One aspect to take into account is that your restaurant needs to have a strong identity which differs from the competition through small details. A menu design with personality, for instance, would add value to your business and would enable showing your brand features.

With a simple click, you can customize everything you want, such as the background image, colors, typography, elements, and logo. You can also create a restaurant menu with a QR code through customizable templates to do so.

Also, each user has an internal memory, which keeps their old designs and elements loaded onto the editor. When they desire to modify one of these templates, they only have to look for it and make small adjustments in less than a minute. It is useful when, for instance, you need to create different daily menus and special offers. 

Tips to create a Restaurant Menu

• Consider human scan patterns. You have to bear in mind the pattern when people read: from left to right and from top to bottom. Therefore, locate the most crucial part of the menu in the upper left corner. It is helpful if you have a special meal you want to highlight.
• Logically divide. When making the menu divisions (starters, main courses, desserts, drinks, etc.), follow the logic and think about how you would like to find it. Make all the divisions you consider necessary to make the read easier for the client. 
• Consider using text boxes. Linked to the previous point, the simpler and tidier you offer your clients information, the easier it will be for them to make decisions and enhance their experience. Framing each section in text boxes makes the information visually distributed and simple to follow.
• Use photos sparingly. Don't overwhelm your customers with photos, which are more typical in fast-food restaurants. If you want your business to convey a professional image, avoid using such pictures, or limit them to one or two, always taken by a professional.
• Don't emphasize the meals' prices. Although it's vital to write product prices, we don't want customers to focus on them. Be careful and try to include these prices in a disguised way, without overshadowing the delicious meals you offer.
• Typography. You must use a legible typeface matching the type of restaurant you have. Don't saturate your designs with different typographies. Two of them are enough, one to highlight the titles, and the other for the meals and prices.
• Create specific menus: finally, we recommend designing restaurant menus for every occasion, type of order, and type of client. For instance, create drink menus, dessert menus, menus for kids, menus for Christmas and New Year's Eve, birthday party menus or pizza menus, among many others.

As observed, there are small items to keep in mind when creating an aesthetic and functional menu, so we invite you to try the editor without worrying about the design aspects.

Having the digital version of your menu is useful since customers can access it from their mobile phones, which enables making a fast reservation or ordering online. It is also more hygienic for the restaurant.
