*New to coding and desperately need some help*
My site looks great on desktop but when opened within a smaller screens (mobiles & some tablets) there's excess space on the right side of the page. And also the navbar completely disappears. Any suggestion on how I can get rid of the excess space and show the navbar on smaller screens? Have included my code :) Thanks

I am not seeing excessive space on the right, however, you have a few issues, like the disappearing navbar. To fix this issue:

1. CSS Section markers:
CSS
\\\\ Order CSS \\\\\

should be:
CSS
/* \\\ Order CSS \\\\ */


2. If using position: absolute; you need to set position: relative; on the parent element.

3. Top, Left, Right, Bottom properties only work within a position: absolute;.

4. clip-path: polygon(0 0, 100% 0, 100% 0, 0 0); is hiding your navbar.

So, to fix the above issues, you need to make the following changes:
CSS
header {
    position: relative;
    background: #a8b98a;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}

/* \\\ Order CSS \\\\ */

media (max-width:800px){
    header .navbar {
        position: absolute;
        background: #a8b98a;
        border-top: .1rem solid rgba(0,0,0,.2);
        border-bottom: .1rem solid rgba(0,0,0,.2);
        padding: 1rem;
    }
}

There are other issues however this fixes the disappearing navbar.

As for the space on the right, It might be your loader. I have that set to display: none; so I could see your page.
