Launch a restaurant QR menu guests can actually use
Quick answer
Build the menu first, generate the QR code, test it on real phones, then place it where guests have enough light and time to scan. Wobistro includes menu management and a QR Code Builder for this workflow.
Step-by-step workflow
- Create categories and add current items, prices, photos, modifiers, and allergen notes.
- Generate the menu QR code and keep enough contrast and quiet space around it.
- Scan from iPhone and Android devices on mobile data, not only staff Wi-Fi.
- Print a small batch, verify the live destination again, then place codes at entrances and tables.
Pre-launch checks
- The code opens the intended restaurant menu without an app.
- Sold-out items and price changes appear after publishing.
- A readable printed menu remains available as an accessibility fallback.
Frequently asked questions
Does a QR menu require an app?
No. A correctly configured Wobistro menu opens in the guest browser.
Can the QR code stay the same after menu edits?
Yes when it points to the stable restaurant menu URL; edit the menu rather than the printed destination.
What makes a QR code hard to scan?
Low contrast, glossy glare, tiny print, damage, poor lighting, or insufficient empty space around the code.
