A QR menu can be launched for free — and it suits a restaurant, cafe, bar, hotel and even a beach or summer terrace. Here's what's included in the free start and what to watch for.
What the guest sees after scanning the QR
- An up-to-date menu with photos, prices, weight and a description of each dish.
- The venue's opening hours and contacts.
- The Wi-Fi password.
- Allergen marks and tags: spicy, vegan, gluten-free, bestseller.
- Ratings and reviews for each individual dish.
- Table ordering and calling a waiter without an app.
How to set up a free QR menu in 30 minutes
- Register your venue on UA-Pro — registration is free.
- Add dishes with photos and prices and set up zones and tables.
- Download and print the generated table QR codes.
The first 30 days include full features for free, then from UAH 125/month, roughly half the price of alternatives. Venue registration is free forever.
How it differs from "just a QR generator"
A free generator only makes an image linking to a static menu. The UA-Pro QR system adds table ordering, payment straight to your account with no platform fee, a kitchen display and a public venue page found in Google and AI search.
Who it's for
Restaurants, cafes, bars, hotels, resorts, beaches and summer terraces — any venue where guests find it convenient to order from a phone. Browse the catalog of venues already on UA-Pro.

Own website, third-party QR service or UA-Pro: what to choose
A free QR menu for a restaurant can be built three ways. Here is how they differ:
| Criterion | Own website | Standalone QR service | UA-Pro |
|---|---|---|---|
| Start-up cost | Development + hosting | Subscription or commission | 30 days free, then from UAH 125/mo |
| Ordering from the table | Needs separate development | Often only on paid plans | Yes, in the base feature set |
| Bill payment | Self-integration | Often with a service fee | Straight to your account, 0% platform commission |
| Kitchen display (KDS) | No | Rarely | Yes |
| Menu updates | Via a developer | From your phone | From your phone in seconds |
| Found on Google | Depends on SEO | No — a tool for the guest at the table | Yes — public page in the catalog and AI search |
A standalone QR generator works if you only need a static menu without ordering. If you need ordering, payment and analytics — a QR menu for a restaurant by UA-Pro covers it all in one, with a free 30-day start.
