Paper City Barbecue

A home on the web for a family-owned BBQ spot in Westbrook, Maine

Paper City Barbecue needed a fast, mobile-friendly site that could show off the food, funnel guests to the right ordering channel, and make it easy to inquire about catering. Built as a static Next.js export on Firebase Hosting with a SendGrid-backed catering inquiry form.

Paper City Barbecue

The Goal

Paper City had a basic WordPress site with PDF scans of their menu and no online ordering links. They needed a modern site that captured the restaurant's personality — smoked meats, craft cocktails, and 50+ whiskeys — while cleanly directing guests to the right action: order online, book catering, or find the restaurant.

Clear ordering paths

Three order options (Upserve Takeout, CarHop Delivery, DoorDash) surfaced without overwhelming the menu experience.

Catering pipeline

A dedicated catering inquiry form that routes leads directly to the owners' inbox with a customer confirmation email.

Hours, location, phone

Fast access to the essentials every local-business site needs — above-the-fold on mobile.

Brand-forward visual design

Food photography and copy tuned to match the in-restaurant atmosphere.

The Site

Outcome

Paper City now has a single source of truth on the web. Catering inquiries land in the owners' inbox instantly, and guests have one clean place to find hours, menus, and ordering channels.
