About ShanGrila

People choose where to eat with their eyes first, and a restaurant website has to make them hungry. ShanGrila is a clean and professional site template for restaurants, bakeries, any food business, and personal chef websites, built on the Bootstrap 4 framework with HTML5 and CSS3. It is responsive and fits great on all devices, so a diner checking the menu from a phone on the way out gets the same inviting experience as one browsing at home. The template includes commented HTML and CSS code for each section, which makes it easy for a developer to adapt the site to the restaurant's own dishes, style, and story. For food businesses, that combination of appetite appeal and easy customisation is exactly what is needed. ShanGrila is sold by Expert Themes, which has sold on ThemeForest since July 2016 and holds a 4.4 buyer rating on ThemeForest across 8,900+ sales on ThemeForest. Your purchase includes lifetime updates, support for half a year, and a 14-day money-back guarantee. For restaurants, bakeries, and chefs, ShanGrila is a tempting choice.

People choose where to eat with their eyes first, and ShanGrila is built for that. It is a clean and professional site template for restaurants, bakeries, any food business and personal chef websites, built on the Bootstrap 4 framework with HTML5 and CSS3. The design gives food photography room to work: dishes, interiors and the chef's story all get a proper stage, and the responsive layout fits great on all devices, so a diner checking the menu from a phone on the way out gets the same inviting experience as one browsing at home.

The template includes commented HTML and CSS code for each section, which makes it easy for a developer to adapt the site to the restaurant's own dishes, style and story. That is a practical advantage for food businesses, because menus change with the seasons and the site has to change with them. Swap the dishes, update the prices, change the specials, and the structure still holds. For restaurants, bakeries and chefs, that combination of appetite appeal and easy customisation is exactly what is needed.

Who should not buy ShanGrila

ShanGrila is not an ordering or delivery platform. It will not take online food orders, manage a delivery fleet, or process payments — a restaurant that needs ordering needs a separate system connected to it. It is also not the right buy for a catering company that needs event quoting with live pricing, or for a food blog that needs a CMS to publish recipes regularly. It is a restaurant website: menu, story, atmosphere, contact.

How to use

Putting your restaurant on ShanGrila

Diners choose with their eyes, so the menu page matters more than the homepage here.

1. Download and unzip. Save the ZIP from your Expert Themes account and extract the files.
2. Open the menu page. Start here and study how dishes, descriptions and prices are laid out.
3. Write your real menu. Replace demo dishes with your own starters, mains and desserts, with prices, plus a specials section.
4. Photograph your own food. Swap demo images for large, well-lit shots of your signature dishes, the dining room and the chef.
5. Fill in the practical details. Add your address, opening hours, phone number and a map link, and say how guests book.
6. Upload to your hosting. Move the files to your host by FTP or the file manager; no database is needed.
7. Check it on the way out. Open the live site on a phone, as a diner would while deciding where to eat, and confirm the menu reads at a glance.

Limitations

What ShanGrila does not serve

ShanGrila makes a restaurant look delicious, but it will not feed anybody. There is no ordering system, so a customer cannot place a delivery order, pay for it, or track a courier through this template, and there is no table booking either; a diner who wants a Friday table still has to call. Catering companies should note the same gap: no event quoting, no live pricing for a function, no way to take a deposit. It is not a food blog, so a chef who publishes recipes every week would be creating a new HTML file for each one instead of posting from a dashboard. The menu is static text, which is fine for a restaurant that changes dishes with the seasons and a chore for one that changes them weekly. The ordering, the booking and the till all live somewhere else.

Frequently asked questions

Can ShanGrila show a full restaurant menu with prices?

Yes. The template is built for restaurants and food businesses, so the menu is a core section. You edit the dishes, descriptions and prices as HTML, which makes seasonal menu changes straightforward. Most restaurants list starters, mains and desserts with prices, plus a specials section.

Is ShanGrila suitable for a bakery or a personal chef?

Yes. It is designed for restaurants, bakeries, any food business and personal chef websites. A bakery would lead with its baked goods and opening hours; a personal chef would lead with their story, sample menus and booking enquiry. The same structure serves both.

Does ShanGrila take online food orders or table bookings?

No. It is a static HTML template with no ordering, delivery or payment system. It presents the restaurant, its menu and its contact details. To take orders or bookings online you would connect an ordering platform or a booking system, or direct guests to call.

How easy is it to update the menu when dishes change?

The HTML and CSS code is commented for each section, so finding the menu block and swapping a dish, a description or a price is a quick edit. Seasonal changes are a normal part of running a restaurant site on this template, and the commented structure is built for it.

What kind of photos work best in ShanGrila?

Large, well-lit food photography. The design gives dishes and interiors room to work, so shoot your actual dishes rather than using stock images where you can. A few strong photos of signature dishes, the dining room and the chef do more for bookings than any amount of text.

Can I add a page for events, like a tasting night or a private hire?

Yes. You can duplicate an existing page and turn it into an events page for tasting nights, private hire or seasonal menus. The template's page structure is plain HTML, so adding a page is a simple copy-and-edit job.
