How to make a QR code for a restaurant menu
A menu QR code opens your menu in the customer's browser — no app, no paper to reprint when prices change. The code points to a web page or PDF you host.
Set it up
- Put your menu online — a page on your website or a hosted PDF — and copy its link.
- In Scan QR Code Master, open My Codes and create a New Code with the Type set to URL.
- Paste the menu link and generate the code.
- Print it for tables, the door, or the counter — large and high-contrast so it scans easily.
Keep it working long-term
If your menu page URL stays the same, a free static code works forever even when the menu content changes. If you expect the link itself to change, use a dynamic-code service so you can repoint the code without reprinting. See our static vs dynamic guide.
FAQ
- Do customers need an app to scan a menu QR code?
- No. Any modern phone camera opens the menu link when it scans the code. You only need a tool to create the code once.
