A few specific fixes for porridgepantry.co.uk
Porridge · Brixham · website rebuild
I rebuild small-business websites in my spare time when I can see they are leaving conversions on the table. I spent half an hour on porridgepantry.co.uk this week and three things stood out on mobile, all fixable without changing what Clare and the family team are already doing on Fore Street.
Three findings below, then a working rebuild you can click through and judge.
The storefront is the strongest first impression, and it is below the fold.
The PORRIDGE sage-green fascia, the pavement produce display, the cafe chairs on Fore Street. That one photograph is the single biggest reason a visitor to Brixham walks into the shop. On the live homepage it sits below four generic Unsplash category tiles for Food and Drink, Health, Household and Gifts.
The rebuild leads with that storefront on first paint and pushes the WooCommerce grid below the cafe, the story and the visit block. The real shop earns the first impression.

The cafe pulls locally roasted Voyager Coffee from Penzance, blends six smoothies to order, serves Pastel de Nata at £2.50, and last cafe orders run to 15:45. None of that surfaces on the live homepage. A holidaymaker scanning Brixham cafes on a phone sees a 1,500-line WooCommerce grid and assumes the shop sells groceries rather than serves coffee.
The rebuild gives the cafe its own anchored block with the smoothie names, the coffee provenance, the cake stand quirks, and the 15:45 last-orders detail.

Google can't currently tell Search that Porridge is a Store with a Cafe at 13 Fore Street, Brixham TQ5 8AA, with a 4.9 Tripadvisor average, opening hours Mon to Sat 09:00 to 17:00, closed Sundays, and a Food Drink Devon Business of the Year credential on the wall. The Bio-D refill stockist status doesn't make it into the schema either.
The rebuild includes a Store plus Cafe LocalBusiness JSON-LD block with both the postal address, the E.164 phone number, opening hours, the aggregate rating, and a FAQPage block for the questions customers actually ask the counter.

If the proposal lands, reply with two or three 20-minute slots in the next ten days for a video call. I take on three Devon builds this quarter, and first confirmed wins the slot. If I don't hear back by 28 May, the proposal site comes down.
