Frequently Asked Questions

What printing does a restaurant need most?

Menus are the most critical print item for restaurants, followed by table tents for daily specials, business cards for networking, and flyers for promotions and events.

How often should restaurants reprint menus?

Reprint menus every 6-12 months, or whenever your menu changes significantly. Laminated menus last longer but should be replaced when they show wear.

What is the best material for restaurant menus?

250gsm laminated card or synthetic paper is ideal. These materials are waterproof, wipe-clean, and withstand the rigours of daily restaurant use.

Can I print QR codes on menus for digital ordering?

Yes, printing QR codes on menus that link to your digital menu or online ordering system is increasingly popular and provides a hybrid print-digital experience.
