QR code menu & table ordering
A QR code menu that takes the order and sends it to your kitchen
Most "QR menus" are a PDF. Diny is a live menu on your own web address: guests scan, order, call the captain and pay from their own phone, and every order lands at the right station the moment it is sent.
What happens at the table
Scan, no download
The table QR opens your restaurant's menu in the phone browser. Guests sign in with their number and a one-time code — no app store, no password.
A 4-digit Table PIN
The first scan opens the table. Friends join with its PIN, so the group shares one bill and a phone at the next table cannot order on yours.
Live prices and offers
Veg / non-veg / drinks filters, combos, sold-out items marked, and the offer price for this hour shown before they order.
Order in rounds
Starters now, mains later. Each round goes to the kitchen and bar as its own ticket, with a short window to cancel before it is cooked.
Call the captain
One tap calls the captain to the table — for water, a question or the bill — and shows on the captain's floor screen.
Pay from the phone
The bill shows a UPI QR with the exact amount filled in. Cash and card are recorded by the cashier the same way.
PDF QR menu vs a Diny ordering menu
| PDF QR menu | Diny | |
|---|---|---|
| Changing a price or dish | Re-make and re-upload the PDF | Edit it in the admin app; every table sees it instantly |
| Sold-out items | Guests order, staff come back to apologise | Marked sold out the moment the kitchen says so |
| Taking the order | A captain still writes it down | Guest orders; it prints at the right station |
| Offers and happy hours | A poster or a captain remembering | Applied to the bill automatically for that hour |
| Knowing your guests | Nothing | Phone numbers, visits and spend, for loyalty and offers |
Your staff stay in control
Guest ordering does not remove the captain — it removes the running back and forth. Captains see every table on one floor screen: who is waiting, who called, who asked for the bill. They can add items for guests who would rather not scan, move items between tables, and approve the bill at the table.
The kitchen and the bar each see only their own items, quantity first, and the ticket prints on its own after the guest's cancel window closes — see KOT printing & kitchen display.

Questions owners ask
Do guests need to install an app?
No. Scanning the table QR opens your restaurant's ordering page in the phone browser. Guests sign in with their phone number and a one-time code.
What if a guest does not want to scan?
The captain takes the order on their phone as usual. It goes to the kitchen and onto the same bill exactly as a guest order would.
Can guests order from home using the QR?
No. A table is opened by the first scan and joined with its 4-digit PIN; the captain can see and close it. Orders only reach the kitchen from an open table.
How fast can we go live?
Most restaurants take their first Diny order within a day of sending us the menu.
What does it cost?
There is no hardware to buy, and setup and training are part of going live. Message us your number of tables and we will share pricing for your floor.
