What Are Digital Menu Boards

Digital menu boards are electronic displays that show restaurant menus using digital signage software instead of printed signs. They allow restaurants to update menu items, prices, and promotions in real time from a cloud-based system. 

These displays can rotate content by time of day, such as breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus, and support images, videos, and nutritional information. Digital menu boards are commonly used in restaurants, cafes, bars, and quick-serve locations to keep menus accurate, visually appealing, and easy to manage across one or multiple screens.

"I use the Rise program to post the lunch menus. You guys have a good one that’s colorful and fun—these are middle schoolers, so that kind of stuff really catches their eye. They’ve made a lot of comments about it. You’ll see them just standing there, watching the TV.”

Benefits of Digital Menu Boards for Restaurants

Digital menu boards help restaurants operate more efficiently while improving the customer experience. Menus can be updated instantly without reprinting, which saves time and reduces ongoing print costs. Scheduling features allow restaurants to automatically switch menus by meal period, helping customers order faster and with less confusion.

High definition visuals and dynamic content increase customer engagement and help highlight promotions, new items, and high-margin products. Restaurants can also reduce perceived wait times by displaying engaging content such as videos, trivia, or social feeds while customers wait to order.

From an operations perspective, digital menu boards streamline menu management across single or multiple locations, support consistent branding, and make it easier to keep restaurant menus accurate and up to date. The result is improved efficiency, stronger brand image, and increased sales potential.
