Why it looks the way it does
Petit Bistro is monochrome on parchment: a flowing Great Vibes script for the masthead, Special Elite typewriter type for the dishes, and engraved-style Paris line drawings. On the trifold the illustration changes from panel to panel, so the menu tells a small story as a guest opens it. Everything is centred with prices under the dishes, as on a chalkboard menu in a Paris bistro. It is designed around the fold, so choose the trifold unless you need more pages.
Arabic and English on the same menu
Amiri's classical Naskh sits comfortably with the old-fashioned typewriter English, and it prints cleanly in the single ink colour.
Sizes to print it in
The trifold first, or an A5 booklet if the menu runs longer. Every template exports as a print-ready PDF at exact size with 3 mm bleed and crop marks. The menu printing guide lists the specs your print shop will ask for, and menu sizes for printing compares the formats.
The same menu as a QR code
Publish a menu made with Petit Bistro and it also becomes a QR code menu that keeps these colours and headings on a phone, with an Arabic and English switch and WhatsApp ordering. How the QR menu works.
