Ember & Oak
A moody, cinematic site for a wood-fired grill in the Northern Quarter.
Visit Live Site
Ember & Oak is fire, smoke and patience — a modern British grill built around an open hearth. We translated that warmth into a dark, cinematic site with a full interactive menu, private-dining enquiries, guest stories and a frictionless reservation flow, capturing the glow of the room before a guest ever walks through the door.

Ember & Oak sells an atmosphere — fire, smoke, low light, a room that hums. That feeling is nearly impossible to put on a screen. The site had to bottle the warmth of the restaurant and carry a guest smoothly from curiosity to a confirmed table.
How we built it
Cinematic by design
A dark, candlelit palette, warm accents and slow reveals recreate the glow of the dining room before a guest ever arrives.
The menu as centrepiece
An interactive, full menu and private-dining detail let guests explore the offering the way they'd read it at the table.
Reservations without friction
A streamlined booking flow and genuine guest stories turn interest into a confirmed table in a couple of taps.
