QR Codes for Restaurants: Menus, Reviews, Wi-Fi and Orders
Practical ways restaurants use QR codes: digital menus, Google reviews, Wi-Fi, ordering and WhatsApp. Sizes, placement and design tips.
Restaurants use QR codes for much more than menus. Here are the uses that pay off, and how to set them up so guests actually scan.
1. Digital menu
Link a mobile-friendly menu page on your website. When prices change, edit the page; your printed codes keep working. Table tents need a code about 3–5 cm wide.
2. Google reviews
Put a review QR code on receipts and the check folder. Link directly to your Google review form so guests land on the stars, not your profile.
3. Guest Wi-Fi
A Wi-Fi QR code on each table saves staff time. Use a guest network.
4. Ordering and payment
Link your online ordering system for takeaway windows and delivery bags.
5. WhatsApp reservations
A WhatsApp QR code with "I'd like to book a table" pre-filled makes reservations one tap.
Design tips
- Add your logo and brand colors so the code looks official, which also helps guests trust it.
- Always print a short call to action: "Scan for menu", "Rate us".
- Use matte table tents; glossy plastic reflects overhead lights.
