Menu Blocks
Want tables that look sharp and help guests order faster? Menu holders (also called table menu holders, tabletop menu stands or tent card holders) keep your menus upright, clean and within easy reach—so diners never have to flag a server or hunt for the QR code. The result: a tidier table, smoother service, and more eyes on the items you want to sell.
Why menu holders work
-
They make menus instantly accessible. Most diners still prefer a physical menu—recent surveys put it at ~80–90%—so keeping one visible at every seat removes friction and helps decisions happen sooner. Toast POSusfoods.com+1

They support the experience guests actually want. Even with new tech options, sit-down guests prefer traditional service over tech (64% vs. 36%), and only ~59% say they’d pull up a menu via QR at full-service restaurants—another reason to keep printed menus present and neat. NRA+1
-
They keep the table area tidy—and that matters. Clean, orderly surfaces positively influence emotions and satisfaction in restaurants; visible sanitation and neatness are proven drivers of perceived quality. Menu holders help you maintain that professional, uncluttered look all day. digitalcommons.fiu.eduVTechWorks

They protect your brand assets. Holders shield menus from spills and wear, so your typography, pricing and photography stay crisp between services and print cycles. inkohoreca-shop
