Explain scantron menus to me like I'm a dumb second grader who got left back

Once it pops up, it will have a camera view and an outline of a square on the screen.

Point square around the QR code - the QR code is the square with lines/squiggles/dots. This QR code is a URL address (website address).

It will take you to the website where the menu is listed. On your phone it can be hard to read because your screen is small and you will have to zoom and move around the menu to read the items.

Hope this helps.

Just use your camera. No extra all needed.

Right?

Why can't every menu work like cheap sushi joints? Just tick the box next to what you want to order or write a number if you want more than one, hand it in, and get your food without having to talk to anyone.

That's why I love places like The Roost where all the ordering and paying is done on your phone. It's 2022, you shouldn't have to talk to anyone not in your party anymore. Leave me alone and god help you if you do any of that "ingratiating" nonsense like squatting down to eye level or giving me a single solitary tidbit of your personal life.

Rut-roh! Somebody seems to have a case of the Weepy Wednesdays over here. Well, don't fear, I'm going to add some cheer! Now what can I get you fine folks? How about we start with Grandma, looking extra pretty in that green cardigan that matches your lovely eyes?

Get out and take your 27 pieces of flair with you!

Jesus what a sad sack. The future you wish for is a dystopian hell.

People who say rut-Roh are so annoying.

UGGHHH. This is one of the pandemic things that needs to die! I hate the stupid QR code menus. I love that you called it scantron. You rock.

If my adult kids are with me in the restaurant they handle the QR code ordering for me, which I appreciate.

As an older adult my ideal is an actual hand held menu with large print since I rarely bring my reading glasses to the restaurant and typically there is often low lighting.

In a pinch I am totally tech savvy enough to order on a QR code menu.

I hate them because my kids don't have phones and prior to QR codes being ubiquitous, we left our phones in the car so we could be device free at dinner. That said, almost everywhere has paper if you ask. Except Bartaco, but that's a whole other annoying thing when everyone doesn't have a phone. Everyone has to ORDER from the QR code!

I will be contrarian and say that I love the QR codes. But I'm also a germophobe who knows how disgustingly gross menus are.
To each their own

On my iphone, you don't even have to tap a link; point the camera at the QR code, it focuses after a few seconds, and the link automatically opens in Safari.

Still, I hate them for everything except parking with parking apps when the code is on the meter.

Huge PIA. Part of the pleasure of going out to eat is to get off our screens and engage with the physical world.

I HATE those electronic menus. Despise them.

I also read the subject line as “Scranton menus” and was delightedly expecting to read about some weird regional food.

😆 Scranton actually does have its own weird pizza style
