Customers view your menu after scanning the code and place the order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">When they became all the rage during the pandemic, restauranteurs could attest to the enormous advantages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">With the arrival of the new normality, hospitality businesses have taken measures to guarantee the safety and protection of their customers. They also refined staff hiring by adjusting\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.7shifts.com\/blog\/restaurant-job-interview-questions\/\">interview questions for restaurants<\/a>\u00a0to find suitable personnel. In this quest, they came across\u00a0<strong>QR codes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">The traditional, printed restaurant menu gave way to a digital menu via a <strong>QR code<\/strong>, which was also printed and placed on tables so customers could scan it and access it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Almost <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qsrmagazine.com\/content\/7-facts-know-about-restaurant-qr-codes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">87% of respondents<\/a> in the Hospitality State of the Industry Report say that the adoption of new technology \u2014including QR code ordering\u2014 played a key role in the survival of their business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-1-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-1-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-1.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">A <strong>menu<\/strong> <strong>QR code <\/strong>can be printed on a table, menu board, or another piece of signage in a restaurant.

Going out for dinner became a worry, but <strong>QR codes<\/strong> were a smart walkaround that prevented customers to come in contact with possibly-infected surfaces and objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">The <strong>contactless menu<\/strong> became the norm and is here to stay, as restauranteurs could support customers by giving them a menu QR code they could scan while minimizing the risk of infection.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"costsavings\">Cost-savings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Before the digital menus or the <strong>menu<\/strong> <strong>QR code<\/strong>, printed menus required businesses to design and print the menu and several copies so they could support the service process. This, of course, comes at a cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Now, a contactless menu in PDF format allows business owners to design an online menu that does not require any printing. It&#8217;s just as easy as embedding the PDF file in a QR code and changing it without the need to print costly material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Further, you can also embed a link to your website containing the menu via a <strong>URL QR code<\/strong>. If your menu is on a social media platform, you can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/social-media-qr-code-share-all-your-profiles-in-one-scan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">social media QR code<\/a> to allow customers to find you in this space, access the menu, and also start following you.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"environment-and-food-waste\">Environment and food waste<\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/how-to-create-a-qr-code-for-a-menu-2-1024x684.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/how-to-create-a-qr-code-for-a-menu-2-1024x684.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/how-to-create-a-qr-code-for-a-menu-2-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/how-to-create-a-qr-code-for-a-menu-2-768x513.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/how-to-create-a-qr-code-for-a-menu-2.jpeg 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Given their digital nature, the <strong>QR code menu<\/strong> will spare your business kilos of waste whenever they get damaged or when you adjust your menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Further, since QR code menus can be updated or upgraded, you can add special dishes last minute to sell more perishable products and reduce food waste.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"streamlined-ordering-process\">Streamlined ordering process<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Before the <strong>QR code menu<\/strong>, it was common for customers to wait for the staff to come around their table with the printed menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">With the <strong>QR code menu<\/strong>, it&#8217;s just as easy as customers pulling out their smartphones, scanning the code, accessing the menu on PDF, landing page, or social media, and deciding on their order straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">This way, the staff only needs to serve your clientele when they have already made up their minds and know what to order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">If your QR code links to a food ordering platform, you can turn tables faster as customers will access the menu and order online on the spot.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"versatility\">Versatility<\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/qr.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/menu-qr-code-2.jpg 1250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">A <strong>QR code menu <\/strong>gives you the chance to use several <strong>QR codes<\/strong> for specific times during the day, depending on the type of food you&#8217;re serving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">This is pretty convenient, as you can use one code for the breakfast menu, one for lunchtime, and another for dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Also, you can offer a menu in multiple languages without printing extra materials.

You can print a small card with the QR code on it and place it on each table for customers to scan.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color\" id=\"on-physical-menus\">On physical menus<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">If you still have physical menus, you can print the QR code on the menu itself. This way, customers can scan the code to view the menu on their phones without touching a shared physical menu.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color\" id=\"near-the-entrance\">Near the entrance<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">You can also place a sign with the QR code near the entrance of your restaurant. This way, customers can scan the code before they are even seated, giving them time to look over the menu and decide what they want to order.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color\" id=\"on-posters-or-flyers\">On posters or flyers<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">You can create posters or flyers with the QR code and place them around your restaurant or in the waiting area.
