Getting Started with Menuy: A Step-by-Step Guide

Welcome to Menuy

Setting up your digital menu takes less than 30 minutes. This guide walks you through every step.

Step 1: Create Your Account

1. Go to menuy.app/register
2. Sign up with email or Google
3. Enter your restaurant name and select your business type

You'll start on the Free plan which includes 1 menu, 25 items, and 2 QR codes — perfect for testing.

Step 2: Set Up Your Menu

Create Categories

Organize your menu into logical sections:

• Appetizers
• Main Courses
• Desserts
• Drinks

Tip: You can reorder categories with drag-and-drop later.

Add Items

For each item, you can add:

• Name and description
• Price (with optional sale/crossed-out price)
• Photos (up to 3 per item on Starter, 10 on Pro)
• Variants (sizes, options)
• Modifiers (add-ons, customizations)
• Tags (vegetarian, spicy, gluten-free, etc.)

Organize with Categories

Items can belong to multiple categories. Create a "Chef's Picks" category and add your best items there without duplicating anything.
