Marula Monkey

Marula Monkey is a lively cocktail bar known for late-night events, DJs and a bold, colourful brand. The old site didn’t reflect the venue’s personality, was hard to update, and made it difficult to promote weekly events or capture private-hire enquiries.
‍

We rebuilt the site in Webflow with two priorities: translate the brand visually online, and make the site a simple, effective promotional engine for events and bookings.
‍

What we delivered:
‍

• Full Webflow rebuild that mirrors Marula Monkey’s energetic, colourful identity across desktop and mobile.
• Integrated booking/reservations flow so customers can reserve tables and private areas without third-party friction.
• CMS-driven events calendar and promotions area, enabling the team to publish upcoming nights, DJs and special offers quickly.
• Social and mailing-list sign-up hooks to capture audience details for event marketing.
• Mobile-first UX and performance tweaks to improve load times and conversion on phones.
• Local SEO basics and schema for events to improve discoverability.
• Handover session and simple CMS how-to so staff can add events, upload flyers and update menus themselves.

‍

Key outcomes:
‍

• Website now acts as the primary events hub — faster publishing of weekly lineups and easier promotion.
• Increased online enquiries for private hire and higher visibility for event pages in local search.
• Reduced dependency on external tools and less time spent by staff on content updates.
