Challenges Faced

What made this build tricky

1

Appetite-First Design

Balancing a cozy, homely cafe feel with a layout clean enough to keep the menu and food photography as the clear focus.

2

Fast Turnaround

Fitting design, development, content and testing into a strict 7-day delivery window without cutting quality.

3

Menu-Heavy Content

Structuring a food menu with categories and imagery so it stayed easy to scan on both desktop and mobile.

4

Cross-Device Consistency

Making sure spacing, imagery and CTAs looked intentional on everything from small phones to wide desktop screens.
