QR code for restaurant menus: print size and setup checklist

QR code for restaurant menus: print size and setup checklist

A restaurant menu QR code has to work in poor lighting, from awkward angles, and on surfaces that get handled all day. The design can look simple, but the printing details matter.

Use a stable menu link

Point the QR code to a menu URL that will stay online. If you update the menu often, use a stable page URL and change the content on that page instead of replacing the QR code every time.

Keep the code easy to scan

  • Use dark code modules on a light background.
  • Leave a clear margin around the code.
  • Print large enough for table distance.
  • Test with more than one phone before printing many copies.

Create the code

Open the QR Code Generator, paste the menu link, download the QR code, and print one test copy. Scan it from the same distance a customer will use.

Where to place it

Good places include table tents, counter signs, takeaway packaging, receipts, and front-window posters. Avoid folds, glossy glare, and busy backgrounds behind the code.
