PatioTime – Restaurant WordPress Theme Overview
PatioTime – Restaurant WordPress Theme is a design by LoftOcean for small restaurants, cafés, bars and other food businesses that want a contemporary website they can edit visually. It is built around Elementor, with 12 pre-made demos that import in one click.
The theme covers the practical side of a restaurant site with flexible online reservation options, including forms built with Contact Form 7, and WooCommerce for selling anything from takeout items to gift products. Galleries can be shown as sliders, grids or mosaics, an Instagram feed can be added, and a header and footer builder lets you design those areas without code.
Design control is extensive: colours and typography can be changed with a live preview, there are light and dark colour schemes, and fonts can come from over 1,000 Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts or your own uploaded files. It supports RTL languages, WPML and Polylang, and was last updated in May 2026.

Who PatioTime – Restaurant WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
PatioTime suits Canadian restaurants, cafés, bars, pastry shops and seafood or steak houses that already use Elementor, or want to, and value a modern design they can adjust themselves. The variety of demos makes it easy to find a starting point for anything from a casual patio restaurant in Kelowna to a fine-dining room in Montréal, and the WooCommerce support suits businesses offering takeout, meal kits or gift items.
RTL and multilingual support also make it a good option for restaurants serving communities that read Arabic, Persian or Hebrew, as well as those that publish in English and French.
Important Notes About PatioTime – Restaurant WordPress Theme
PatioTime requires a self-hosted WordPress installation and its companion PatioTime Core plugin; the vendor notes that on WordPress.com only the Business plan allows custom themes. The changelog shows security fixes in 2025, including a file inclusion issue, so keeping the theme and core plugin updated matters. Demo images are replaced with placeholders on import, and the licence covers one site.
Online ordering or delivery brings provincial and municipal food-safety rules, and packaged food brings federal labelling rules. If you serve alcohol, provincial liquor licensing and advertising rules apply. Testimonials and star ratings must come from real guests, and Mailchimp sign-ups need consent under Canada’s anti-spam law. The owner is responsible for compliance.
Setup & Ongoing Management by AppiAppi
You choose PatioTime and buy its licence on ThemeForest, where LoftOcean remains the developer and support provider. AppiAppi installs the theme, PatioTime Core and Elementor, imports the demo closest to your concept, and replaces the placeholders with your logo, photography, menu, hours, location and galleries. We set up your reservation form or linked booking service and, if you offer takeout or delivery, configure WooCommerce with your items and pickup options.
After launch, AppiAppi manages the site according to your subscription plan: updating menus and specials, applying theme and security updates, and responding to reservation requests, orders and inquiries. Our AI-assisted SEO and content support helps your menu and location pages reach local diners.
