Restaurant / Cafe Menus

Product Description

Upgrade your menu presentation with our professionally printed Restaurant / Café Menus, available in a range of sizes and finishes to suit your venue.

We offer two protective finishes:

Lamination

• A thin protective coating applied directly to the surface of the menu.
• Available in Gloss or Matt finish.
• Printed on 350gsm stock for a premium feel.
• Ideal for indoor use where menus are handled frequently but not exposed to moisture.

Encapsulation

• A full plastic seal that wraps around the entire sheet, edge to edge.
• Available in Gloss or Matt finish.
• Printed on 250gsm stock before encapsulation.
• Perfect for high-traffic environments, outdoor use, or where menus need to be wiped clean regularly.

What's the difference? Lamination is sleek and subtle—great for aesthetics. Encapsulation is more rugged, with sealed edges that offer maximum protection against spills and wear.

Artwork Guidelines

To ensure the best print quality, please supply your artwork as a PDF file with the following specifications:

• Size: Match the final trimmed size of your menu, plus 3mm bleed on all sides.
• Resolution: Minimum 300dpi for sharp print output.
• Colour Mode: Use CMYK (not RGB) to ensure accurate colour reproduction.
• Fonts: All fonts should be embedded or converted to outlines.
• Layers: Flatten all layers before exporting to avoid transparency issues.
• Margins: Keep important text and logos at least 5mm from the edge to avoid trimming.

If you're ordering encapsulated menus, avoid placing critical content too close to the edge—encapsulation seals beyond the trim line, which may slightly reduce visible area.
