Live menu

A real menu your customers can actually use

Not a blurry photo. Not a PDF that won't load on mobile. A fast, clean, properly-formatted menu page that works on every device — no app, no account, no friction for the person trying to figure out what you're serving.

📱

No app required

Customers open your menu in any browser — Safari, Chrome, whatever. Nothing to install. Nothing to create an account for. Click or scan and it's there.

Loads instantly

Served from servers physically close to your customers — not a single data center on the other side of the country. Fast everywhere, even on slow mobile connections.

🗂

Organized by category

Items grouped into sections — Tacos, Drinks, Sides, Specials. Sub-categories for menus that need a second level. Everything where customers expect to find it.

🏷

Dietary flags

Gluten-Free, Vegetarian, Vegan, Dairy-Free, Contains Nuts — shown as small colored badges on each item. Customers with restrictions find what they can eat immediately.

📝

Item descriptions

Tap any item for the full description. Great for specials, ingredient callouts, seasonal context, or anything that makes the food sound as good as it tastes.

Size & price variations

Small, medium, large. Half, whole. Cup, pint, flight. List multiple price points for the same item using separate rows with a Variation column. Both appear on the menu.

Instant updates

Change anything. Instantly. From your phone.

Make a quick change directly in your dashboard, or sync from your spreadsheet for a bigger update. Either way, your live menu reflects it in seconds — the QR code stays the same, the link stays the same, you never touch a printer.

1
Edit your spreadsheet

Change a price. Add an item. Mark a category as sold out. Do it in Google Sheets, Excel, Numbers, or any app that exports CSV.

2
Click "Sync Now"

One button in your dashboard. StarviewMenu validates your data, upserts changes by SKU, and publishes the result. No duplicates created, no items lost.

3
Done. Instantly live.

Customers who scan your QR code a second later see the updated menu. No waiting. No cache delay. No re-printing.

Edit items directly in the dashboard

Update a price, fix a typo, or add a description without touching your spreadsheet. Click any item field on the Items page, type the change, and it's live. Re-syncing later will warn you before overwriting manual edits.

👁

Hide items without deleting them

Toggle visibility directly on the Items page, or set the Visible column to N in your sheet. The item disappears from customers but stays in your database — ready to bring back when you restock or the season returns.

🔗

Google Sheets URL or CSV upload

Publish your Google Sheet once and paste the URL. Every future sync re-fetches from that URL automatically. Or upload a CSV from any spreadsheet app — your choice, every time.

QR codes & sharing

One link. Print it, share it, text it.

The moment your menu syncs you get a permanent link and a QR code. Both live forever. Share them everywhere people look before they decide to show up.

QR code — print it yourself

Generate your QR code in the dashboard. Six professional design themes. Download and print from any printer — tape it to your truck, hang it at your booth, put it in your window. It never expires because the URL never changes.

🔗

Permanent link — share it anywhere

Your menu lives at starviewmenu.com/menu/your-name forever. Put it in your Instagram bio, your Google Business profile, your Facebook page, your Yelp listing, your email signature, a text to a regular. One link, works everywhere.

Show up in search like you mean it

StarviewMenu automatically generates structured data — the machine-readable signals that make Google eligible to show your restaurant's details directly in search results. Most restaurants are invisible to this. Yours won't be.

Actual appearance determined by Google. Structured data makes you eligible — without it, you're not eligible at all.
🍽

Cuisine type in search

Set your cuisine tags in Settings and they can appear under your restaurant name in Google results — so people searching "Mexican near me" find you.

🕐

Hours in search

Define your schedule and Google can display "Open now" or your hours inline — answering the most-asked question before the customer even clicks.

📋

Menu items in search

Your actual items with prices can appear as cards in Google search results. Your food, showing up where people are already looking for it.

Real-time status & branding

Tell customers you're open before they drive over

A live Open / Closed badge on your menu page — computed from your schedule automatically, or toggled manually when today is different from the plan. Plus the brand elements that make your menu feel like yours.

🟢

Schedule-based Open / Closed

Set your hours once in Settings. The badge on your menu page updates automatically — open during your hours, closed outside them. Per-day schedules, different open/close times for each day of the week.

🔄

Manual override — anytime

Sold out at 1pm on a Saturday? Running late? Toggle open/closed manually from your dashboard. Override clears automatically at midnight so you don't have to remember to turn it back.

Logo & cover photo

Upload your logo and a cover photo from your dashboard. They appear at the top of your customer-facing menu page, making it look professional and clearly yours rather than generic.

🖼

Item photos

Upload a photo for any item in your dashboard, or paste a URL. Shown as a thumbnail in the menu list and full-size when a customer taps the item. Food photos sell food.

📞

Tap-to-call

Your phone number on the menu is a live tap-to-call button on mobile. No copying and typing. One tap and the call is placed.

📍

Tap-to-directions

Your address opens directly in Apple Maps or Google Maps with one tap. Useful when someone's already on the way and needs to navigate from wherever they are.

Account & management

One login. Up to 10 menus. Zero passwords.

Sign in with Google — four seconds, no password, no verification email. Manage every menu you run from one dashboard. Each gets its own permanent link and QR code.

🔑

Google sign-in only

No username, no password, no "forgot password" loop. Your Google account is your login. Works on any device, synced across all of them, forever.

Up to 10 menus per account

Running two trucks and a pop-up? Separate catering menu from your dine-in menu? Each gets its own link, QR code, and settings. Manage them all from one place.
