A website for your café in Milan
Search your café and Clay builds a real website, your photos, hours, reviews and a map, ready in minutes.
A real Clay site, built from a Google listing
Milan is Italy's style and design capital, where aperitivo is an art form and a fast-moving specialty-coffee and boutique-fitness scene sits beside elegant historic bars.
The Milanese coffee break is quick and stylish: an espresso standing at the bar, a cappuccino and brioche in the morning, and the historic Camparino and pasticcerie for the old guard. Milan also leads Italy's specialty-coffee wave, with third-wave roasters and flat-white cafés dotting Isola, NoLo and Porta Venezia. Whatever your café is known for, Clay turns your Google listing into a real website, photos, hours, reviews and a map, so people in Milan find you and know what to expect before they visit.
A city that leaves at 12:30 and comes back at 18:00
Milan's day has a shape no other Italian city has. The morning is a standing coffee and a brioche before nine, lunch is fast and crowded, and then the whole thing stops until aperitivo, and a café that does not decide which of those three it is ends up mediocre at all of them.
Navigli and Isola are aperitivo-first; Brera is a morning and a lunch. The page should say which one you are in the first line, because the customer is choosing a time slot as much as a place.
Why Clay
It pulls your info from Google
No blank page. Clay reads your Google business listing and fills in your name, photos, hours, map and reviews automatically.
A real website, not just links
Menus, bookings, a shop, a gallery, contact, Clay is a full site that also works as a link-in-bio, not a list of buttons.
Live in minutes, free to start
Search, pick a style, publish. No signup to see it, no credit card, and a free live address at name.clay.site.
Yours to grow
Bring a custom domain, add pro widgets, run multiple sites. It scales from a bio link to a full business site.
Your photographs, already sorted
Clay reads the pictures on your Google listing, grades them, crops them for the shape each band needs and puts the best one at the top. Nothing to upload, nothing to resize.
What you can switch on
Every one of these is part of your site, not a plugin to install. Turn on what you use and leave the rest off.
What it looks like when it is live
Drawn rather than described, the page, the address, and what it can switch on.

What you get
Questions
How long does it really take?
Most people are live in two to three minutes, search your business, pick a style, publish. There is nothing to install and no signup needed to see your site first, because it is built from your Google listing rather than from a blank page.
Is it free?
Yes. You get a live site on your own name.clay.site address with a small badge in the footer, and nothing expires. The paid plan is your own domain, the badge removed and the pro features.
Do I need any tech skills?
None. If you can type your business name, you can build a Clay site: the live page is the editor, so you tap the thing you want to change. There is no code anywhere, and nothing to install or keep updated, see the WordPress comparison for what that saves.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, buy it wherever you like and point it at Clay on a paid plan; the certificate is issued for you. Until then the free name.clay.site address is a real one you can print, and it keeps working afterwards.
We do aperitivo as well. Is that a separate menu?
It can be. A Clay menu holds as many courses as you type and you publish the ones you want visible, so an aperitivo list and a morning list live on the same page under their own headings. Changing which is showing is a tap, from your phone, between services.
Can I show the aperitivo hours separately from lunch?
Yes. A day can hold two windows, so closed in the afternoon and open again at six is a normal thing to state rather than a footnote. The line at the top of the page then answers correctly at four in the afternoon, which is when people are actually checking.
Can I show my menu?
Yes, Clay has a menu widget with sections, prices and photos. A café that generates from Google gets a menu block pre-filled, ready for you to tweak.
