About This Template

The first venue-opening waitlist

Hearth is for a new hospitality venue opening soon and building a list for the first tables — a restaurant, a wine bar, a café, a supper club. Every other Sitelas waitlist sells software, a product, property, or a course; hearth sells a night out that hasn't opened yet. The register is warm-atmospheric: charcoal near-black, cream, a single ember accent, an elegant DM Serif Display against Inter, and appetising photography. It reads like a room you want a table in, not a landing page.

Venue-native signatures

An opening-date and address eyebrow set the anticipation. A menu preview shows the signature dishes without a full menu. A 'the place' block answers where, when, and how many seats. An atmosphere photograph carries the mood, and a chef credit gives it a name. None of these belong on a software waitlist.

Newsletter-signup / opening-list conversion

The page funnels to one join-the-list form. Submissions land in the Sitelas inbox; add a webhook to forward them to your booking tool so the list gets first tables when you open. Swap the join button for a reservation link once the doors are open.

Hearth

'Opening soon' / join-the-list waitlist for a new hospitality VENUE — the first restaurant-opening waitlist in the catalog. Warm-atmospheric ember register: charcoal near-black, cream, a single ember accent, DM Serif Display against Inter — image-led and moody, distinct from the light food templates (beacon / latte) and from fine-dining juniper. Venue-native signatures no product waitlist has: an opening-date + location eyebrow, a menu preview of signature dishes, a 'the place' details block (opening / address / room / kitchen), an atmosphere photograph band, a chef credit, and a 'join the list for the first tables' form. Single-page: split hero (join-the-list form + a wood-fire photograph) → a taste of the menu → the place details → an atmosphere image band → who's cooking → the-list momentum → FAQ → join CTA → footer. Conversion is newsletter-signup (join the opening list). Demo persona is 'Vesta', a wood-fire neighbourhood restaurant opening in Fitzroy, Melbourne, but the design suits any café / bar / restaurant / studio opening. Distinct from every software / product / real-estate / course waitlist, and from reyes/juniper/beacon.
