A café menu system that opens with a scan.
A café menu system puts your hot drinks, cold drinks and pastries on one page a guest opens from their phone camera. Every drink carries its sizes and their prices, a short line about the bean or the flavour, and its calories — and changing any of them reaches the counter without a new price board.
Two QR codes and 15 items on the free plan — enough for a small café.
This list is shown in the Compact layout — no photos, one line per drink. Try all five on the digital menu page.
A café list is short, but it moves fast
A new lot of beans, a winter drink in and out again, oat milk at a surcharge. The board hanging behind the barista never keeps up with that rhythm. A digital menu keeps up from your phone.
Sizes with their own prices
Small, medium and large, each with its own price and one of them the default. The guest sees all three and decides before reaching the till.
Room to describe specialty
Write the origin, the roast level and the tasting notes into the drink's description. Guests read it instead of asking the barista mid-rush.
A seasonal category you hide in a tap
Put the winter drinks in their own category and hide it when the season ends. It comes back next year with the same prices and copy.
Pastries run out early
Mark the croissant sold out at 11am without pulling it from the list, and bring it back tomorrow with one switch.
Two layouts need no photos
Compact and Elegant render a clean list with no photography at all — right for a café without a professional shot of every drink.
The stamp card at the foot
The guest who just ordered their coffee is the best person to invite onto a "buy 5, get the 6th free" card.
The queue moves faster when the list is in the guest's hand
Most of the time lost at a café till isn't in the making. It goes on reading, asking, and hesitating in front of the board.
They read while queuing
The guest scans from where they stand and browses the whole list before their turn, instead of squinting at a board from six metres back.
Sizes and prices are already known
Each size has its price written down, so there is no "how much is the large?" and no surprise at payment.
They order ready
They reach the till knowing exactly what they want, and the barista spends the time making the drink rather than reciting the menu.

Questions café owners ask
How do I show drink sizes and their prices?
For each drink you add its sizes — small, medium, large — write a separate price against each, and pick one to show first. Once a drink has sizes, the guest sees the size prices instead of the base price. The free plan allows 3 sizes per drink; Pro has no limit.
My seasonal drinks change every month — what is the easiest way?
Create a category called "Seasonal" and use its visibility switch. When the season ends you hide the whole category in one tap rather than deleting the drinks — and bring it back next year with the same prices and descriptions. The announcement bar at the top of the menu is a good place for "the winter drink has landed".
Does a café menu need a photo for every drink?
No. Two of the five layouts work with no photography at all: Compact shows one line per drink and its price, and Elegant renders the list like a printed card with a dotted leader running to the price. If you do shoot your iced drinks well, the Visual or Grid layout makes them the hero instead.
My café is small — how many QR codes do I need?
Two is enough for most small cafés, and two is what the free plan gives you: one at the till or on a stand, and one on the shopfront sign or in your Instagram bio. Because each code carries its own scan counter, a fortnight later you will know which of the two earns its place.
Can I link the menu to a stamp card?
Yes. If you run a Niqati stamp card — "buy 5, get the 6th free", say — you link it to the menu from the Settings tab. An invitation then appears at the foot of the list, and the card lands in the guest's Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.
