How to add QR code ordering to my restaurant
Adding QR code ordering to your restaurant takes about ten minutes with Scanmyfood. You build a digital menu, generate a QR code for every table, print it, and guests scan to order straight from their phone while your kitchen sees each ticket in real time.
Six steps from printed menu to scan-to-order
- 1
Create your restaurant account
Sign up with your restaurant name and email. You get an admin dashboard with a 30-day free trial — no card, no installation.
- 2
Build your digital menu
Add food and beverage categories, then items with price, description and photo. Mark items unavailable any time and the customer menu updates instantly.
- 3
Generate a QR code for each table
This is how to create a QR code for a restaurant menu without any external generator: open Tables & QR, add a table, and Scanmyfood produces a unique, printable QR code linked to that table.
- 4
Print and place the QR codes
Print the codes on standees, stickers or the bill folder. Guests scan with the phone camera — no app download and no login.
- 5
Guests scan to order
The menu opens in the browser with your logo and brand colour. Guests add items, leave notes, call a waiter or request the bill from their phone.
- 6
Kitchen and billing take over
Orders appear on your kitchen screen within a second with the table number. Staff move them through Preparing and Served, then close the bill with cash or UPI.
What changes in daily service
Order-taking stops depending on staff availability, item notes stop getting lost, and every bill is logged for analytics. See the full QR ordering feature list, check QR menu software pricing, or read QR menu vs printed menu.
