Free Restaurant Booking System Template (HTML, CSS & JavaScript)

Template details

Looking for a real-world template to demo restaurant discovery, ordering, and checkout—without user accounts or framework overhead? This Restaurant Booking System is a clean, fast, and fully responsive template built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (jQuery).

It ships with a JSON data source, a guest checkout flow, and a lightweight Admin area, allowing you to simulate orders, tweak menus, and adjust tax/delivery settings.

⚠️ Demo only: Payment and orders are simulated. Data is stored locally in the browser (no backend).

What’s Inside the ZIP

• Customer-facing pages
  • index.html — search & filter restaurants (by cuisine/city) with cards
  • restaurant.html — details page with badges, rating, and menu + booking form

• checkout.html — guest checkout (contact, address, simulated payment)
• confirm.html — order confirmation with totals and booking summary
• about.html, contact.html, faq.html, terms.html, privacy.html, 404.html

• Admin (demo)

• admin/login.html — login (any email) + password admin123
• admin/dashboard.html — stats (total, pending, delivered) + recent orders
• admin/orders.html — list orders; update status (Pending → Delivered, etc.)
• admin/menu.html — edit items per restaurant (saved to localStorage)
• admin/settings.html — set delivery fee and tax rate (used at checkout)

• Assets & Data
  • assets/style.css — responsive styles + dark/light mode variables
  • assets/script.js — routing, cart, booking, admin logic, and theme toggle
  • data/restaurants.json — 24 sample restaurants with menus, prices, ratings

Key Features (Built Around Your Template)

1) Guest Checkout — No Accounts

Every user is treated as a guest: add dishes, enter email/address, and complete a simulated payment. No login or profile is required.

2) JSON-Driven Catalog & Menus

The entire catalog (24 restaurants) loads from data/restaurants.json. You can swap in your own restaurant/menu data without touching the JS.

3) Mobile-First + Dark/Light Mode

The UI is responsive out of the box, featuring a thumb-friendly layout and a dark/light mode toggle that is saved per user in localStorage.

4) Realistic Admin Demo (Local Only)

• Dashboard: Order counts and quick overview
• Orders: Update statuses (Pending, Preparing, Out for delivery, Delivered)
• Menu: Add/edit/remove items per restaurant (persisted locally)
• Settings: Delivery fee and tax (%) applied to checkout totals

5) Local-Only Data Storage

Carts, orders, settings, and menu overrides are stored in localStorage. Nothing leaves the browser—great for demos, tutorials, and student projects.

How It Works (Quick Tour)

1. Discover & Filter On index.htmlUsers search by name/cuisine and filter by city. Cards show cuisine, city, rating, and price bracket.
2. Restaurant Page restaurant.html displays details, a menu list with “add” buttons, and a booking form (date/time/party size) that saves to the cart.
3. Guest Checkout On checkout.html Users enter name, email, phone, address, and (simulated) card fields. Totals reflect delivery fee + tax from Admin → Settings.
4. Confirmation confirm.html shows a human-readable order ID, items, charges, and any booking details saved earlier.
5. Admin Area
   • Log in with any email + password admin123
   • Dashboard summarizes order stats
   • Orders lets you update statuses
   • The menu lets you edit items per restaurant
   • Settings controls the delivery fee and tax for pricing math

Customization Guide

Content & Data

• Restaurants & Menus: Edit data/restaurants.json (IDs, names, cuisines, cities, items, and prices).
• Static Pages: Update copy in about.html, contact.html, faq.html, terms.html, and privacy.html.

Customization Guide

• Edit content:
  • Modify text or page layout directly in the HTML files.
• Change theme colors:
  • Tweak CSS variables in assets/style.css under :root and [data-theme="dark"].
• Update restaurant data:
  • Edit or replace data/restaurants.json. Each restaurant object includes name, city, cuisine, rating, and menu array.
• Modify behavior:
  • All interactivity (cart, checkout, admin actions) lives in assets/script.js.

Behavior

• Cart & Booking: Logic lives in assets/script.js (cart persistence, booking form state, totals).
• Admin: Also in assets/script.js — menu overrides and settings persist in localStorage.

Quick Start

1. Unzip the template.
2. Run a local server (browsers block AJAX on file://): Then open http://localhost:8000/ in your browser.

# Option 1: Using Python
python -m http.server 5500

# Option 2: Using VS Code
Install “Live Server” and click “Go Live”

Then open:

http://localhost:5500/index.html

3. Browse & order (demo): add dishes, fill guest checkout, confirm.

4. Admin demo: go to /admin/login.html, use any email + password admin123.

5. Customize: edit restaurants.json, tweak styles, change fees/tax in Admin → Settings.
