Marula Monkey is an African-inspired restaurant in Lancaster, known for its vibrant dishes, cocktails, and lively dining experience. Despite its unique brand and strong local following, its online presence didn’t reflect the same energy.
They came to Lune Studio needing a professional website that not only looked the part but also worked hard behind the scenes. The goals were clear: create a site that captured their bold brand identity, was search-friendly to improve visibility on Google, and made it simple for customers to view the menu and book a table.
We rebuilt the website from the ground up with both brand and performance in mind. Structured content, clean code, and optimised metadata ensured the new site could finally be crawled and indexed by Google. Conversion-focused design decisions placed the menu and booking call-to-actions front and centre, while bold typography, vibrant colours, and high-quality photography brought the Marula Monkey experience to life online.
The finished deliverables included a fully custom Webflow build, integrated “Book a Table” functionality, and a mobile-first design to suit the way restaurant customers browse. The team were also given the tools to update menus and content themselves, avoiding the pitfalls of their old DIY setup.
The result is a modern, search-ready website that reflects Marula Monkey’s lively brand, helps them get discovered online, and makes booking a table effortless for customers.
