How QR Codes Work in Allergen Information

    Before implementing QR codes, ensure that your menu allergen information for each dish is up to date and accurate. Clearly identify common allergens present, potential cross-contamination risks, and any variations in recipes. Allergy Menu allows you to store Photos and Documentation of all the allergens sources, to ensure you have a comprehensive record.

  2. Create QR Codes

    Our system automatically generates you a QR code in both digital and image format. Allowing you to provide a high resolution QR code to your printers if required. The Code links directly to a full menu, with details on each dish with live allergen information displayed

  3. Placement on Menus

    Strategically place the QR codes on your physical menus or in prominent locations within your restaurant. Ensure they are easily scannable with a smartphone. We provide printable templates with Allergy Menu to assist with generating front of house information, such as window stickers.
