How to style the text in a creative way

🎨 Use colours that are consistent with your business identity

The style of your menu should be in harmony with the image and identity of your business. For this reason, it is important to choose the right colours for your printed and digital menus.

First of all, change the text colour and font from the Style screen: click on Text & colours > Font settings. Choose your corporate colours (or those you like best) and your menu will speak for itself!

🔴 Create a contrast between the elements of your menu 🔵

A good strategy for capturing the attention of your customers is to use contrasting fonts and colours for your text, headings, sections, icons and divider lines.

Be inspired by our sample menus - available on your Menutech account - and experiment with different styles through your menu's Style screen.

Here are some examples:

💲 Change the style of prices

Use a slightly smaller and lighter font to get yout customers' attention away from prices.

⭐ Add separators between courses and options

Decorate and organise your menu by adding graphic separators between courses or options.
