This plugin is very user friendly and comes with a full guided setup (walkthrough). When you activate the plugin, the setup will run and help you create your first restaurant menu!
The plugin comes with the ability to create separate restaurant menu sections. This allows you to divide a menu into multiple parts, making it more clear for your customers. You can even include a note for a section (e.g. “All items in this section come with salad or fries.”). Some examples of menu sections you can create are:
- Appetizers
- Main Course
- Dessert Menu
- Kid’s Menu
- Gluten Free Menu
- Weekly Specials
You can also accept orders through your website. Visitors can add menu items to their cart, put in their contact information, and then send the order to your restaurant. Restaurant owners receive a customizable order notification that contains all of the order information by default. Everything you need to set up your own restaurant menu ordering system!
In addition to this, you can also create completely separate and customizable restaurant menus. This feature can be used for several different purposes including individual menus for different meals, but also separate menus for drinks or snacks. It even works great if your restaurant is split up into different areas (e.g. a dining hall, a cafe, a bistro, etc.). Some examples of individual restaurant menus you can create are:
- Breakfast Menu
- Brunch Menu
- Lunch Menu
- Dinner Menu
- Wine Menu
- Drink Menu
- Snack Menu
- Cafe Menu
- Specialty Menu
- The possibilities are endless!

New restaurant menu ordering feature!
We’ve just added in a new feature that lets people create food orders directly from your menu. With this option enabled, an “Add to Cart” button will appear on each menu item, which will let you add as many items as you want to your cart and then place the order. This then gets created as an order in the plugin admin panel.
You can change the status of the order and your customers can view the status right there on your menu page, via an intuitive order progress bar.
There are options to customize the restaurant menu ordering experience by setting specific hours when the ordering should be available as well as advanced features that let you add customization options to each menu item (e.g. “Add bacon”, “Upgrade to onion rings”, etc.). There is also an array of styling options to modify the colors of the ordering elements, including the buttons, the cart and the progress bar.
Premium features include:
- Two new modern and responsive restaurant menu layouts
- Advanced restaurant menu ordering cart functionality: menu item add-ons, accept payments and show order progress
- Custom menu fields to add any extra info you want to your restaurant menu items
- Sorting and filtering to let your customers find the exact meal or item they’re looking for
