Aw yeah! Presenting 2020’s best WordPress restaurant themes. Get ready!
There were so, so many restaurant themes to sort through this time around, but we somehow managed to narrow it down. There’s a lot of variation in design here, but not so much variation in terms of features. All themes include a menu card of some sort, and most include an events calendar. Many offer a reservations system. They’re not exactly must-have features, but they could come in handy.
All of the themes on this list are intended for general restaurant and bistro use. If you’re looking for coffee shop themes, bakery themes, or winery themes, you may find one of the following articles more useful:
