Should the menu have photos or only type?

Yes to a photo on the few dishes you want to push, if the picture is from the venue. Do not put a photo on the whole menu: the rest reads better in type, with the price in a column.

Write to us. A quote with no commitment.

Choose at most one dish per section that has a recent photo. Every photo is stock and the plate that reaches the table does not look like it. You get the menu with those photos at a readable size and the rest in the same type, without mismatched frames.
