to find them directly. We build the website that ranks when someone searches for a dish in Hackney or a lunch delivery near Liverpool Street, the pages that explain exactly where each kitchen delivers, and the routes that turn office catering and event enquiries into conversations with your team. Ordering itself hands over to the platform you already run.

London is not one market. A kitchen in Battersea and a kitchen in Stratford serve different streets, different working patterns and different councils. Your website should reflect that instead of pretending one page can serve the whole city. It should also make clear, kitchen by kitchen, who to call when something goes wrong.

What we build

Website features London food delivery businesses rely on.

A Londoner looking for dinner rarely types your brand name first. They search for a cuisine and an area, open a map, or ask colleagues where to order lunch for twelve. The website has to appear in those moments, prove quickly that you deliver to their postcode, and make ordering or enquiring the obvious next step. Custom food delivery website development in London also has to cope with kitchens that cross borough lines and brands that share one kitchen. Here is what we typically include, ordered by how often London operators ask for it.

Explain your project
  • Delivery area pages done properly

    Pages for the neighbourhoods each kitchen really serves, written with genuine local detail such as the dishes that sell there, collection points and typical delivery windows. We avoid thin copies with only the area name swapped, which Google treats as doorway pages. Each page links to the kitchen that serves it.

    Area searches find a useful page, not a duplicate that harms the whole site.

  • Postcode coverage checker

    A visitor enters a postcode and sees which kitchen delivers there, whether collection is nearer, and which brands are available. Coverage polygons are edited by your operations team when a kitchen expands or trims its radius.

    Customers know in seconds if you can reach them.

  • Office catering and team lunch requests

    A dedicated section for offices in the City, Canary Wharf, King's Cross and the West End, with a request form for headcount, dates, dietary mix, invoicing details and building access notes. Catering prices shown on the site include VAT where it applies, so office buyers are not surprised later. Requests go into your CRM with an owner and a follow up date.

    Corporate orders get a quote from a person, not lost in a general inbox.

  • Multi brand structure

    For kitchens running several virtual brands, we design either one group site with clear brand sections or separate sites sharing one content source. Either way, each brand page names the kitchen address so customers and inspectors are never misled.

    Each brand earns its own search presence without hiding where food is made.

  • Menus with allergens and dietary filters

    Menu pages built from structured data, with the 14 regulated allergens recorded per dish, vegan, halal and gluten free tags where accurate, and wording that tells customers how to check with the kitchen. Menu schema helps search engines read dishes and prices.

    Menu information stays accurate across the website and the ordering platform.

  • Ordering hand off

    Order buttons that send customers to your ordering system with the right kitchen and menu already selected. Click tracking shows which pages and areas produce orders, so marketing spend in London goes where it works.

    Clear attribution from page view to order.

  • Hygiene rating display

    Each kitchen page shows its food hygiene rating using the Food Standards Agency's official display, linked to the listing held by the borough council that inspected it. When a kitchen is reinspected, the rating updates without anyone editing the page.

    Customers see a current, verifiable rating for the exact premises.

  • Press, events and pop ups

    A simple way to publish reviews, market stalls, supper clubs and seasonal menus. London food media and social posts send bursts of traffic, and a well built events page turns that attention into sign ups and orders. Each event can carry its own date, location and booking link, and expires automatically when it ends.

    Publicity leads somewhere useful on your own site.

  • Consent and email sign up

    A cookie banner that meets PECR, with tracking held until a visitor agrees, and email sign up forms that store proof of consent for UK GDPR. Soft opt in for existing customers is configured only where it genuinely applies.

    A marketing list you can use without worrying about the ICO.

  • Speed and accessibility

    Lightweight pages for commuters on patchy Underground and rail connections, images sized for phones, and accessible design to WCAG 2.2 so menus work with screen readers and large text. We check Core Web Vitals on real mobile devices before launch.

    Pages load fast for hungry people on slow connections.

Who this is for

Four kinds of London food business we build websites for.

Good food delivery website design in London starts with how the business trades: which boroughs, which hours, which customers and which channels. The four situations below need different structures, and getting that choice right at the start saves rework later. If yours is a mix, discovery by video call is where we sort out which parts matter first.

01

A restaurant group across several boroughs

You have sites in places like Islington, Clapham and Shoreditch, each with its own delivery radius and local following. Each restaurant needs a strong page of its own, connected to its Google Business Profile, while the group site carries brand story, gift cards, careers and press. We build templates so a new opening gets a complete page quickly.

Every location page should link to and from its own Business Profile.

02

A delivery only kitchen with several brands

Your kitchens sit in industrial units or shared sites, and customers mostly meet you through delivery apps. A website gives each brand a home that marketplace algorithms cannot take away, and a place to collect email consent for direct offers. We keep the kitchen address and rating visible, which builds trust rather than losing it. We also plan how each brand's page connects to its marketplace listings, so loyal customers learn they can order direct next time.

03

An office caterer

Your customers are office managers and PAs who order for teams and meetings. They want sample menus, dietary options, minimum notice, invoicing and a quick quote. The website is your sales tool here, so we focus on clear packages, a catering request form and content that ranks for searches about office lunch delivery in specific London districts. Downloadable menus and a clear statement of the areas you cover save your sales team many repeat emails each week.

Office buyers often compare three caterers, so speed of reply matters.

04

A specialist grocer or deli

Delis, bakeries and specialist grocers with a loyal local following often sell through a patchwork of apps. A website that tells the story of your products, explains delivery and collection areas clearly and links to your shop system brings searchers to you directly. Product pages carry the provenance, seasonality and serving ideas that marketplace listings have no room for, which is exactly the content London food searches reward.

How a London food delivery website gets built.

  1. 01Discovery by video callWe map your kitchens, brands, delivery zones, ordering platform and the enquiries that matter, and review which current pages and profiles bring traffic today.
  2. 02Search and area researchWe study what Londoners search for near each kitchen and decide which area pages deserve to exist, based on real demand and real local content.
  3. 03Design for phones firstTemplates for kitchen, menu, area, catering and brand pages, designed for one handed use on a phone and tested for accessibility.
  4. 04Build and connectThe content system, postcode checker, ordering hand off, CRM forms, hygiene rating display, consent and analytics are built and tested together.
  5. 05Content and trainingMenus, allergens, photos and area copy are loaded, and your team learns to update kitchens, menus and events without calling a developer.
  6. 06Launch and watchRedirects go live, sitemaps are submitted, Business Profiles get new links, and we track rankings and order clicks after launch.

Technology

What we build this with.

We pick tools your staff can live with. WordPress suits teams who already know it; a headless setup with Next.js suits groups with many brands sharing one content source. Either way, hosting, backups and monitoring are set up in your own accounts. Search Console and analytics are connected before launch so you have a baseline.

Questions London food businesses ask before a new website.

It depends on kitchens, brands and how many old pages need moving.

A single brand with one or two kitchens and a clean old site is a short project. A group with several boroughs, multiple virtual brands, catering and years of old URLs takes longer, mostly because of content and redirects rather than code. We agree the timeline after discovery, once we can see the menus, the ordering integration and the migration list, and we write it into the plan so everyone works to the same dates.
