QR menu for restaurants: turn your paper menu into a scan-to-view menu

Create a QR menu for your restaurant, café or shop. Hand-built for free, or import a photo or PDF with Pro.

A QR menu is a menu that opens on a phone when scanned. TaoMenu lets you build one by hand for free; Pro can create it quickly from a photo or PDF of your paper menu.

Building a QR menu in a few steps

  1. Build the menu: enter items by hand (free), or photograph a paper menu and let AI draft it (Pro).
  2. Create the QR codes: a table code per table, or one shared pickup code for takeaway shops.
  3. Print or share: print the A4 sheet for tables, or share a link via Zalo, Facebook Messenger.
  4. Guests scan and order right in the browser — no app install.

What it looks like

The digital menu opens as soon as guests scan — with photos, descriptions and prices.

Each table gets a fixed QR code: print once, use for months; renaming a table does not change the code.

One QR code per table — print the A4 sheet, stick it on the table and it works.

Who it is for

  • Shops that reprint paper menus every time prices or items change.
  • Shops that want guests to browse photos and descriptions without asking staff.
  • Shops serving foreign guests — QR menus display in the guest's chosen language, see multi-language menus.

Things to know

  • A QR menu replaces the paper menu; it is not a marketing site or delivery ordering service.
  • AI drafts (from photos/PDFs) always need your review before publishing; TaoMenu never publishes automatically.
  • Free is limited to 1 language; Pro supports up to 5 languages on the same menu.

Free or Pro

Hand-built menus are free. Upgrade to Pro for photo-based menu import, premium QR templates and more languages. See the pricing page.

Frequently asked questions

  • Do guests need an app to open the QR menu?

    No. It opens in the browser instantly — nothing to install.

  • Can I update the menu myself?

    Yes. Edit items, prices and availability at any time from your phone; changes go live when you publish.

  • How do I put the QR code on tables?

    Print the A4 table-code sheet, or share the link via chat apps for counter pickup.
