Ditching paper menus for QR codes? You need a generator that produces a menu customers actually enjoy scrolling — not a PDF pinch-and-zoom nightmare. Here's what to look for.
Paper menus have obvious issues: dirty, out of date, expensive to reprint when prices change. But PDF QR menus are almost as bad: customers pinch-and-zoom, struggle to find the vegetarian section, can't switch language.
A mobile-native QR menu (built as a website, not a PDF) delivers:
Drag-and-drop sections (starters, mains, desserts, drinks). Each dish: name, description, price, photo, allergens (14 EU standard), dietary tags (vegan, gluten-free, spicy). Bulk import via CSV or Google Business menu.
Your primary color (auto-detected from your GBP), logo, fonts (25 Google Fonts curated for restaurants). Preview in real-time on mobile.
Write the menu in your language, Voxtya auto-translates into 11 others via GPT-4o (validated by a human translator for the first pass, then you approve). Customer's phone language triggers the display.
Every menu generates: tabletop sign (A6), bill folder sticker (A7), roll-up banner (A2), take-out bag stamp (round 5cm), receipt footer (thermal-printer-safe), front door sticker (A5). All brand-customized.
