Restaurants & cafés

Kitchen hours on the site should match the listing guests already checked

Guests search “open now,” then tap your site for the menu. If Monday lunch changed on Google and the footer still says 12–3, they bounce. HourSync keeps the restaurant site on the same week as Google Business Profile—including late close and holiday service.

Setup checklist

Connect, customize, embed

How it works

Connect Google Business Profile, tailor the widget, embed once, and let sync handle the rest.

  1. 1

    Connect the dining location

    Use the GBP listing guests see on Maps—not a brand HQ listing with different hours.

  2. 2

    Show today, not only the week

    Live open/closed (and closing soon) matters more for dinner service than a static seven-row table.

  3. 3

    Embed on contact, footer, or booking pages

    Same snippet on Squarespace, WordPress, Wix, Shopify, or a custom site.

  4. 4

    Special service days

    Update Google for Christmas week. Pro can catch drift and sync; Lite still lets you pull from the dashboard.

Best for

  • Independent restaurants, cafés, bakeries, and bars with a GBP page
  • Seasonal or holiday hours that change faster than the website footer
  • Overnight or split shifts (lunch + dinner) that a simple “9–5” block cannot express

Hospitality notes

  • Overnight hours (e.g. Saturday 21:00–01:00) are supported in the schedule model.
  • One widget per paid site—multi-venue groups need a widget per dining room you embed.
  • Free checker: prove a mismatch before you subscribe.

FAQ

We already put hours on Google. Why put them on the website too?

Guests still open the site for menus, rooms, or tickets. If that page disagrees with Maps, they stop trusting both. The widget is the same hours, not a second opinion.

Can we show different hours for the café and the dining room?

Each HourSync widget maps to one Google location. Two concepts on Maps means two widgets (and today, two subscriptions or a future multi-widget plan).

What about kitchen closed / bar still open?

Google has one regular-hours schedule per listing. If you need two clocks, you need two listings or a note in the widget name—HourSync will not invent a second schedule.

Does this replace OpenTable or a booking widget?

No. It only does hours and status. Keep your booking tool; stop maintaining a third hours table next to it.

Which site builders do restaurants use with HourSync?

Squarespace, Wix, WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, and hosted hospitality builders that allow a script embed.

Can you install it for us?

Yes—use setup help / Concierge. We connect GBP, paste the snippet, and allowlist the domain.
