02.A / Overview

A digital menu earns its place by being faster than handing someone a card. That means: render on a cold phone in under a second, never wait for a network round-trip on a category tap, and stay legible in midday sun under a parasol.

We designed the menu as a single scroll with sticky category chips, generous photography, and allergen pills that sit on the item rather than buried in a legend. Bilingual rows toggle without a reload — the same item in Turkish and English, never two versions out of sync.

Behind the screen, the owner edits prices and stock from a phone in the kitchen. Each table gets its own printed QR with a table ID baked in — useful later if the brief grows into ordering.

Concept build — the studio is young; this case study shows the craft we'd bring to a real engagement.

A QR per table. The URL knows where the guest is sitting.
02.C / Approach

A menu that feels like the café.

01Photography first

One real photo beats three stylised crops. Tight grid, generous spacing, no carousels.

02Bilingual in a row

Turkish above, English below, same line height. Neither language is a second-class citizen.

03Owner-editable

A staff phone is the CMS. Price up, item out of stock, new daily special — under a minute.

02.D / What it ships with

Honest features, no SaaS upsell.

Load< 0.8s

Static menu, edge-cached. First tap is the only one that touches a network.

TablesQR / table

Printable QR sheet per table. The URL knows where the guest is sitting.

AllergensOn the item

Gluten, dairy, nuts, shellfish — pills on the item, not a buried legend.
