Local restaurants...I beg you...maintain an actual Web Site...that isn't Facebook or Instagram...I am pleading with you...just a simple site, on the web...for me, your old pal Sadsquatch...

@Sadsquatch I just bumped into another one where in an article they complained about how difficult it had been to find customers. But when searching for them online, no website! I was wondering if maybe they had shut down already until I eventually went out of my way and found them active on Facebook.

Where of course it was really difficult to figure out what their actual menu was. I failed and gave up.

Minimum that every #restaurant should have on an actual *website*, and easy to find (not hidden in small links behind marketing blurbs):

* Opening times
* Address
* Phone
* What their concept and food is about
* Pics showing actual interior, maybe exterior. Not just zoomed in pics of a plate. This tells me what vibe and environment to expect
* After all that, a menu is great

Many, if not most restaurants, even with a website, fail on these very basic requirements!

@Setok @Sadsquatch And next to the opening times some statement such as "valid as of October 2018" or "next exceptions: Christmas 2025" that helps readers judge if the opening times are likely to be accurate.

@jks @Sadsquatch That's advanced level! if we can even reach the point where opening times are prominently shown, that would already be a level-up in many cases :D
