MENU CATEGORY MANAGEMENT – should reflect how your physical menu is organized. For example, you might have categories like All day breakfast, Salads, Sandwiches, Hot Drinks, Juices. If in one category you have more than 30 menus, it’s better if you divide the category into two. That would be easier for operational people to locate the menu. If you have 3 outlets in one property and all of them are using the same category, there is no need to create 3 categories.
Typical example of menu categories are the following:
- Cold Drinks
- Pork
- Chicken
- Seafood
- Beef
- Coffee & Tea
- Smoothies
- Local Favorites
- Healthy Meals
- Wines
- Beers
Important Note: Before you delete any menu categories, unlink the existing linking first in Menu per outlet and Menu card linking.
