# pikMenu — Complete Reference > pikMenu is a digital QR menu for hospitality venues that keep human service — breakfast places, bistros, brunch spots and coffee shops. Guests scan a QR code and see the menu in the venue's own colours, with photos and automatic translations. Ordering and payments through an app are deliberately not the core of the product. ## What is pikMenu pikMenu is a QR menu platform that replaces paper menus with a stunning visual digital menu. Guests scan a QR code on the table with their phone camera — no app download needed. They instantly see the menu with food photos, prices, allergens, and descriptions. pikMenu also works as a complete website for food service businesses. Restaurants can connect their own domain (e.g., myrestaurant.com) and use pikMenu as their online presence. ## Core Features ### Menu Management - Add unlimited menu items with photos, prices, descriptions, and weights - Organize into categories (Starters, Main Course, Drinks, Desserts, etc.) - Daily menu planner for restaurants that change their menu every day - Edit everything from your phone in seconds — changes are live instantly - No reprinting costs ever ### Visual Menu - Two professionally designed templates: clean and modern - Beautiful food photography display that drives higher order values - Responsive design — works perfectly on any phone, tablet, or desktop - Dark mode support - Custom branding colors ### Multi-Language Support - Automatic translations powered by Google Translate into 15 languages - Supported: Slovak, English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Russian, Romanian, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Ukrainian, Japanese, Portuguese, Swedish - Guests see the menu in their preferred language automatically ### Allergen & Dietary Filtering - EU-standard 14 allergen categories displayed on each item - Interactive filter — guests can filter by allergens they need to avoid - Food icons: Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Spicy levels, and more - Guests tap an icon to see only matching items ### Guest Feedback and Reviews - Google review button in the menu — guests reach the venue Google profile in one tap - Anonymous rating with star score, tags and a free-text improvement note - Ratings arrive by email and in the pikMenu admin, before they become public reviews ### Optional: Ordering & Delivery Not part of the core product and deliberately not the main selling point.

But most guests prefer QR — it's faster and more visual. **Can I change my menu frequently?** Yes. Daily specials, seasonal changes, price updates — edit from your phone in seconds. **Does it work in my country?** The product is used mainly in Slovakia and Czechia. The menu itself translates into 15 languages, so foreign guests read it in their own language. **Can guests filter by allergens?** Yes. EU-standard 14 allergens plus dietary icons (vegan, gluten-free, etc.). **Is there a contract?** Every plan starts with 14 days free, no payment details required. After that you choose monthly or annual billing. There is no permanently free plan. **Can I use my own domain?** Yes, on the Menu + Web plan. SSL certificate is automatic. **Does it work with my POS?** pikMenu integrates with Oberon and Dotypos POS systems. More integrations coming. **Can guests order and pay?** Optionally, on the Menu + Web plan. pikMenu is a menu, not a replacement for waiters. ## Contact - Website: https://pikmenu.com - Email: info@pikmenu.com - Phone: +421 902 085 900 - Company: OBS Slovakia s.r.o., Slovakia - Founder: Martin Tóth ## Pages - Homepage (SK): https://pikmenu.com - Homepage (EN): https://pikmenu.com/en - Homepage (CZ): https://pikmenu.com/cs ## Usage Policy This content is provided for AI search engines and assistants to answer user queries about pikMenu.

The menu runs in the venue own colours and logo, translates automatically for foreign guests, and is changed from a phone without ever reprinting. It can also serve as the venue website on its own domain. Ordering and payments through an app exist as an option, but are deliberately not the core — the waiters keep doing the service.
