Pub websites: bistro bookings, live music & functions

Pubs: bistro full, band on, function booked. Everything the pub does, online.

Bistro bookings by phone, the band lineup on a poster and functions arranged by email. We build websites and booking systems for pubs.

Looking for a pub website with bistro and function bookings?

Pubs do a lot: bistro, bands, sport, specials and functions. We build websites that show it all and take the bookings.

Wollopit builds ordering, bookings, menus and websites for pubs around how your venue actually runs. We connect the POS and tools you already use, cut out the commissions you don't need to pay and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back on the floor.

01The problems

04Services

Everything under one roof

Software, websites and systems for pubs.

Whether you're starting fresh or upgrading what you've got, it's one team from the first sketch to the support call.

Custom software for pubs

Built around how your pub actually runs: bistro bookings, live music listings and the admin in between, in one system you own.

Websites for pubs

Fast, hand-built websites that rank for the searches your customers make and turn visits into enquiries, bookings or orders.

Pub system upgrades

Running on spreadsheets, old software or a platform you've outgrown? We move your data across and upgrade in stages so the business never stops.

Apps and portals for pubs

Daily specials and function packages: customer and staff portals that work on any phone without an app store.

Integrations and automation

We connect Square, Lightspeed and Shopify so information moves on its own and nobody retypes it.

Hosting, support and care

Managed hosting, updates, backups and security for your pub, looked after by the people who built it.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your pub: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things pubs ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can it handle accommodation too?

Yes. Pub rooms can be booked alongside the bistro and functions.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your pub. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Will it work with our POS?

Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Square and Lightspeed so orders, menus and stock line up. If yours is holding you back we'll talk options first.

Do we stop paying commission?

On orders and bookings that come through your own website, yes. You pay your card fees and that's it, instead of handing over a cut of every sale.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most pubs we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
