websites for cafes · run for you, monthly

We build the site. We run the site. You pour the coffee.

Most cafes don't need a better Instagram. They need a website. We make those, and we keep them running. Singapore, KL, Bandung, Jakarta. Flat monthly fee. No retainer games. No "CMS training." Send us a photo, we ship a change.

A small studio, built around the work.

what we believe

A cafe site is a front door, not a brochure.

We build like the room you walk into matters. Type, pacing, photo crop — every choice carries the cafe's voice. No templates, no "CMS training," no decks pretending the work is harder than it is.

05 · faq

Questions every cafe has asked.

What happens to my data, menu, photos, customer info?
Your data stays with you. We build from what you send us: photos, menu, copy. We don't collect customer data, don't store anything on third-party platforms, and have no access to your POS or booking system. The site is a static file on Cloudflare's CDN. No database, nothing to breach. If PDPA compliance comes up with management, we'll send a one-page summary.
Can I see it before I pay anything?
We build a full preview first. Your cafe, your brand, real content, before you commit. You get a live URL to share with your team. If you don't love it, we don't charge. The portfolio above is exactly what the preview looks like.
I already have a Squarespace, why pay you?
Most Squarespace sites look like every other Squarespace site. Regulars notice. Mitra sites look like the cafe. Load faster, rank higher on local SEO, and you never log in. If yours is working, stay. We're expensive.
Why a monthly fee instead of a one-time build?
Cafes change. Menus, hours, seasonal lots, new staff. A one-time build rots in six months. The fee covers running the site, not just building it. Same reason you pay your accountant monthly.
What happens if I want to leave?
We hand over the full HTML, DNS, and domain. You own everything from day one. The only thing you lose is us. No lock-in, no proprietary CMS, no exit fee.
How much will this disrupt our daily operations?
Almost nothing. Intro call is 20 minutes. We collect assets (photos, menu, brand notes) over WhatsApp at your pace. No forms, no briefs, no email chains. Most owners spend under 2 hours total before launch. After that, send a message when something changes. We handle the rest in 48 hours.
I need to check with my business partner / management first.
Fair. We'll send a one-page summary: cost, scope, ownership, cancel terms. Written for someone who hasn't seen the site. Most partners approve after the preview. Send us the cafe name and we'll prepare one.
Do you work with cafes outside Singapore / KL / Indonesia?
Not yet. The studio sits between Singapore and Bandung, so regional time zones let us turn edits around in a workday. Bangkok, Saigon, Manila: get in touch. We're watching.
Do you do restaurants, bars, or bakeries?
Bakeries or natural-wine bars sometimes, only through cafe referrals. Restaurants no. Different rhythm, different economics.
<100mstime to first byte
