Website Re-Design in CT: Capturing the Chicago Sam's Atmosphere 

Chicago Sam's of Cromwell strives to make each individual's visit to their bar a truly great time and it was important to their owners that the website capture that same atmosphere while providing potential patrons with all the information they could potentially want about upcoming events, menus, specials, etc. Middletown-based branding and web design agency, Palm Tree, approached the website project with the intention of creating a fun and interactive design that could be easily navigated for an all around great user experience.  

The new Chicago Sam's website does exactly that. Visitors are greeted with a home page prominently featuring daily and weekly specials, upcoming events, and the latest flyers.  Palm Tree also incorporated some truly unique elements such as an animated Chicago Sam's blimp featured upcoming big events, an interactive jukebox that enables visitors to listen to their favorite songs while browsing the website, and a convenient VIP sign-up form.  When visitors start exploring the website, they can view a full event calendar, photo galleries and the full menu conveniently organized by category.
