QR codes instead of paper menus in restaurants

07/06/2024QR codes instead of paper menus in restaurants

In the restaurant business, after Covid, there has been a trend towards completely replacing paper menus with QR codes.


Indeed, there are a huge number of advantages to using a QR code instead of a traditional menu.

  • No printing costs. It needs to be regularly updated. If this is not done, it becomes dirty from greasy hands and unpresentable. Restaurants offer seasonal menus and specials, so for continuous updates, it is more convenient to use an interactive version.
  • Helping the environment by eliminating paper. This is an important and necessary step that prevents the disposal of a large amount of trash. 
  • Saving the customer's time.
    To access the menu, you only need a phone and the internet.
    Previously, when you went to a restaurant, you sometimes had to wait a long time for the waiter to bring the menu.
    Sometimes you had to look for the waiter. Now you simply need to scan the QR code with your phone's camera, and the menu is at your fingertips in seconds!
  • Translation issues.
     In many restaurants, the menu is in one or two languages. With electronic menus, you can now easily translate them into any language.
  • Understanding dish names.
    Previously, to understand what a dish was, you had to ask the waiter. If they do not speak your language, it is a huge problem to understand what the dish consists of. Now you can easily find a description and approximate photos of the dish.
  • The ability to view a photo of the dish. Often, paper menus had poor print quality and could not convey the juicy colors of a delicious dish.
  • The ability to quickly search for a specific dish through the search bar of the electronic menu.
  • The opportunity to provide more information to customers about the restaurant.
    Its history, founders, values, and other locations.
