Restaurant menu QR code

Build a menu that reads beautifully on a phone: sections, dishes, prices, photos and translations. Update it any time; the code on the table stays the same.

What is a menu QR code?

A menu QR code opens your restaurant menu on the guest's phone: sections, dishes, prices, photos and translations, built for a small screen instead of a zoomed-in PDF. RelyQr hosts the menu, so you can change prices or specials any time and the code on every table stays the same.

What’s inside the code

https://go.relyqr.com/k7m2p9qa

The code holds a short RelyQr link to a menu page RelyQr hosts, shown in the guest's language when you've added it. Because the page lives online, you can change it any time and the printed code keeps working.

How to make a menu QR code

  1. 1

    Add your dishes

    Sections like Starters and Drinks, then each dish with its price, a description and a photo.

  2. 2

    Translate it

    Add languages; guests see the menu in theirs, with the same prices and photos.

  3. 3

    Create and print

    Sign in free, then print table tents or stickers. Change a price in seconds, any time.

What happens when someone scans it

Guests get a fast, readable menu in their phone's browser, in their own language when you've added it. No PDF zooming, no app.

Always dynamic

Menu codes are always dynamic, because prices and dishes change. Already have a designed PDF menu? The PDF type works too, but a menu page reads far better on a phone and switches language.

No watermark, and RelyQr codes never expire, on any plan. Static vs dynamic, explained

Printing a menu QR code

On table tents and stickers, 4 to 6 cm wide scans easily from where guests sit. On a window or wall menu read from 2 m, about 20 cm. QR code size chart

  • Print the table tent layout: it reads from both sides once folded.
  • Update daily specials here instead of reprinting.

Menu QR code not working?

Guests see yesterday's prices
Edits reach every new scan within a minute. A menu that was already open shows the new prices after a reload.
The menu loads slowly
Big photos cost time on mobile data. RelyQr resizes photos for phones; skip photos for items that don't need them.
Guests can't scan in dim light
Use a matte finish and dark dots on a light background, and place the code where the table light reaches it.

Menu QR code questions

Can I change menu prices after printing?

Yes. Edit the menu and guests see the new prices within a minute; the QR code on the table stays the same.

Can the menu be in several languages?

Yes. Add translations of names and descriptions; guests see their language, and prices and photos are shared.

Do guests need an app to see the menu?

No. The menu opens in the phone's browser and loads fast.

Should I use a PDF or a menu page?

A menu page is easier to read on a phone, loads faster and switches language. A PDF is fine if you already have a designed menu and rarely change it.

Is a menu QR code free?

Yes. A menu QR code uses one of the free plan's 3 dynamic codes, with no watermark, and it never expires.
