Food trucks
Photos that sell from the line, Big 9 allergen tags on every item, sold-out updates in one tap, and a QR code that is your menu board.
Why food trucks choose MenuIQ
You don't have a dining room, a host stand, or a wall-mounted menu board with room for twenty items. You have a window and a line — and every second that line stalls costs you a sale. MenuIQ gives every item on your menu a photo, Big 9 allergen tags down to the specific ingredient, dietary labels, and a sold-out toggle that pulls items the moment you run out. Customers scan a QR code on the truck and browse the full menu with photos and allergen filters before they reach the window. Upload a photo of your menu and you're live in under two minutes, starting at $10 a month.

What MenuIQ does for food trucks
Photos that sell from the line
Add photos to your items and place bestsellers in a Featured Specials section at the top of your digital menu.
Big 9 allergens auto-tagged across every item
Upload a menu photo and allergen tags are extracted in under two minutes — no spreadsheet, no guessing.
Sold out? Gone in one tap.
Hide any item from the live menu instantly. You run out, it's off before the next customer scans — no awkward conversation at the window.
Customers decide before they reach the window
A QR code on the truck lets customers see the full menu — photos, prices, allergen filters — while they wait in line.
Upload a photo, live in two minutes
AI extracts items, descriptions, prices, and allergen tags from a photo of your current menu. Review, confirm, publish.
One login, every truck
Run two trucks or five from one account, each with its own menu and allergen tags.
Guest experience
The photo closes the sale before the customer reaches the window.
A customer twenty people back in line scans the QR code and sees your birria tacos — photo, description, price. By the time they step up, they already know what they want and they're ordering the higher-margin item they wouldn't have noticed on a chalkboard. No pitch from you, no hesitation at the window.
The line moves because decisions happen before the window.
A QR code taped to the truck or posted at the start of the line lets every customer browse the full menu — photos, allergen filters, dietary labels — on their phone. At a festival with a hundred people deep, that's the difference between serving eighty covers an hour and losing half the line to the truck next door.
With MenuIQ
A digital menu with photos of every item, allergen and dietary labels customers can filter from their phone, sold-out items removed in one tap, and source-level allergen attribution that answers questions before they're asked.
Without MenuIQ
A chalkboard with names and prices that customers squint at from ten feet back. Allergen questions answered one at a time at the window. No way to tell the line you're out of the brisket until someone orders it.
Allergens
Allergens tagged to the ingredient, not just the item.
MenuIQ tags each allergen to its specific source — "soy: soy sauce in the marinade, dairy: crema on the elote." A customer with a nut allergy sees exactly which items are safe without holding up the line to ask. When you're working a festival with a line out the parking lot, that's one less bottleneck at the window.
Menu management
You 86 it, the menu updates — before the next scan.
Food trucks run out of items. It's part of the business. One tap hides any item from the live menu instantly, so the next customer who scans sees only what you can actually serve. No more apologizing at the window, no handwritten "SOLD OUT" signs taped over the chalkboard. When you restock tomorrow, one tap brings it back.
You expected this to take a weekend. It takes two minutes.
Upload a photo or PDF of your current menu. MenuIQ extracts every item, description, price, and starting allergen tag automatically. Review what the AI found, confirm, and publish — your digital menu is live before you roll out for the lunch spot.

More ways MenuIQ works for food trucks
Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options clearly labeled — customers with dietary restrictions see what's available before they reach the window.
Auto-translations serve the menu in each customer's language from the same QR code — useful at festivals and events with diverse crowds.
A printable allergen chart maps every item against all Big 9 allergens — tape it inside the window or hand it to any customer who asks.
Your menu lives on your own branded page — not buried inside a Yelp listing or Google snippet.
Accurate allergen info and real photos turn first-time festival customers into followers who track you down at your next spot.
Invite your crew to update the menu and mark items sold out without accessing billing.
