A website for pubs, live in minutes
What is on, and is the kitchen still doing food. Everything else is decoration.
A real Clay site, built from a Google listing
A pub is two businesses sharing a roof, and the page has to answer for both without turning into a menu with a beer list stapled to it.
So the kitchen hours sit beside the bar hours, and what is on this week is a band you change in a minute. Clay builds the site from your Google listing, and the Sunday roast, the quiz and the match all get their own line, because those are the three things people are actually searching for.
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.
Food until, which is not the same as open until
Somebody ringing at half eight is asking one question and it is never about the bar. Two times, side by side, and the phone stops ringing.
Sunday is its own answer. Roast from twelve until it goes, and say that it goes, because the table that arrived at half three is the review about the roast being off.
The quiz, the match, the band
This is the only thing anybody searches a pub for by name, and it is the thing almost no pub page has. One line each, with a day and a time.
Say which screens show what. A pub showing the away game in the back room is a pub thirty people will cross town for.
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.

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.
Why two sets of hours?
Because they are two different businesses and the caller is always asking about the kitchen. One number answers half the question and causes the other half.
Should I list what is on?
Yes, with a day and a time on each. It is the only reason anybody searches for a specific pub rather than for pubs near them.
Do I need table bookings?
For the Sunday roast, almost certainly: how the booking works holds the sittings without a diary behind the bar.
