The brief

A restaurant inspired by the bouillons of Paris — simple, affordable French food — needed a site as unfussy as the room.

Bouillon Albert recreates the warm, convivial atmosphere of a Parisian bouillon on the Plateau: escargots, bone marrow, duck confit, profiteroles, and prices that invite you back the same week.

We designed and built a bilingual site in French and English with a deep bottle-green palette, an illustrated mark and photography of the plates themselves. Everything a diner needs — the menu, the hours, the address, the phone number — is on the first screen or one tap away.

What we built

Three things a restaurant site has to do: show the food, show the menu, get you to the table.

  • French and English

    Every page in both languages, with a language switch in the header, for a Montréal audience that reads either.

  • The menu

    Starters, mains, vegetables and desserts as a clean price list, easy to update as the kitchen changes dishes.

  • Reserve a table

    A persistent reservation button, the hours, address and phone number in the header and footer, and an Instagram link for what’s on tonight.

Questions people ask

What did Autograph build for Bouillon Albert?

We designed and built the restaurant’s bilingual WordPress website: the homepage, the about page and the menu in French and English, with reservations, hours and contact details on every page.

Is the site in French and English?

Yes. Every page exists in both languages with a switch in the header, which matters for a restaurant on the Plateau Mont-Royal.

Can the restaurant change the menu itself?

Yes. The menu is a structured price list in WordPress, so dishes and prices can be changed without touching the design.
