The short answer

How do you get a QR menu for a restaurant in France?

Use a carte numérique you edit from your phone. With doXmenu you build the carte in French, mark allergens on every dish, put the plat du jour and the formule online each morning, and switch on English, German and Spanish for visitors on one QR code. Dish names can stay French. It sits next to the menu you post outside and your printed cartes, which stay. The first month is free; then 12.99€ a month on the yearly plan.

Why doXmenu fits restaurants in France

Plat du jour, live by noon

The formule updated from your phone each morning and translated into every language you switch on. Hide a dish with one tap when it runs out.

A carte des vins that behaves

Vintages and prices change in seconds, a sold-out bottle is hidden with one tap, and every label can carry a short note in the guest’s language.

Your bistro’s identity, kept

Your typography, colours and photography, never a generic template. Boeuf bourguignon can stay boeuf bourguignon in every language, with the description translated.

French first, 23 more languages

English, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and more of the 24 menu languages from one QR code, switched with one tap.

Your menu from a photo, with AI

Upload photos or a PDF of your current menu and AI builds a draft in a few minutes, translated into your other menu languages. You check it and publish.

Allergens on every dish

Mark the 14 EU allergens once per dish; guests see them by name, in their own language, and they stay current when a recipe changes.

Rules to know in France

  • Restaurants post the day’s menus and a card with at least five wine prices outside, visible and legible from the street during service and at least from 11:30 for lunch and 18:00 for dinner, and keep identical menus available inside (Article 4). Prices include taxes and service, with "Prix service compris" and the rate when a service charge applies (Article 1), and every set menu says "boisson comprise" or "boisson non comprise" (Article 5).

  • The QR menu adds to those displays; it does not replace them. Reporting on almost 16,000 tourism businesses checked in 2024, the DGCCRF listed prices shown only by QR code in restaurants among the breaches it answered with warnings and orders to comply.

  • Allergen information is given in writing, legibly, and guests must be able to reach it directly and freely (Code de la consommation, Article R412-14). doXmenu shows the 14 EU allergens by name on every dish; keep a printed list for guests without a phone.

    Source: Service Public, allergens to declare
  • Beef, pork, sheep meat and poultry carry their origin on the menu or a notice, in fixed wording such as "Origine : France" (Decree 2002-1465 as amended by Decree 2025-141). Write it in the dish description and it is translated with the menu. Checked 17 October 2026; information, not legal advice.
