Why QR only menus exclude customers

2026-08-12 · English · Dublin, Ireland

A QR code is not an accessible menu A QR-only menu assumes a customer has a charged smartphone, mobile data, a compatible device, enough vision to scan the code, and confidence navigating an unfamiliar website. That is a lot of assumptions for a bowl of soup....
