How to Create a Restaurant Menu QR Code in 5 Minutes
Upload your menu, generate a dynamic QR code, print it at 2"×2" or larger, and put it on the table. Because the code is dynamic, you can change the menu it points at later without reprinting anything.
Get your menu online
Any public URL works — a PDF, a Google Doc, your existing menu page, or the built-in Pro plan menu builder. It only needs to be readable on a phone.
Generate a dynamic QR code
Paste the menu URL into the generator. Choose dynamic, not static: dynamic codes can be repointed later, so a menu change never means a reprint.
Brand it (optional)
Add your logo and colours so the code looks like it belongs on the table, and keep enough contrast that it still scans.
Print at 2×2 inches or larger
Download PNG or SVG. Test-scan the actual print, not the screen, before you run a batch — glossy laminate and low contrast are the usual culprits.
Put it where people look
Table tents, the corner of a physical menu, the window, the counter. Add "Scan for Menu" text — adoption drops sharply without a label.

If something goes wrong
The code won't scan
- •Print at 2×2 inches minimum
- •Raise contrast; avoid glossy stock and glare
- •Wipe the surface — grease is common on tables
- •Test on more than one phone
The menu won't load
- •Open the destination URL directly in a browser
- •Confirm the menu is public, not permission-locked
- •Check it renders on mobile, not just desktop
Customers ignore it
- •Add explicit "Scan for Menu" text
- •Brief staff to mention it once at seating
- •Keep a few printed menus as backup
- •Move it to eye level

Restaurant QR Code FAQs
How do restaurant QR codes work?▾
Customers scan the code and your digital menu, WiFi password, or review page opens on their own phone. Because the codes are dynamic, you can update prices and items anytime without printing new menus.
Can I update my menu without reprinting QR codes?▾
You change the menu content, prices, and items from your dashboard whenever you like. The code itself never changes, so table tents, stickers, and posters stay valid and you never reprint.
What can I put behind a restaurant QR code?▾
A digital menu, WiFi credentials, your reservation or ordering page, a Google or Yelp review link, daily specials, and contact info. Many restaurants run several at once: one for the menu, one for WiFi, one for reviews.
How much does a restaurant QR code cost?▾
The free plan includes 10 QR codes, enough for a small restaurant. Paid plans start at $9/mo (Starter) and $29/mo (Pro adds the built-in Menu Builder, advanced analytics, and custom branding). No setup fees or contracts.
Do customers need an app to scan the menu?▾
No. Customers scan with the built-in camera on any recent iPhone or Android, tap the link, and your menu opens. There's nothing for them to install.
Can I see how many customers scan my menu?▾
The analytics dashboard shows scan counts, peak times, and locations, so you can see when your menu gets the most attention and measure the impact of table tents, posters, and promotions.
