The brief

What they needed

The Shakespeare is an English pub and sports bar in Ekkamai. They needed a website that shows off the food, the beer and the live sport, that people looking for a British pub in Bangkok actually find, and that staff can keep up to date without calling a developer.

  • Be found for searches like “English pub Bangkok”, “Sunday roast” and “live sport”
  • Let staff update menus, promotions and fixtures themselves
  • Turn visitors into table reservations
What we did

How we built it
