Builder Blocks: Restaurant

Builder Restaurant Block adds a number of features to your Builder site that turn it into an easy-to-use resaurant site. Builder Child Child - Entre and Builder Child - Entre Pub are designed to work specifically with the Builder Restaurant Block by providing matching page templates for Menu items and Locations.

Installation

1. Download the Restaurant Block plugin from iThemes Member Panel.
2. From the WordPress dashboard, navigate to Plugins > Add New.
3. Install and Activate the builder-block-restaurant zip file.

Once Builder Restaurant Block has been installed, you'll notice two new menus have been added to the left-hand navigation of your WordPress dashboard:

• Menu Items - Add menu items with a title, text, price, featured image and apply a course type or allergy
• Locations - Add restaurant location(s) with a title, text, address (and map), featured image, features, cuisines, hours and contact details.

Menu Items

Builder Restaurant Block creates a custom post type for menu items displayed in a "menu" archive.

The Menu Items menu expands to reveal several pages:

• All Menu Items - A listing of all menu "posts"
• Add New - The "Add New Menu Item" page
• Courses - A "category" listing of course types, including by default appetizers, desserts, drinks, entrees, salads, sides and soups. You can also add custom course categories.
• Allergies - A "category" listing of allergy types, including by default dairy, eggs, peanuts, rice, seafood, shellfish, soy, tree nuts and wheat. You can also add custom course categories.

Courses

The Courses page lists available course "categories" that can be applied to menu items. Default courses include appetizers, desserts, drinks, entrees, salads, sides and soups.

You can customize the allergy categories by adding new allergies or removing the defaults.
