The five places restaurants sites fail WCAG.

  1. — 01

    Menus rendered as PDF or image

    Screen readers can't read them. The single most-cited failure in 2025 demand letters against restaurants — and a Google SEO drag, since search engines can't index the items.

  2. — 02

    Online ordering forms with no labels

    Cart, checkout, customization, and modifier groups without programmatic labels. The same flow that gets your customers also gets you sued.

  3. — 03

    Reservation widgets in a keyboard trap

    Older OpenTable / Resy iframes (and almost every custom reservation form) fail focus management. Keyboard users get stuck. Trivial to fix; trivial to litigate.

  4. — 04

    Hero text over a photo background

    "Welcome to Mama's" in cream over a brick-wall photo — contrast 1.8:1, every time. Standard pattern, standard WCAG fail, easy demand letter.

  5. — 05

    Phone, hours, address inaccessible on mobile

    The three pieces of info every customer actually needs — buried in modals, rendered as images, or formatted so they can't be tapped to call.

34.65% of all ADA web lawsuits hit restaurants in 2025.

That's 1,368 cases. Average settlement runs $25,000–$50,000; attorneys' fees on top. 77%of defendants are small businesses earning under $25M. Remediation costs a small fraction of either number — and the demand letter doesn't care how good your service is.

Audit. Quote. Ship. No agency runaround.

  1. — 01

    Audit (free)

    Run our automated audit above, or let us hand-write one. We return a written report with every WCAG criterion you fail, every Core Web Vital miss, and what each one would cost to fix.

  2. — 02

    Fixed-scope quote

    Tied to a defined deliverable list. Not hourly. We tell you the price before any work begins; if it changes, you sign off first.

  3. — 03

    1–2 week build, daily check-ins

    You see what we're building each day, not in a Friday update. We ship on the date in the quote.

The questions every restaurant owner asks first.

Will you replace my OpenTable or Resy?

No. We embed them so they pass keyboard and screen-reader tests. If your existing widget is fundamentally broken (some older OpenTable iframes still are), we'll flag it and offer alternatives — but we don't force a migration.

What about my POS or online ordering platform (Toast, Square, ChowNow)?

We work with whatever you're on. Most modern platforms have accessible embed options; we wire them in correctly. If you're on something fundamentally broken, we'll show you what to switch to and the cost difference.

I'm a franchisee — does the chain control my site?

Often partially. Mixed setups are common: chain controls the menu and brand, franchisee owns the location page or booking flow. We audit what you actually own and remediate that. The lawsuit can still name the franchisee, so it's still your problem to fix.

Do menu PDFs really need to be replaced?

Yes. PDF menus are the single most-cited failure in restaurant ADA lawsuits. We rebuild as semantic HTML — accessible, indexable for SEO, editable without a designer.
