PlatterTap is a free digital menu for bars, pubs and cocktail bars. List cocktails, beer on tap, wine and spirits with several sizes and prices per drink — 0.3 l / 0.5 l, glass / bottle, 2 cl / 4 cl — pick the dark Noir template, and change prices or add tonight’s specials from your phone in seconds.
How do I show several sizes and prices for one drink?
Add variants to a drink. Each variant has its own label and price — 0.3 l and 0.5 l for a beer, 0.1 l and bottle for a wine, 2 cl and 4 cl for spirits. Guests see all sizes together on one line instead of the same drink listed three times.
How should a bar menu be organised?
Group drinks the way guests order them: signature cocktails first, then classics, beer on tap and in bottles, wine by colour, spirits by type, and alcohol-free drinks and snacks at the end. A short description — base spirit, taste, glass — helps people choose without flagging down staff.
- Signature cocktails deserve the top spot and a line of description each.
- Put alcohol-free drinks in their own clearly named section so they’re easy to find.
- Use the “new” and “popular” labels for this month’s additions and best sellers.
- Bar snacks and small plates can live in the same menu as a separate section.
Which menu template works best for a bar?
Noir: a dark background with gold accents, designed for cocktail and wine lists and comfortable to read in a dim room. Sizes line up neatly in columns. If your place is more sports bar than speakeasy, Street’s bold colours and big prices work well too.
Can I change prices for happy hour or events?
Yes. Edit a price or switch on a “Happy hour” section, save, and it’s live for everyone scanning your codes. Switch the section off again afterwards. Changes aren’t scheduled automatically — you make them yourself, from your phone, in a few taps.
Where should a bar put its QR codes?
On table cards, along the bar counter and next to the entrance, so people can browse while they wait for a seat or a drink. In low light, print the code large and with strong contrast so phones pick it up quickly.
