How Much Does a Restaurant Website Cost in Singapore? (2026)
Short answer: a restaurant website in Singapore costs anywhere from S$20 a month on a DIY builder to S$8,000 or more from an agency. Most small restaurants and cafés can get a professional site for S$500–S$3,000, plus about S$15–S$50 a year for the domain.

Ranges based on published 2026 Singapore pricing guides and current builder plans. Individual quotes vary.
What actually drives the price
- Number of pages. A one-page site with menu, hours and a booking button is far quicker to build than eight pages with events and catering.
- Custom design vs. template. A template with your logo is cheaper. A design built around your brand and how you take bookings usually costs more, though some specialists include it at no extra charge.
- Bookings and ordering. Linking Chope, SevenRooms or GrabFood is simple. A custom ordering system with payments is a much bigger project.
- Languages. An English and Chinese site roughly doubles the content work.
- Copy and photos. If the designer writes your menu descriptions or arranges a photoshoot, expect to pay for that time.
Hidden costs to ask about
- Monthly platform fees that never stop, even if you never change anything.
- Annual “maintenance” contracts bundled into agency quotes.
- Domain renewal mark-ups. Make sure the domain is registered in your name.
- Change requests charged by the hour after launch. Ask what a menu update costs.
- Who owns the site. Some providers keep the files if you leave.
Can I use a government grant?
Singapore's Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) can co-fund pre-approved digital solutions for eligible SMEs, and the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG) supports larger transformation projects. Both have strict eligibility rules and only cover approved vendors and solutions, so check the latest terms on the GoBusiness website before you plan around them.
Is a cheap website a false economy?
Not if it does the basics properly. A restaurant website mostly needs to load fast on a phone, show the menu as real text, make booking or ordering obvious, and give accurate hours and directions. A focused S$1,000 site that does those things well will usually beat an S$8,000 site that hides the menu in a PDF. The restaurant website checklist covers what to look for.
Questions to ask before you hire anyone
- What's the total price, and what's not included?
- What will I pay every year after launch?
- Will the domain and website be in my name?
- Can I update the menu myself?
- Can I see a concept before I commit?
My prices, for reference
I design websites only for restaurants and cafés, at fixed prices: S$490 for one page, S$890 for up to five pages, and S$1,490 with online ordering and private-dining enquiries. A design made only for you costs the same, there are no compulsory monthly fees, and you see a free homepage concept before you decide. See full pricing.
