How much a café website costs in Portland
A café website in Portland costs from $349 for a one-page site and $749 to $1,290 for a starter site of four to six pages. Hosting and support are optional at $49 to $99 a month, with no contract.

What's included
Accurate hours and whether people can work there
The single most important thing on a café website, built properly rather than as an afterthought.
Tap-to-call on mobile
Most Portland customers find you on a phone. Calling you should never take more than one tap.
Your service area, stated
Beaverton, Hillsboro, Lake Oswego, Gresham and the wider metro — named, so nobody has to guess.
Google Business Profile linked
Set up or connected properly, which for a Portland local business usually matters more than the site itself.
Fast on mobile data
Photos resized and optimised, so the page loads in about a second on a phone.
Yours to keep
Domain registered in your name, content yours, and no contract on the care plan.
What you pay for a café website in Portland
Pricing is fixed before work starts, so a Portland café knows the full cost up front.
| Option | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| One-page site | $349 | Getting found and contacted quickly |
| Starter site (4–6 pages) | $749–$1,290 | Cafés with several services to explain |
| Care plan (optional) | $49–$99 / month | Hosting, updates and small changes |
For café owners, the money is best spent on accurate hours and whether people can work there. Everything else is secondary.
What Portland cafés need on a website
Above everything else, accurate hours and whether people can work there.
- 1Opening hours — this is what they check first.
- 2Wifi and seating.
- 3The menu.
- 4Parking.
The hesitation that stops most enquiries in this trade is not knowing whether it is a good place to sit and work. A site that answers it plainly, before anyone has to ask, converts noticeably better than one that does not.
Competing as a café in Portland
This market is winnable. Many competing businesses have weak or neglected online presence, so getting the basics right — accurate listings, real photos, consistent reviews — often puts you ahead of established names.
Long wet seasons drive demand for moss removal, gutters and exterior maintenance, and customers here weigh sustainability claims seriously. For café owners specifically, that shapes both when enquiries arrive and what customers expect to see before they contact you.
Covering the Portland area
Customers here often search by neighbourhood rather than by city. If you cover Beaverton, Hillsboro, Lake Oswego, Gresham or the wider Portland metro, say so explicitly rather than leaving people to guess.
- Name the specific areas you serve, such as Beaverton, Hillsboro, Lake Oswego.
- State any travel charge for the edges of your area, before someone enquires.
- Do not create a separate near-identical page for every suburb — it performs worse than one honest area list.
- Make sure your Google Business Profile service area matches what the site says.
What it costs and how long it takes

- Your services and prices, written however you normally describe them.
- Ten to twenty photos — phone photos in good light are fine.
- Your opening hours and contact details.
- Your logo, if you have one.
- About two hours of your time in total.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a café website cost in Portland?
From $349 for a one-page site and $749 to $1,290 for a starter site of four to six pages. Hosting and support are optional at $49 to $99 a month, rolling monthly with no contract.
Do you work with café owners outside Portland?
Yes — we work remotely with businesses across the Oregon metro area including Beaverton, Hillsboro, Lake Oswego, and internationally. Everything is done over email, phone and a preview link.
How long will it take?
About a week for a one-page site and one to two weeks for a starter site, from the point you send photos, services and hours. The main thing that slows projects down is waiting on photos.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The domain is registered in your name, the content is yours, and you can move it elsewhere at any time. We do not hold sites hostage on a support plan.
Will this get me to the top of Google in Portland?
Nobody can promise that, and be careful of anyone who does. For local searches, your Google Business Profile and your reviews matter more than the website. We set the profile up properly as part of the build.
