Opening a new restaurant or upgrading and revamping an existing restaurant is an exciting time. It gives you a chance to make everything the way you want it, including changing from old styles of menus to new spiral hard covers.
Once you have made the choice to go with spiral hard covers, which are extremely durable and flexible in menu planning and display options, your next step is to actually put together the menu from cover to back. This takes logical, thoughtful consideration as well as a good understanding of marketing strategies.
The Cover
If you are choosing spiral hard covers then you need to develop a cover theme or design. You may want to choose original artwork and the name of your restaurant, and have a plastic cover to allow you to slide that cover in and out should you want to change.
This is a nice idea for a more casual dining location. You can use the front of the spiral hard covers to feature specials or for seasonal menus. These styles are easy to clean and typically feature a stitched border that adds a classic look and feel to the menu. Corner covers will also add to the durability factor as well as the overall look of the menu.
For a more elegant look, you can choose a leatherette, metallic or textured cover and have the name of your restaurant and your logo imprinted in any position on the front. This is a classic look and perfect for a more formal dining location.
The Menu
Within the spiral hard covers you have a wide range of options for organizing your menu. You can have a page for each selection such as appetizers, soups and salads, and then into lunch, dinner and desserts.
For a classic look to the menu have short but descriptive blurbs about the food. For more casual dining, it is common to feature photographs and select images. You can choose to add as many pages as you want, giving you the freedom to layout the menu in a creative style.
By using clear, non-glare plastic central page covers new additions menu in the spiral hard covers can be simply inserted into the appropriate location. This helps in reducing the costs of having to continually reprint the entire menu. The plastic also makes cleaning the menus very easy and helps to keep them looking new even with regular daily use.
