A website for your restaurant in Lyon
Search your restaurant 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
France's gastronomic capital lives for its bouchons and market-driven cooking, with an independent food-and-drink culture spread between the Presqu'île, Croix-Rousse and the old town.
The bouchon is Lyon's institution: convivial, meaty and unapologetic, serving quenelle de brochet, andouillette, tablier de sapeur and saucisson brioché washed down with pots of Beaujolais. Beyond them, Les Halles Paul Bocuse and a young bistronomie scene keep the city's reputation as France's belly firmly intact. Whatever your restaurant is known for, Clay turns your Google listing into a real website, photos, hours, reviews and a map, so people in Lyon find you and know what to expect before they visit.
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.

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.
I have a bouchon with a fixed formule that changes every day. Can the page keep up?
Yes, and it is meant to be changed daily. The menu is part of the page, so the formule du jour is one edit from your phone between services, not a document to re-export and email to whoever holds the website password.
Can guests book a table?
Yes, add a booking or contact widget, or link straight to your existing reservation system. Clay is flexible about how you take bookings.
Do you charge per cover like the booking platforms?
No. Reservations are part of the site and there is no fee per booking and no separate booking plan. You keep the guest and their phone number: table booking.
