Keep your menu fresh and up-to-date
Have new specials or seasonal dishes? No need to start from scratch. With our customizable layouts, it’s easy to replace photos and edit text to keep your menu’s selection fresh and up to date.
After updating your menu (and maybe adjusting those prices a bit), getting your restaurant menu ready to print is a snap. Once your menu’s done, click the Download button and save your design as a print-ready PDF file to get it ready to send to a print professional.
All the elements you need to spice up your menu
There’s much more to making a dazzling menu than low-angled shots of your dishes and tasty descriptions. Give your menu some design panache with our super-sized library of over 1 million stock images and graphics. Plenty of symbols, icons, textures, and design elements are available for free, and premium images are offered at a very competitive price.
Incorporating rack cards(opens in a new tab or window) into your restaurant's branding strategy can enhance the visibility of your menu offerings and promotions. Use Canva's customizable rack card templates or easily design your own in a few clicks!

FAQ
A good restaurant menu:
- Is easy to read
- Versatile for different seasons
- Divided into logical sections
- Sparse on photos but tasteful with illustration
- Uses on-brand typography and doesn’t emphasize currency in the prices
- Makes your food sound more enticing with creative names and tasty descriptions.
Different colors can motivate different behaviors. Orange stimulates the appetite while brown signals nature and earthiness. Green makes customers think of fresh, local ingredients; yellow puts people in a good mood and red grabs people’s attention. You can experiment with color schemes and see what works best.
