Pub Menu Template

A pub menu carries two things a taproom never has to: a kitchen that runs all day and regulars who already know the list. That combination changes what the board is for — it stops being a catalogue and becomes a place to put whatever is different today.

A pub menu template therefore runs four sections and eighteen lines: Draught, Pub Classics, Sides, Specials. Classics stay fixed for years, which is the point of them, and the Specials block sits where the eye lands first because it is the only part a regular needs to read.

Oxblood and cream at 1280×724 is the house build for 2026, draught across the top in a single row and the kitchen underneath in two columns. Specials get a boxed panel rather than another line, so they read as today rather than as more of the same.

For a food-led room, bottle green and bone at 1280×724 moves the kitchen to the top and shortens draught to six lines. It is the pub menu for a place where most tables arrive to eat and order a pint second.

Hung in the entry it runs tall: dark oak and parchment at 1280×2264, all four sections stacked and the Specials panel at eye height. The hours of food service go at the foot, which is what stops the question at the bar.

Strip the beer out entirely and slate and butter at 1280×724 becomes a pub food menu, for the table card in a room where the draught list lives on the wall.

Section names, classics, sides, specials and the service hours are all editable, and the draught row can be removed entirely for the table version. Other beer menu design cover the beer side on its own, the wider library has more food menu template, and prices follow the point of sale — the same connection behind the menu boards for bars and pubs that swap a specials panel over at open.
