Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a digital menu board?
    A digital menu board is a screen that displays a food and drink menu in place of a printed board. Items, prices, and photos can be updated instantly from a computer. Menus can also change automatically by time of day, such as breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  • How do digital menu boards work?
    Digital menu boards work in three parts: menu content is built in digital signage software, the content is sent over the internet to a media player or a display with a built-in player, and the screen shows the menu on a set schedule. Changes made in the software appear on every connected screen, so one update can reach every location.
  • How much do digital menu boards cost?
    Digital menu boards have two costs. Hardware is one-time: a commercial display, media player, mount, and installation. Software is ongoing, typically $8 to $35 per screen per month based on vendors' published pricing. Total hardware cost depends mostly on screen size, brightness, and how many screens each location needs.
  • How do you display a menu on a TV?
    To display a menu on a TV, design the menu in a digital signage tool or template, connect a digital signage media player to the TV or use a smart display with a built-in player, then pair the player with the software and publish the menu. A USB stick works for one static menu, but software is needed to update prices or rotate menus by time of day.
  • What is the best TV for digital menu boards?
    The best screens for digital menu boards are commercial displays rather than consumer TVs. They are built to run 16 to 24 hours a day, support portrait mounting, and come with commercial warranties. Choose higher brightness for well-lit counters, and much higher brightness for screens that face windows or the outdoors.
  • Are digital menu boards effective?
    Digital menu boards are effective because they solve practical problems that printed menus cannot. Prices update instantly without reprinting, breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus switch automatically, sold-out items can be removed in seconds, and promotions and new items can be featured with photos or motion at the point of decision.
  • How do you create a digital menu board?
    To create a digital menu board, start with a template in digital signage software, then add your items, prices, and photos. Keep it readable from a distance with large fonts, high contrast, and a limited number of items per screen. Group items by category, and put your highest-margin items where eyes land first.
  • Do digital menu boards need to show calories and allergens?
    In the US, restaurants and similar food businesses with 20 or more locations must show calorie counts on menus and menu boards under FDA menu labeling rules. Allergen information is not required on the board itself, but many operators show it anyway. Digital menu boards make both easier to keep accurate when recipes change.
  • How are digital menu boards used in cafeterias, hotels, and convenience stores?
    Corporate and school cafeterias use digital menu boards for daily rotating menus, nutrition details, and station information. Hotels use them for restaurant, bar, and room service menus, plus event catering. Convenience stores use them for hot food, coffee, and combo deals, often switching between morning and evening offers.
  • What does L Squared offer for digital menu boards?
    L Squared supports digital and interactive menu boards, drive-thru displays, nutrition and allergen display, dayparting, and templates and Canva design inside the platform. Food brands including Five Guys, Domino's, Cold Stone Creamery, and OPA! of Greece use L Squared.
