Frequently asked questions
What’s a digital menu board?

A digital menu board is an electronic display of your menu on one or across multiple screens that replaces traditional printed menus and menu boards. Digital menus are better at capturing customers attention with video, graphics, and animations. Digital menu boards are typically created by mounting LCD or LED screens to the wall. These screens are controlled with digital menu board software to display your menu items, promotions, branding, and engage & entertain customers in your restaurant while they wait.

How does a digital menu board work?

Digital menu boards work by combining hardware, software, and content together into one working system. The hardware components of digital signage are media players and displays. Media players turn your screen “smart” so it can connect & communicate with your digital signage software. Once connected, your menu is then deployed to your screen from your content management system that uses your internet, Wi-Fi, or wired connection.

What are the benefits of digital menus?

Updating your restaurant’s paper menus or mounted static menu boards can cost you a lot. Digital menu boards are more cost-effective as they let you create and update your menus much more efficiently.

  • Easily update content– With digital menu board software, you can quickly change anything on your menu from prices to media, to adding or removing items altogether. If you have more than one menu display or restaurants at multiple locations, you can update your menus across all of them simultaneously.
  • Highlight promotions & offers – Digital menu boards let you play with layout and timing to highlight deals or offers and increase sales of high-margin items. High quality graphics, dynamic content & crisp menu design improve customer’s experience and help you sell more.
  • Reduce perceived wait time – Beyond menus, you can engage your customers with news, sports, polls, or live feeds. Digital signage for restaurants, can be connected to all kinds of apps & content that drives your customers to action and makes them feel like they haven’t been waiting for long.
  • Long term savings – Printed menus require re-printing, shipping, installation, and disposal each time you need to update them. While there may be a higher up-front cost for digital menu boards, in the long term you’re saving yourself money and investing in something that can seriously drive revenue for your business.
  • Maintain brand consistency – Digital menu board software is great for franchises because it ensures all locations are up to date and present a consistent, high-quality appearance across their boards.
