Son Colom.

Case study

Custom website in Felanitx. A Mallorcan restaurant that had been open for years without a website. A first online presence with an in-house panel to manage the menu and daily specials, commission-free reservations and four structural languages.

Restaurant website with admin panel, delivered in March 2026.

The brief

Open for years, not a single website. Edwin put it straight: it had to work for the kitchen, not just look pretty.

Son Colom is a restaurant in Felanitx serving Mallorcan cuisine with no shortcuts: tripe, frit, homemade croquettes, Andalusian-style squid. They had loyal customers, but the whole operation ran through phone, social media and word of mouth. The website had to be a tool to run the day to day, not a pretty postcard.

  1. 01

    Daily menu editable every day

    A village restaurant changes the menu daily. No PDFs or FTP. As quick as writing it on the blackboard.

    Admin panel
  2. 02

    In-house reservations, no TheFork

    Reservation fees stay out. Customer data stays in the restaurant.

    Own system
  3. 03

    Four real languages

    Spanish and Catalan for local customers. English and German for tourists who travel inland looking for proper Mallorcan cooking.

    Multi-language

The dining room's day-to-day, screen by screen.

Four systems that live behind every visit.

A pretty website is half the work. The other half is the architecture that decides whether the site is still useful six months later, without touching a line of code.

System architecture in 4 layers

    In-house admin panel.

    Edwin logs into the panel from the restaurant's browser and manages everything. No developer in between, no invoices for moving a comma.
