Carte
A live digital menu your kitchen controls - allergen-safe, always up to date.
The problem with printed menus
Printed menus go stale. When a dish sells out, when prices change, when you swap an ingredient - that menu you paid to print is suddenly wrong. You're reprinting, throwing away, and your cost per page keeps climbing.
Meanwhile, UK food law (Natasha's Law and the Food Information Regulations) requires you to declare the 14 named allergens on every dish. But a static menu doesn't help a diner actually filter for what they can eat - they have to ask, and you have to know.
Allergen filtering that actually works
Every dish on a Carte menu carries all 14 UK named allergen tags. Diners can tap to hide anything they're allergic to, or show only vegan, gluten-free, nut-free - whatever matters to them. Update a price or 86 a dish and it vanishes from the menu instantly. No reprinting. No calls to the kitchen.

Does Carte keep me allergen-compliant?
Carte structures and displays all 14 UK named allergens per dish, making allergen declaration systematic and visible to diners. You remain responsible for accurate allergen data, but the system makes compliance much easier and more transparent than printed menus.
Do diners need an app?
No. Carte opens in any web browser from a QR code. Diners simply scan and start filtering - nothing to install, no app stores, no friction.
Can I update the menu myself?
Yes. You get an owner dashboard where you can update prices, toggle dishes as sold-out, add photos, and edit allergen tags - all in seconds, from any device, any time. Changes appear on the menu instantly.
Can it match my branding?
Yes. Carte themes to your colours, logo and brand voice. We work with you to make sure the menu feels like part of your business, not a generic tool.
