    I dislike qr menus mostly cuz their websites suck and I often don’t carry a phone.

    Edit: Let me just add that as a coder my dream is to one day be hired for a really expensive and complex project and to give them a solution that only uses paper.

    Paper menus are just full color e ink large foldable ipads that don’t weight a thing and are cheap, and have a super accessible interface.

    • I’ve used exactly one QR coded menu that didn’t suck. Every other one was some manner of infuriating, top method being “every item takes up 75%+ of your phone’s screen and is all arranged vertically so it’s impossible to compare two items without scrolling through 3-40 screens worth”.

        That last bit is the most annoying part. I can’t stand not being able to quickly skim and compare and since most restaurants have too many items on their menu at it is I find it especially annoying.
