Bodega – Small Business WordPress Theme Overview
Bodega – Small Business WordPress Theme is a presentation-focused design for local businesses that want an eye-catching website with room to grow into online sales. It ships with 30 pre-built demos, and elements from different demos can be combined, so a business can mix a service presentation with one of three blog layouts or add shop sections where they make sense.
The theme is developed by Select-Themes and includes the WPBakery Page Builder and LayerSlider plugins, plus a Bodega Core plugin. Its templates cover the pages a local firm needs, from service presentations to portfolios and contact forms.
Bodega’s character comes from motion. Its Select Slider supports parallax, image and video slides, and SVG line-drawing animation, while border-drawing effects, scroll-controlled animations and clipping-mask animations bring sections to life as visitors move down the page. Navigation is equally flexible, with a customizable mega menu, fullscreen and side menus, a sticky content menu built from page sections, and AJAX page transitions. Video background sections add depth, and WooCommerce integration turns the same design into a small online store.

Who Bodega – Small Business WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
Bodega suits Canadian small businesses that sell on presentation: design studios, boutiques, cafés and specialty food shops, consultants, marketing agencies and local service firms. A boutique could pair a lookbook-style homepage with a WooCommerce catalogue, while a consultancy could use the portfolio and blog layouts to explain its services and share case studies.
Because the animation features are prominent, the theme fits brands that want a polished, dynamic first impression. Businesses that prefer a very simple, text-led site may find it more elaborate than they need.
Important Notes About Bodega – Small Business WordPress Theme
The update log shows ongoing maintenance, most recently in August 2026 with WPBakery Page Builder 9 compatibility; current compatibility should still be confirmed on the demo. Version 3.5 removed a number of WooCommerce template overrides from the theme, so cart, checkout and account pages now follow WooCommerce’s own templates, and their styling should be checked. Demo images are for presentation only and are not licensed for your site, so real photos or purchased stock are needed.
If the shop is used, prices, taxes, shipping and refund terms must be clearly stated, and the business owner is responsible for meeting consumer protection rules.
