Casual dining FAQs

Can the kitchen update tonight's specials directly?

Yes. Grant kitchen managers an "editor" role limited to the specials section. They can swap tonight's catch, soup, or dessert in seconds from a phone or tablet without touching the main menu.

How do I run a happy hour menu only between certain hours?

Use the daypart scheduler to display the happy hour board from 3pm-6pm Monday-Friday. MenuPi auto-switches to the standard bar menu outside those windows.

Can I replace paper table tents with screens?

Yes. MenuPi supports small-format table-side displays (7-13 inch). Show dessert menus, drink specials, loyalty signups, or scannable QR codes. Update from HQ — no more reprinting.
