How do I make a QR code menu?

Create a free QR Enterprise account, choose the Menu QR type, add the link to your online menu, style the code with your colours and logo, then download print-ready PNG and SVG files. The printed code points to a permanent link, so you can change the menu URL whenever you like without reprinting.

Can I change my menu without reprinting the QR code?

Yes. Menu QR codes are Dynamic — the printed code encodes a permanent link, not the menu itself. Swap the menu URL for a new service, season or price list and the same printed code keeps working.

Do customers need an app to scan the menu?

No. Any modern phone camera opens the menu in the phone's browser. There is nothing to download or install, which keeps the experience quick at the table.

Is a QR code menu free to start?

QR Enterprise accounts start free with 5 real QR codes — 3 contact and 2 PDF — plus full colour, logo and style customization, PNG and SVG downloads, and permanent Dynamic links. No payment details are required.

A QR code menu your guests scan at the table

Print one code on every table. Swap the menu for lunch, dinner, drinks or seasonal specials from your dashboard — the printed QR never changes, so you stop reprinting every time a price moves.

Create your menu QR code free See pricing

Every new account includes 3 contact QR codes and 2 PDF QR codes, free. These are complete, downloadable, printable codes — not watermarked previews. Dynamic codes created for free keep their permanent link and stay editable. The free allowance is once per account and does not reset. Free PDF documents are limited to 10 MB each with 20 MB of storage in total, and analytics show scan totals rather than the full breakdowns.

Why restaurants use a QR code menu

One code, every table

Print the same QR code on a table tent or menu card. Guests scan it with their phone camera and your menu opens instantly in the browser — no app to install.

Swap the menu without reprinting

A QR code menu is Dynamic: the printed code points to a permanent link you control. Switch between lunch, dinner, drinks and seasonal menus from your dashboard and the code stays the same.

No more sticky, out-of-date menus

Prices, sold-out items and new dishes update the moment you save them. Customers always see the current menu, so you stop apologising for last season's prices.

See which menus get scanned

Dynamic menu codes record scans over time, so you know which tables are busiest and whether the specials board is pulling traffic.

Branded to your restaurant

Set the foreground and background colours, drop your logo in the centre, and pick a module shape. Contrast checks make sure the code still scans under table lighting.

Print-ready for any surface

Download high-resolution PNG and true vector SVG files for table tents, counter stickers, menu cards, window signs and takeaway packaging.

Where a QR code menu works

Full-service restaurants

Replace printed menus with a scannable code on each table. Run lunch, dinner and specials from the same printed code.

Cafés and bakeries

Update the chalkboard-style daily menu in seconds. Customers scan once and see the current offering.

Bars and cocktail lounges

Keep a drinks menu behind one code. Add happy-hour pricing or rotate seasonal cocktails without reprinting the menu book.

Food trucks and pop-ups

Print one durable sticker for the service window. Change the menu each location or event without new print runs.

Hotels and room service

Place a code by the phone in every room. Update the breakfast, room-service and spa menus centrally — no reprint per season.

Catering and events

Hand a printed card to each guest. Swap the menu when courses change, and let dietary information live behind the same code.

Tips for printing a menu QR code

Print the code at least 2.5 cm wide on a table tent so phones lock on quickly in low light.
Leave clear space around the code equal to the width of one module — the preview flags a tight quiet zone.
Use a dark code on a light background; the contrast check warns you when a colour pair won't scan.
Keep the logo under 20% of the code area so error correction can still recover the data.
Laminate table tents — a glossy smudge on a matte code is the most common reason a menu stops scanning.
Test the printed proof with more than one phone model before a full print run across every table.
