Problem

The Golden Lion had strong local trade and social presence, but no website when Tracy wanted a proper home for the pub online. Guests needed opening details, a clear view of sport and live music, and a simple way to enquire about private hire without chasing Facebook messages.

Approach

We built a single-page site from the client's Stitch design direction: a warm hero with the pub exterior, a What's On section for fixtures and events, and a party enquiry form that emails Tracy directly. Navigation stays on one scrollable page so regulars can check hours on their phone at the bar. We refined mobile layout after launch: hamburger nav, tighter feature strip, and a stacked footer for small screens.

Deliverables

Single-page site with Home, What's On, party enquiry, and Find Us
Party enquiry form routed to goldenlionbasingstoke@pubsupport.co.uk
Live on goldenlionbasingstoke.co.uk with SSL on Coolify and IONOS DNS
UF Labs Studio Console portal for site care and monthly stats

Outcome

The Golden Lion is live with a modern pub presence, party leads going straight to Tracy's inbox, and UF Labs handling hosting, security, and ongoing care through the studio portal.
