How to get it right
Design for the line at the counter
People read a wall menu from a few steps back while deciding, so the categories need to jump out and the prices need to line up in one column. Keep item descriptions short on the wall and save the long versions for the table menu. A 24x36 in portrait holds a full café menu; a large-format 36x48 holds a restaurant's.
Framed menus that change
Menus change - prices go up, items rotate with the season. Printing the menu as a poster in a standard frame means a price change is a new print slid into the same frame. Our semi-gloss paper does not fuse to frame glass, so the old print comes out cleanly every time.
Specials, and what belongs on the window
A specials poster by the counter can change weekly on the same frame. What goes on the window facing the street is a different job - that is where a window cling works better, because it can go on the glass itself and read from outside.
One board or several, by meal or by category
A shop that serves breakfast and lunch off different menus is usually better with two separate boards than one long list that tries to cover both - a customer scanning for a mid-morning coffee should not have to read past dinner items to find it. The same logic applies to combo or value menus: give the small set of headline deals their own board at 18x24 near the register, and keep the full a la carte list on a larger 24x36 or 36x48 board elsewhere, so the fast decision and the browsing decision do not compete for the same eyes at the same time. Swapping one small board is also cheaper than reprinting a single menu that covers everything.
Laying out a two-language menu
A menu in English and Spanish reads best as two columns side by side rather than one language stacked on top of the other, because a customer scanning for a dish in their language can ignore the other column entirely instead of reading past it. Keep both columns the same type size - making one language smaller to save room reads as an afterthought rather than an equal menu. At 24x36 there is enough width for two honest columns without shrinking either one below a comfortable reading size from a few feet back. Put prices in their own column between the two languages rather than repeating them twice, so a price change means editing one column instead of two.
Questions people ask about these
What size should a wall menu poster be?
24x36 holds a full café menu and fits standard ready-made frames; 36x48 suits a larger restaurant menu.
Can I just reprint when prices change?
Yes - that is the point of a poster menu. One print per design is a normal order, and the new one slides into the same frame.
Is the paper OK in a kitchen or near steam?
It is indoor paper and not waterproof - keep it behind frame glass and away from direct steam and splashes.
Can I put the menu on the front window?
For the glass itself, a window cling is the better product - it goes on the window and reads from the street.
How quickly can a new menu arrive?
When dishes or prices change, the new poster is two business days in production after you approve the proof, plus free US shipping in 3-5 business days. Order it the week before the new menu starts.
Can you print a menu in two languages?
Yes - we print whatever design you upload, including a two-column bilingual layout. Keep both languages the same type size so neither reads as secondary, and put prices in their own column so they don't need repeating.
What size works for a combo or value menu board near the register?
18x24 is the common choice for a short list of headline deals read up close at checkout. Save a larger 24x36 or 36x48 board for the full a la carte menu elsewhere on the wall.
Great quality!! My boyfriend loved it
it’s so glossy and way better quality than I expected ! fire !
It was a great commemoration of my daughter’s first concert. I put it in a frame and on the wall and she loves it! Thanks.
The only issue I had was during the proofing process, where the dimensions shown was really tiny. But when I received a smaller-than-ordered size, they were willing to send a replacement in the ordered size. After I offered to pay the additional shipping, I received a great poster! My wife LOVES it! Thank you!! 🥰
Seller was really sweet throughout the whole process. Received my poster and it was packaged incredibly well and made beautifully thank you!!!
Came out perfectly just as I had imagined!
