đź’ˇ Why Your Menu is Hard to Read in Dim Lighting (and How to Fix It!)
Your restaurant’s ambiance is 🔥, but if your customers are using their phone flashlights to read the menu, there’s a problem!
🚨 Common mistakes that hurt menu readability:
❌ Fancy, cursive fonts that strain the eyes
❌ Low-contrast text (light gray on white = disaster)
❌ Tiny font sizes that require a magnifying glass
❌ Overuse of ALL CAPS, italics, or script fonts
âś… How to fix it:
✔️ Stick to clean, modern sans-serif fonts like Lato, Poppins, or Open Sans
✔️ Use high-contrast colors (e.g., dark text on a light background)
✔️ Maintain at least a 12-14 pt font size
✔️ Prioritize readability over aesthetics
Your menu is a powerful branding tool—don’t let bad typography drive customers away! 🚀
