QR code for a restaurant menu: change the menu without reprinting

Restaurant menu QR code with QR Studio

Table cards are printed once and the menu changes all the time. This page opens on a link code, so you can make the card now and re-aim it at a new menu page later.

  1. Paste the address of your online menu page or PDF.
  2. Press "Make this code editable and trackable" so you can change the destination later.
  3. Download the SVG for the printer, or a 2048 px PNG.
  4. Print one card, test it from the table distance, then print the rest.

What to know

A menu changes with the season, the prices and the day. A normal QR code has the address baked in, so a new menu page means new cards. A trackable code points at a short link you control: replace the destination with the new menu address and every printed card follows.

Keep the menu page light and mobile friendly; guests scan with one hand in a dim room. A PDF works, but a simple web page loads faster and is easier to read. Test the card with an iPhone and an Android phone at the real table distance before printing the set; 2.5 to 3 cm wide is the practical minimum for table cards.

The scan counter shows how many guests use the cards each day, which tells you whether they are worth reprinting in a better place. Scans are counted by day and device only; no personal data about guests is collected.

Questions

How do I make a QR code for my restaurant menu?

Put your menu online (a web page or a PDF), paste its address above, and make a trackable code. Print the card, and change the destination whenever the menu changes.

Can I change the menu without printing new QR codes?

Yes, with a trackable code. Edit the destination and the printed codes open the new menu. A normal code cannot be changed after printing.

What size should a menu QR code be?

At least 2.5 cm wide on a table card, larger on posters. Leave the white border around the code and test it from the distance a guest scans from.

Will the code stop working if I stop paying?

No. A trackable code keeps redirecting; only editing, extra codes and long scan history pause.
