Why Add a Cover Photo
A well-chosen cover photo allows you to:
Capture attention right from the homepage.
Showcase your establishment: display your dishes, your interior, or your storefront.
Encourage engagement: an attractive visual increases the time spent on the site and interactions (reservations, orders, contacts).
Concrete examples:
Signature dish on a neutral background.
Bright and welcoming interior.
Attractive storefront or event space.
