What we really like about this Custom Theme:
There is no need to get a Theme that "kind of works" for your business and then spend weeks or months hacking it up, or paying someone to hack it up, to make it do all the things you need. The "Diner" Theme comes out of the box with everything you need. Check this out:
1) A Smooth uncluttered Professional Diner / Restaurant / Bar Theme from a company with a full time support staff
2) It already has Built in Reservations Functionality – no need to pay for custom programming to add this!
3)This professional Bar/Diner/Restaurant theme also has a built in custom Menu post template that lets you quickly and easily set up a post for each of your menu items. It even has built in customer feedback!
4) Google maps is already built in to the custom restaurant Location template. Why have a simple text address when you can give your customers a custom Google map with directions? And its built right in to WooThemes Diner.
5) Woothemes Diner is highly flexible with 11 different color styles to choose from
6) and as always the great easy to use WooThemes admin panels to easily control all the options and settings with a click of the mouse.
