I don’t mind the qr menus sometimes but this drives me insane. Plus the prices will be right aligned, so you have to pan back and forth to figure out how much something costs. It’s just pure laziness.
Also, menus linked on the restaurant website where they’ve obviously uploaded the menu 3 years ago and never bothered to update it.
Just reading all of this triggered me lol Super true and annoying. Business owners like it cause they don’t have to worry about printing or cleaning menus anymore but the experience is awful
There is a place near me with great food, but their webpage menu is a scan of multiple pages of their menu set up in a slide show that will automatically rotate through the pages every ten seconds or so, and there is no way to stop it except to keep your thumb on the current page and kind of wiggle it. And if you want to scroll to a different page of the menu you can’t just flip through the pages, you have to wait at least 5 seconds before attempting to scroll but if you wait too long your scroll input and the auto scroll both happen and the menu has jumped past what you want to look at and by the way you can’t scroll backwards, only forwards so you have to make a full loop.
There are some fast food places that do that on the screens that replaced their “behind the counter” menu. Worse, sometimes they will switch between two menus and an ad. I need to look at what I’m ordering so I remember to order it right.
I hate QR code menus, just let me see the damn food options without squinting at my phone
I don’t mind the ones that take me to the official website and an optimized UX, but the ones that just download a shitty pdf to my phone are garbage
Yeah I hate this and usually the menu is just a huge PDF you have to zoom in on and move around.

This is a huge frustration, at least format it intuitively for phones since you’re actively encouraging their use.
