☕ Overview:

The QR Digital Menu project transforms the traditional café ordering experience into a seamless, fully digital journey via mobile phones.

Instead of printed menus or waiting for a barista, customers simply scan a QR code placed on their table to instantly open a mobile-first web app on the café’s specific domain. From there, they can browse items, customize drinks, order, pay online, and even track preparation in real time.

This design aims to make café visits faster, smoother, and more personal — creating a balance between efficiency, warmth, and premium brand experience.

💡 Problem:

In most cafés, printed menus and manual orders lead to:

  • Long waiting times for customers
  • Miscommunication between barista and customers
  • Limited personalization for orders
  • Extra operational effort for staff
  • Outdated or unchangeable printed menus

This results in lost time, reduced satisfaction, and inefficiency, especially during rush hours.

🎯 Goal:

To design a smart, digital ordering platform that:

  • Eliminates the need for printed menus and manual note-taking.
  • Gives customers full control over their orders.
  • Enhances accuracy, speed, and personalization.
  • Offers a frictionless, delightful user experience that strengthens the café’s brand identity.

🧩 Design Deliverables (from UXpilot.ai):

    • High-fidelity UI mockups
    • Presentation-ready screen sequence

🚀 Outcome:

The QR Digital Menu provides a frictionless and delightful experience for both customers and café staff.

Customers enjoy control, personalization, and speed — while staff can focus more on preparation quality instead of manual order-taking.

This concept shows how human-centered design + smart automation can redefine everyday experiences in hospitality.

✨ Bonus Feature:

The app includes a real-time order tracker — showing “Preparing”, “Almost ready”, and “Ready for pickup” stages with animations and a visual progress bar.

This element not only improves user satisfaction but also subtly communicates the café’s care for time and quality — a great emotional UX touch.

🤖 Prompt used in UXpilot.ai:

Project: QR Digital Menu — A New Era of Café Ordering.

Design a mobile-first web app that replaces traditional printed café menus with a fully digital, personalized, and interactive experience.

Scenario:

When a customer sits at a café, instead of browsing a printed menu or waiting for a barista, they simply scan a QR code placed on the table. The QR opens a dedicated web page hosted on the café’s own domain (e.g., menu.cafename.com). From there, the customer can view categories, explore products, customize each item, and complete the entire order digitally on their mobile phone.

Design Objectives:

- Create at least 10 essential screens covering the end-to-end customer journey.

- Emphasize elegance, warmth, and premium experience.

- Focus on UX clarity, intuitive navigation, and delightful microinteractions.

Core Screens:

1. Splash Screen — Minimal animation with café logo and tagline.

2. Onboarding Screens (x2) — Explain how the digital menu works and benefits users.

3. Login / Register — Allow sign-in via mobile number or email.

4. Home / Categories — Display main product sections: Hot Drinks, Cold Drinks, Shakes, Desserts, Pastries, and etc.

5. Product List — Grid or card view of menu items with thumbnail, price, and quick “Add” option , after adding item we need " + " and " - " for increase and decrease.

6. Product Details & Customization — Let the user personalize their drink:

- Coffee type (Arabica, Robusta, or blend)

- Temperature (hot, warm, iced)

- Cup size (small, medium, large)

- Toppings (cream, caramel, chocolate, syrup, etc.)

7. Multi-order Screen — Add orders for friends without requiring separate logins.

8. Cart / Order Review — Display selected items with edit and remove options.

9. Checkout & Payment — Secure checkout with discount code field and online payment confirmation.

10. Order Status / Timer — Show real-time countdown until the order is ready, with subtle animation.

11. Order Confirmation — “Your order is ready!” animation and a personalized discount code for the next visit.

12. Profile / Order History — Optional screen showing past orders and loyalty rewards.

Visual Style:

- Theme: Luxury and cozy café atmosphere

- Color Palette: Warm neutrals — cream, espresso brown, soft gold

- Typography: Elegant serif for headings, modern sans-serif for content

- UI: Rounded corners, smooth shadows, light glassmorphism layers

- Iconography: Thin-line icons, consistent across all screens

- Animation: Smooth transitions for buttons, progress timer, and order confirmation

Accessibility & Usability:

- Mobile-first layouts with responsive design

- High contrast for readability

- Finger-friendly touch targets and intuitive gestures

- Language toggle (English / local language)

- Light and dark mode variations

Tone & Feel:

The design should feel warm, premium, and human. The customer should experience the same comfort as sipping a coffee in a calm, elegant space — but through digital touchpoints on their mobile screen.

Functional Flow Summary:

- Scan QR → Enter digital menu

- Login or continue as guest

- Browse categories → Choose product

- Customize drink details

- Add multiple orders (for companions)

- Review and confirm cart

- Pay online securely

- See countdown for order preparation

- Receive animated confirmation

- Discount code for next coming

Output Expectations:

- Generate both low-fidelity wireframes and high-fidelity UI mockups

- Maintain visual consistency across all screens

- Include notes for interactions, animations, and transitions

- Use real placeholder data (e.g., “Caramel Latte – $5.50”)

- Deliver screens suitable for presentation in a UX case study

Design Focus:

Highlight usability, personalization, and efficiency — demonstrating how digital ordering enhances customer satisfaction while improving café operations.
