Candlelight Tavern

A South Pearl Street dive bar had all the right info on a site nobody could read on a phone. I redesigned it to put specials, food, and hours where thumbs can reach them, without losing the personality.

The problem

The Candlelight is a real neighborhood bar: daily specials, wings on Tuesdays, the best Lions crowd in Denver. The website was a text dump that was hard to read on a phone, which is exactly where people check a bar at 9pm.

What I did

I designed it to feel like the room, dark and warm, not like a gastropub. Specials, food, and hours sit right at the top in the order a regular actually checks them. The whole thing is one fast page that runs on free hosting.

What this means for you

A redesign shouldn’t sand off what makes your place yours. If you want a site that’s easier to use but still feels like you, that’s the balance I build for.
