What you want is for your customers to clearly visualise what to order.

Here are some helpful tips:

  1. Include a hi-res image of all the main dishes/items available on the menu.
    – The optimum quality of your images should be 600 x 600 px or larger.
    The item in the image should be placed in the centre while leaving some white space at the edges of your image.

  2. Name your menu items clearly. This will also make it easier for customers to search for an item using the search bar.

  3. Describe the flavour profile and/or ingredients found in the dishes.

Side note: The size of your logo is also recommended to be at least 310 x 310 px for optimum quality. 

With a visually pleasing and descriptive menu, your customers are more likely to order more and it manages their expectations of what they will be having.

2. Include a featured items category at the top of your menu.

Segmenting your best-selling items or items you want to specifically feature will help to encourage and entice your customers to order those items and optimise your online menu.

How will this benefit you?

  • You’re cutting short on your customer’s decision-making process when ordering. Thus, allowing quicker turnover time in the long run. 
  • You’re able to promote items on your menu that you want to highlight. This is particularly great if you have an ongoing promotion, new items or want to push out items with higher margins to drive more sales.

3. Include add-ons to your main menu items.

So, why not make it easier for your customers to add-on to their meals while ordering?

Plus, if you were to also include additional toppings and side dishes as add-ons, your customers will most likely order them while increasing their overall order value!

4. Always keep your menu updated.
