QR codes for pubs, hotels & cafés

Last updated 16 June 2026

Pubs, hotels, B&Bs, and cafés use QR codes for menus, guest WiFi, reviews, and booking links — less reprinting when prices change and faster service at the bar.

Common hospitality QR uses

  • Food & drink menus — PDF or web menu (restaurant menu guide)
  • Guest WiFi — scan to join without spelling the password (WiFi QR guide)
  • Google reviews — counter card after a good meal (reviews guide)
  • Table booking — OpenTable, ResDiary, or your own form
  • Room service & info — digital compendium for hotel rooms

Why dynamic codes suit pubs and hotels

Seasonal menus, ale rotations, and lunch vs dinner pricing change weekly. A dynamic QR on table tents or room folders keeps the same print while you update the link — critical when allergen info must stay current.

Getting started on Free-QR.co.uk

  1. Start with one high-traffic touchpoint — bar menu or WiFi card.
  2. Design on the homepage; match your brand colours.
  3. Free plan: 1 live QR — enough for a single site’s main menu.
  4. Pro (from £3/mo): up to 10 editable codes — separate QR for menu, WiFi, reviews, and events.

Guest experience tips

  • Laminate table QR cards — sticky fingerprints need contrast and size (size guide)
  • Offer paper menus as backup for accessibility
  • Place review QR near the bill, not the toilet door
  • Holiday lets: combine WiFi + house rules on one landing page, one QR

Compliance

Calorie labelling and allergen rules apply to many UK hospitality businesses — ensure your linked menu stays accurate. See UK GDPR if you capture marketing emails via WiFi portals.
