Nice and clean Rob, the only thing 'wrong' with it is the credit to 'JML Web Solutions' isn't linked! At least link it to your email address.  ;)

OK, here's my constructive crit.

The quality of the header graphic is a bit low, maybe try a PNG?

Under Restaurant - About, remove apostrophe in "Our menu’s are constructed..." and move apostrophe to end of customers in "customer’s tastes."

Funny code comments popping throughout food menus - main and lunch, e.g. :

Code: Select all

<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
But really, well done.  :)

Thanks for the comments.

Changed all the text as suggested designhut.

Fixed all the error in the menus when using IE.

Thanks

I think you've got a great start!

I would however, consider using the colors in the actual logo that shown on the sign on changing image for the color palate as well as use the logo on the sign as the sites logo, and try to get a similar font as used in the actual Three Pigeons Inn sign.

The reason why I say this, is b/c I find the colors used to be almost "muddy"...desaturated and not very eye catching. I think white with that pretty teal and some green (like the picture of the sign) would be great for the site. 

You already have the logo (the sign) and I think that should be a main focus as that is its branding.

Anyway, just my $.02.  :)

no no no.
this kind of website can be much better.

1. use one or two fonts, no six of them, arial, arial narrow, trebuschet ms, verdana, georgia...
2. its 2008 use wider website 960px,
3. design can be much better, take a look at image this is made for 15 minutes.

People take me serious, we use modern CMS and our design need to feet all technology behind.
