LiveA Food Cart Pod, Taphouse & Arcade Gets a Website as Warm as the Patio
A 26-page SSR-prerendered site for NE Cully's neighborhood hangout: real photography, full schema, and a page for every party.
www.thebackpatio.info
Objective
The Back Patio is the owners' own multi-year project: Mike & Jennifer Usselman spent roughly two and a half years converting a former cannabis dispensary on NE Cully Blvd into a food cart pod, taphouse, and pinball arcade, opening in November 2025.
They needed a website that answered everything a guest asks before visiting: which carts are here, what's on tap, what games are on the floor, what's happening this week, and how to book the space for a party.

The Opportunity
A husband-and-wife team poured two and a half years into transforming a former dispensary into Cully's backyard hangout: food carts, craft taps, pinball, and a patio built for lingering. The name itself is personal: Jennifer's own back patio at home was her happy place. The website had to carry that warmth while answering the practical questions that fill a venue's inbox.

The Solution
A 26-page Vite + React site, SSR-prerendered for speed and crawlability: dedicated pages for the food carts, drinks, games, events, families, and four private-event packages (birthdays, corporate, holiday, weddings). Real on-site photography replaced every generated placeholder. Structured data via a full JSON-LD system with breadcrumbs, plus llms.txt and llms-full.txt so AI search engines can read the venue fluently.

The Impact
The site is live at thebackpatio.info: every page prerendered at build time, real photos of the actual machines and patio, and content architecture that lets guests self-serve answers about carts, events, and bookings around the clock.
