Tellhoven. For houses people come to in order to stay

Tellhoven is the template for a coffee house, a café or a patisserie with its own craft. Dark roast colours over a blurred backdrop, widely spaced capitals and seventeen pages that answer two questions at once: is it open now, and what should I order here.

The story

The most common question in a café is on no website

Read the full story

At the counter nobody asks about origin and processing. They ask: what should I take? And before that, already on the way: is it even open?

Tellhoven answers both before anyone has to search. The closing band of every page computes the opening status in real time and names the minutes until last orders. On the coffee page sits the coffee finder: three questions, eight answers, each with a picture and one sentence.

The rest of the site explains the craft in figures instead of adjectives. Six kilos per batch, twelve minutes, first crack after 10:40. 42 hours of dough, 30 of them in the cold room. Four rooms with their light, plus a grid from the till figures showing when it gets busy.

And in four places it says what does not work: no syrup pumps, no loyalty app, allergens only complete at the counter, and in every journal post a paragraph about what fails.

Scroll through the homepage

The Tellhoven homepage travels as you scroll. Each stop explains why a section is built the way it is.

tellhoven.de
Full homepage of the Tellhoven template
  1. 01

    A sheet over a blurred backdrop

    Behind the page lies a softly blurred café, in front of it the sheet at 84rem wide. From 1408 pixels it steps forward with a shadow. No text sits on a sharp photograph.

  2. 02

    The opening status works with the clock

    At the end of every page it says whether the house is open and how many minutes are left until last orders. It is computed in the time zone of the house, from a weekly plan, not from a sentence somebody has to maintain.

  3. 03

    The coffee finder is the heart of it

    Three questions with two answers each, eight combinations, eight recommendations from your own menu. Ten seconds instead of a conversation at the counter that many guests would rather not have.

  4. 04

    Eight sections are drawn, not photographed

    Floor plan, footfall grid, dough timeline, roast curve, altitudes, cup diagram, grind sizes and route sketch are HTML and SVG. Sharp on every screen, checkable for contrast, translatable without a new export.

  5. 05

    Capitals with wide letter spacing

    Playfair Display only speaks in capitals, Inter carries everything else. Two typefaces with separate jobs, and no text below fourteen pixels, not even in the smallest label.

The signature feature

Sixteen drinks on the menu, and the guest still asks what should I take

The coffee finder answers that in three clicks. Strong or mild, hot or cold, with milk or black. From the eight combinations comes one recommendation from your own menu, with a picture and one sentence saying why.

  1. Eight answers, one object

    Every combination is an entry with a name, a sentence and a motif. A different menu means changing eight lines, not rebuilding the component.

  2. Operable, not decorative

    The choice moves into aria-pressed, the result changes image, name and text without reloading. A test script clicks through all eight paths and checks that the image really loads.

  3. Transferable to any menu

    Three questions about tea, about bread, about cake. A place with only six items takes two questions and gets four answers.

  4. Plus the opening status

    On every page, in real time, with the minutes until last orders. The second question of every guest, answered without a click.

Who Tellhoven is built for

A template gets good by making choices. Tellhoven is tailored to one niche, and honest about where it does not fit.

Built for

  1. Coffee houses, cafés and patisseries with their own bakery or roastery, where the room carries the business
  2. Businesses with a long menu that want to take the choice off their guests without tying somebody up at the counter
  3. Houses with courses, tastings or group offers that have to show dates, places and lead times
  4. Hosts who write opening hours, footfall and house rules down openly instead of sorting them out at the door

Not meant for

  • Roasteries that mainly ship. Rooms, floor plan, footfall and house rules are a whole main page, and there is no checkout. For shipping and subscriptions Darnholt fits better.
  • Chains with several houses. Opening hours, floor plan and directions are built for one place. From the second location on you need a location page with its own weekly plan.
  • Restaurants with an evening menu and reservations. The template knows an enquiry, not a table booking with a time and a number of people.
  • Light, airy appearances. Tellhoven is dark roasted, with crema on espresso. If you are looking for paper brightness, Darnholt has it.

Quick answers

Yes. The roastery is one page that can go, and fifteen remain. What matters more is that there is some craft of your own to show: a bakery, a kitchen, a patisserie. If you buy everything in, delete the section instead of filling it with someone else's craft.

Not as a booking. There is an enquiry by form, and the text says reservations only apply to groups of six and more. If you want real bookings, connect a booking system and link it from the header. The privacy policy then needs a section about it.

From a weekly plan in the data file, computed in the time zone of the house, plus a list of closing days. The closing band shows the status, the minutes until last orders and the next opening. It runs in the browser, without a server and without maintenance.

No, and that is deliberate. Both pages are frames on noindex and hold a list of what belongs in them, but no pre written legal text. A hospitality business needs details an agency site does not, for example the competent supervisory authority.

Both are covered. The pastries page says the full declaration is on display at the counter and which base ingredients are in everything. The skill copywriting carries the limits of the Health Claims Regulation with examples of what is forbidden and what works instead.

The German version is formal throughout, including form hints, confirmations and the consent dialogue. The English version keeps the same plain distance. If you want to change register, the skill copywriting has the rule: all of it or none of it, including the small texts that are easy to forget.

None to start with. Fifty seven motifs are included, each with photographer, profile, source and an uncropped original outside the web root. Eight sections are drawn and never need a photo.

No, all invented, and the site says so itself. The footer states on every page that company name, address, prices, dates, figures and quotes are examples. There is no street called Ofenhof in Cologne, and the phone number comes from the 555 range reserved for fiction.

Nothing as delivered. Fonts and images are local, no web analytics is built in, only an empty slot for it, and the map from OpenStreetMap only appears after explicit consent.

Built statically, no image above 200 kilobytes, every image with dimensions and matching widths, and all behaviour in two small scripts without a third party package. Without JavaScript everything stays visible, only the motion is missing.

Three places have to say the same thing: the weekly plan that drives the status and the structured data, the short version on the contact page and the times inside the texts, for example in the baking plan. The skill quality-assurance lists them with file and field name.

Yes, bought once and yours forever, for your own projects and for client projects, without a subscription and without attribution. What does not work is reselling the template as a template.

Yes, as its own version: a fully English website, not a German one with English instructions. Figures and prices carry the English notation, and the language hangs on a single place in the code.
