Folded Menus
Folded Menus are
a variant of folded leaflets with much more information included in the form of
lists. They are the best way to advertise the food in a restaurant this could
be in the form of a handout that can be delivered door to door, or an in-house
menu
The
two more common sizes are A4 and A3, like folded leaflets there is a lot of
room for customization regarding the location of the fold or a custom size of
menu. When choosing from the menus consider the size in a number of ways, a smaller
menu would be a better choice if you intend to be taking them door to door. On
the other hand, a larger menu would be more practical if you intend to keep
them in-house.
Content
When
it comes to what you want to include in your menu consider listing special
offers, for example a takeaway may have a burger section and a pizza section
separately. You could advertise your special offers this would be most
effective on the front page of your menu, as your customers would see it first.
Speaking of special offers the menu can also have a perforation coupon for
discounted meals.
discounted meals.
In a restaurant booking tables for special
events is a necessity so if there are any special events coming up like
Christmas or Easter it would be important to advertise your meal/table bookings
where applicable. A restaurant may also deem it necessary having a wine list in
the same menu. The most important thing to remember about menus is that you
have a lot of space to include whatever is important to your restaurant. For
example most of your products can be included in list but your best selling
dishes be separate side notes that the customer would see first, this simple separation
would help you sell the products that you want to sell.
Why go folded?
The fold allows
the menu to be broken down into sections in a much clearer way allowing products
that should be separate such as types of food to have a clear distinction. Like
with folded leaflets the fold also opens up the options in terms of design
allowing it to be broken up into sections, creating a choice for it to either
open up into a large design or to remain as separate sections or “pages”. Below
are a few examples of types of designs and sizes.
The fold can also be customized in order
for the design to look the best it can and keep your food looking as appetizing
as possible. If you want your menu to stand out amongst the others, custom sizes
are also an option, creating something unique to advertise your business. The
menu isn’t limited to a single fold if your restaurant has a large number of
sections then perhaps a Z fold would be a better option to split up the large amount of choices.
