Digital Menu with a QR Code: How to Set One Up for Your Restaurant in Morocco

What is a QR-code digital menu?

It is an online version of your menu, reached from a web address. The QR code is just a shortcut to that address: the customer points their phone camera at the code and the menu appears. Because the QR code points to a page rather than a file, you can change prices and dishes without ever reprinting the code.

The 5 steps to set it up

1. Gather your menu: categories, dish names, prices in dirhams, short descriptions and, if possible, good photos.
2. Create your menu page: either by entering your dishes in a dedicated tool or by uploading your existing PDF menu.
3. Choose your restaurant's web address, short and easy to remember (for example yourcafe.mida.ma).
4. Generate the QR code that points to that address and download it in high resolution.
5. Print it and place it where customers will see it: tables, counter, window.

What a good digital menu includes

• Clear prices in MAD, up to date and readable without zooming.
• Logical categories (starters, mains, desserts, drinks) so people find things fast.
• Photos of your signature dishes: they make people want to order.
• Several languages: French, Arabic and English suit local customers and tourists alike.
• Your opening hours, your address and a WhatsApp button for bookings or questions.

Common mistakes to avoid

• A QR code that is too small or badly printed: allow at least 3 cm per side and strong contrast.
• A QR code that points to a file: any change means reprinting everything.
• A PDF made for print that is unreadable on a small screen: prefer a mobile-friendly display.
• A menu that is never updated: a sold-out dish or an old price costs you customers' trust.

Where to place the QR code

On every table (a stand or a placemat), at the entrance, on the counter and in the window so passers-by can read the menu before coming in. Keep a few paper menus too, for customers who prefer that format.
