Digital Menu for Restaurants
BuonMenu is the digital menu for restaurants, hotels, pubs, coffee shops and eating establishments. It was created with passion in Italy and is used by restaurants all over the world.
Easy access, with QR code or link
You can easily open a menu using a QR code placed at the entrance or at the tables in the restaurant. Restaurants can download the QR code from BuonMenu or share a link (e.g. buonmenu.com/example). Alternatively, you can search online for the name of the restaurant.
Smartphone, tablet or computer
BuonMenu can be opened on any device. Everyone can open the menu directly on their own smartphone. However some restaurants also use it on tablets.
No app to install
You can open a menu instantly, without stress: you don't need to download or install any app and you can read the menu without any registration.
Online
The menu is online and always accessible: it can be read from any location, at any time. You can easily find the menu by searching online and you can also add a link to the menu from any website or app.
More information
Our digital menu allows restaurants to include more information for each product, without making the menu hard to read. Each item can be expanded and restaurants can include descriptions, highlight product qualities (like vegan, bio, home-made, gluten-free, etc.) and describe the ingredients.
High-quality Photos
Restaurants can include large photos for all products or some of them. Images let you understand the menu without effort and will make your mouth water.
Browse the menu easily
The menus are easy to read and well organized. Each restaurant may have multiple menus (e.g. à la carte, daily menu, etc.) and inside a menu you can easily jump between different sections.
Beautiful design
BuonMenu has a professional design, on any device. BuonMenu allows restaurants to create perfect menus, without the need for design skills.
Translations
BuonMenu allows you to see an automatic translation of the menu when you open it with a recent browser, like Chrome. Restaurants can also create menus translated manually.
Add links
You can add useful actions and links to your digital menu. For example: links to websites, social, events, maps, services, reservations, phone or WhatsApp, etc.
Send notifications
Send push notifications to all the customers that have visited your digital menu, even when they close your menu. If they accept to receive the notifications, you can promote your restaurant, a new dish, a discount, a special occasion, etc.
Clean and safe
With the outbreak of Coronavirus, digital menus become a safer alternative to paper menus, since you avoid that multiple people touches the same thing during the meal. A digital menu is always new and sprkling and restaurants don't need to clean or replace it repeatedly.
Green
A digital menu removes paper from the restaurant workflow, saving the trees.
Social media and search
Any menu can be shared using a link with the restaurant name (e.g. buonmenu.com/restaurantname). Restaurants can make it easy to find their menu by adding the link to their social profiles (like Facebook or Instagram) or connecting the menu to Google My Business and Google Maps.
Simple and always updated
Restaurants can create and update their digital menu directly, at any time, cutting the cost and offering a better menu, that is always updated and that can be improved over time. The menu is dynamic and can also include daily menus or new products, without an additional piece of paper.
