Quick answer
A practical setup guide for small table card visible from both seats in dine-in table service. Use it when guests need a clear scan path from a seated position before staff explain the menu and the team needs a live QR menu guests can scan reliably.
What this QR menu setup solves
Two-Top Table Card QR Menu Setup Guide is for dine-in table service. The specific placement is small table card visible from both seats. This matters because guests need a clear scan path from a seated position before staff explain the menu.
A good QR menu setup is not just a code on paper. It connects the physical scan moment to a current live menu, a clear guest prompt, and a measurable scan path. The main operational risk is that table materials point to stale menus, scan poorly, or do not match the live daypart menu.
Setup principle
Use this setup when the restaurant needs to print, place, scan-test, and review table-level QR materials. The QR code should open the same public menu staff trust during service, with current prices, sections, hours, photos, tags, descriptions, and availability.
