Can Claude Code create a restaurant menu?

Yes, Claude Code can create a restaurant menu. Connect the Duck Hub MCP server with a dk_live_ API key from your Duck Hub Integrations page — Claude Code then gets ready-made menu tools and can build your complete menu (categories, dishes, prices, photos, translations) directly inside Duck Hub and publish it as a QR menu.

Do I need to code to create a menu with Claude Code?

No. The setup is pasting one URL (and for terminal tools an API key); after that you write plain messages like “add a Pizza category with these 8 items” and Claude Code does the rest inside Duck Hub.

How long does it take to create a digital menu with Claude Code?

About 5 minutes for a typical menu: connecting Claude Code takes a minute, then it builds the menu from your list or PDF in one go, and you publish. Bigger menus with photos and several translation languages take a little longer.

Is it free to create a menu with Claude Code and Duck Hub?

Yes. Duck Hub's free plan includes the digital QR menu and AI-agent access through MCP, so Claude Code can build and publish your menu at no cost. Only the order-management tools require a paid plan.

How to create a QR menu for your restaurant with Claude Code

Duck Hub MCP lets Claude Code build a complete digital menu for your restaurant right from the terminal. One command to connect with your API key — then Claude Code creates the categories, prices, photos and translations, and publishes your QR code menu.

A digital menu built by Claude Code

Duck Hub hosts an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server — the open standard AI tools use to work with external services. Once connected, Claude Code sees Duck Hub as a set of ready-made menu tools and manages your whole menu from a conversation.

Full menu structure

Claude Code creates categories and dishes with names, descriptions and prices — from a pasted list, a PDF menu or a plain conversation.

Photos, banners & logo

Claude Code sets product photos, promo banners and your venue logo, so the menu looks finished — not just filled in.

Menu translations

Ask Claude Code to translate your menu into other languages — guests pick their language on the same QR menu.

Publish when ready

Nothing is guest-visible until Claude Code publishes. Every publish keeps a rollback snapshot, so you can always go back one step.
