Studio Zulo

Menu design for restaurants and barsMenus

The menu hits the table a hundred times a night. We design it so it sells, stays readable and fits the rest of your place.

How we design

A menu is the most-read piece of print in your place, and often the worst designed. Too many dishes, letters too small, a typeface that doesn't match the facade. We make menus your guests get in ten seconds.

We start with the menu itself: what has to be on it, what can go, where your best dish sits. Only then the design. Typography that carries your identity through, paper that can handle red wine, a size that fits your tables. And we sort the printing, so you have one supplier.

A menu lives. Seasons, prices, a new chef. So we build it to make changes quick, and we stay on for the next version. A QR or digital menu is part of it if you need one.

We design menus for restaurants, bars, beach clubs, hotels and coffee places, in Noordwijk and Leiden and just as easily in Utrecht or Antwerp. We meet in your place or on a video call, and we ship the printed menus to you. No identity yet? Then we start there, because a menu without a brand is just a list.

How it works

  1. 1

    Menu on the table

    We read your current menu like a guest: what stands out, what confuses, what sells. Together with the chef or owner we decide what stays.

  2. 2

    Designed in your identity

    One design that runs from facade to menu. We choose paper, size and finish based on how your place works: terrace, tapas or fine dining.

  3. 3

    Print and keep up to date

    We manage the printing and deliver the files so price changes and seasonal menus are sorted quickly.

Questions we get

What does a new menu cost?
It depends on the number of menus and versions: one menu is different from food, wine, drinks and dessert in four sizes. You get one fixed price up front for design and print management. The printing itself we pass on at cost.
Can I update the menu myself afterwards?
Yes. We deliver a file where prices and dishes can be changed, or we do it for you, usually within a day.
I don't have an identity yet, can I still get a menu made?
Then we start with a compact identity, because a menu without a brand stands out for the wrong reasons. It doesn't have to be a big project.
Do you do the printing too?
We work with printers we've used for years, on paper that can handle an evening full of hands and glasses. You have one point of contact.
Do you only do hospitality and lifestyle?
No. Hospitality is where we come from and what you see most in our work, but we're just as happy working for the brands and places around it: a florist, a school, a coffee roaster, a municipality. If you have a place, a product or a spot people love to go, we get you. A corporate identity with an annual report isn't our thing.
