Design and copy guidance
Keep the QR code clear from counter clutter and large enough to scan while standing in line. Use simple contrast and avoid glossy placement where lights reflect into the QR code. Use menu-first language such as Scan for the current menu, photos, and specials. The design should say QR, menu, placement, scan, review, and analytics in the operating plan even when the printed copy stays short.
Print the entry point, keep the menu live
The counter QR menu card should point to a live QR menu, not a fixed file that becomes outdated. Keep the printed code stable, then update menu items, prices, photos, and availability behind the same destination.
