For restaurants & cafés

Menus that are always current — online and on every table.

Save your menu PDFs in a Dropbox or OneDrive folder. Your website, your Google profile link and the QR codes on your tables always open the latest version — change a price, replace the file, done.

FolderBloom shows a Dropbox or OneDrive folder on your website and keeps it up to date. Your files stay in your own storage.

How you'd use it

Three ways restaurants & cafés use FolderBloom

01

One menu link everywhere

Add a “View our menu” button to your site, Google profile and social bios. It always serves the newest PDF, so there's never an old menu floating around.

On your websiteSingle-file buttons
  • A separate “Download the menu” button per menu
  • View in the browser or download
  • Replace the PDF — every link updates
02

Table QR codes that never go stale

Print a QR code for each menu once. When prices or dishes change, replace the file — the codes already on your tables keep working.

Why it fits

What makes it work for you

QR codes that last

Codes point to a permanent link, so reprinting is only needed when your design changes — never your menu.

Menus from a spreadsheet

Keep dishes and prices in Excel and get a beautifully formatted web menu that search engines can read — included with every plan. Starting from a PDF or a photo of your menu? The menu converter reads it into the spreadsheet for you.

Seasonal menus on autopilot

Set a start and end date and the right menu shows up on its own.

Found by search engines

Menus carry schema.org menu data, and each menu has its own page — with your logo and name — for your Google Business Profile.

Recipes guests can cook at home

Share signature recipes from a spreadsheet — servings that adjust the amounts, step photos and a how-to video.

Recommended package

Files

Spreadsheet menus, QR codes and scheduling are all included with Files. Add Gallery Basic for dish photos.

Files covers file lists, document previews, spreadsheet tables, menus, passwords and private client folders. Photo galleries, slideshows and before & after sliders need a gallery package; visitors downloading full-size photos needs Plus or Pro.

Compare all packages

Good to know

Keep allergen and nutrition information in the same folder as the menu so guests always see matching versions — and check it whenever the menu changes.

QR codes only work for files that aren't password-protected, so keep menus in a public folder.

Questions

FolderBloom for restaurants & cafés: FAQ

Do I need to reprint QR codes when the menu changes?

No. Each QR code points to a permanent link; replacing the PDF in your folder updates what guests see.

Can guests view the menu without downloading it?

Yes — PDFs open right in the phone's browser, with a download option if they want to keep it.

Can the menu be a real web page instead of a PDF?

Yes — on any plan, keep your menu in a spreadsheet (Category, Item, Price, Description) and FolderBloom formats it on your site, one sheet per menu. It also gives you a search-friendly menu page for your Google Business Profile, and the WordPress plugin puts the menu right into your page.

Can staff update the menu from their phones?

Yes — anyone with access to the shared Dropbox or OneDrive folder can replace a menu or add photos.
