Does page speed matter for my restaurant ordering website?
Updated 14 October 2026
Yes. Google highly recommends good Core Web Vitals: main content in 2.5 seconds, response to taps under 200 milliseconds and layout shift under 0.1.
- Targets: LCP within 2.5 seconds, INP under 200 ms, CLS under 0.1.
- No fixed ranking weight: Google does not say how much speed counts in Search.
- Compress dish photos so the menu opens fast.
- Avoid heavy pop-ups on the ordering page.
- Test on a phone using mobile data, the way customers order.
