Yes, laminated menus are durable and easy to clean during service.

Can I order short-run menu printing?

How to choose the paper stock for your menu

Choose the right paper stock so that your menu feels as good as the food & drinks you serve.

What paper stocks do we offer?
Select from a wide range of paper stocks to suit the product, your brand or eco credentials. All our paper stocks are FSC & Carbon Balanced. Choose from uncoated, silk or 100% recycled paper. Silk paper is coated, which offers a smooth, slightly shiny finish that will showcase bright colours. Uncoated paper provides a more natural, tactile finish.

What are the most popular menu sizes?
We offer custom menu sizes for bespoke projects, but our most popular formats include A5 for drinks menus and specials, A4 for standard restaurant menus, A3 for placemat menus and displays, and DL for takeaway and folded menus.

Need help bringing your menu ideas to life?
We can design your menus for you, advise on the best size and format for your venue, and help prepare print-ready artwork. If you are designing your own, we recommend supplying high-resolution PDF artwork with bleed included, but if you’re unsure, our team is always happy to help. We can also print to CMYK and advise on colour reproduction to help keep your branding consistent across every menu. We’d recommend a minimum font size of 10.
