Changelog

Updates. What we just shipped.

Feature releases for venues, guests, and the teams that run the floor. Small fixes and polish stay out of this list.

Food Passport for you and the people you eat with

Guests can now keep Food Passport profiles for themselves and their dining group, with declared severity, an offline Allergy Card in the staff’s language, and a time-limited QR for restaurant handoff — without encoding medical details in the code.

Explore, Multi-Menu and native iPhone menus use the selected group automatically, and show how many dishes match each person. Quiteful never labels food as safe, and does not guarantee the absence of cross-contact.

  • Allergy Card from reviewed safety phrases, including Spanish, German, Polish and Greek
  • Dining group matching on maps and menus, with “some matching options” rather than a safety claim
  • Staff confirm a dietary discussion, not kitchen acceptance

Menus, Multi-Menu and Allergy Cards in ten languages

Guests can now read Quiteful menus and Multi-Menu pages in English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Czech, Greek, Dutch or Polish — while restaurants keep writing in their own source language.

Allergen matching still uses canonical IDs such as peanut, never translated names. Serious allergy wording is a separately reviewed Safety Language Pack, including an offline copy in the iPhone app.

  • Language selector on public menus, remembered for next time
  • Staff handoff language can differ from the diner’s language
  • Travel can suggest a local Allergy Card without changing the app language

One Multi-Menu for every food outlet on site

Resorts, parks and campuses can now publish one Quiteful Venue link that searches every participating restaurant, cafe and kiosk — while each outlet keeps its own standalone menu URL.

Guests filter for a whole dining group, switch language, and open a booking link that already knows the stay dates. The web page works fully without installing the app.

  • Search and filter dishes across the destination, not a list of menu links
  • Opaque booking links and QR codes for the venue, a zone or a single outlet
  • Food Passport dining groups on the web, with an optional save to Quiteful

Historical pages for permanently closed restaurants

When a restaurant closes for good, Quietful can keep its page live with a clear permanently closed notice, a historical menu where a genuine source exists, and nearby places that are still open.

Closed venues stay on the same address as before. We never invent old dishes, prices or allergen information, and thin closure notices stay out of search.

Clearer restaurant pages for search

Quietful restaurant pages now use a consistent title and heading, such as The Globe Glossop Menu, with sections for the menu, dietary information, restaurant details and nearby restaurants.

Stale and permanently closed listings stay on the same URL with a clear warning, and we only link through to a city, cuisine or dietary directory when that page is genuinely useful.

Find restaurants on Quietful Explore

Explore is a public map and search for Quietful restaurant menus. You can look up a dish, a dietary need or a town and see which listings are live, claimed, preview or stale.

City pages such as Restaurants in Glossop only go into search indexes when there are enough complete menus to be useful — we do not generate thin filter combinations.

Claim your Quietful restaurant page

If Quietful already published a preview of your restaurant, you can now claim that same page — the address, menu history and visitor numbers stay put.

After you prove ownership, a short setup walkthrough lets you correct dishes, add dietary and allergen information, set branding and publish. Sponsored Pro venues keep paid tools for a set period without a card charge.

Menu Intelligence for diner demand

Analytics now shows what diners actually do on your Quietful menu: views, searches, dietary filters, popular dishes and booking clicks, including searches that returned no matching items.

Unclaimed restaurant pages can show genuine interest in the listing once enough diner visits have been counted — never a seeded or invented number.

Public restaurant menu previews

Guests can now open a Quietful restaurant page with the full menu, dietary filters and honest allergen labels — including unclaimed previews that never pretend the venue is already a customer.

Restaurant owners can claim the listing from the same page, keep the menu current, and add verified allergen information without diners being sent through a marketing brochure first.

Clearer live menus, faster photos

Titles on photo heroes now stay readable, and dish photos load at a smaller size so phones and computers open the menu quicker.

The corner control that switches between the desktop menu and the phone template is now orange.

Desktop menus by default, with a phone template

Live menus now open as the full restaurant page on a computer. Phones open the guest template automatically, and the orange control switches between the two.

The try demo still starts on the phone hub, with a hero image, venue info, and a button through to the desktop menu.

Brand your menu from one Themes screen

Themes now hold your logo, hero, colours, type, spacing, and what guests see — prices, calories, dietary icons, and allergen warnings.

Locations and individual menus can still override those defaults. Booking and order links stay on the location, where they belong.

Managed Updates

Need something updated? Email your dedicated Quiteful address or send us a request from your dashboard. We make the changes, check they are live, and email you when they are done.

Reply to that email if anything else needs adjusting — you do not need to chase a ticket number.

Available on Managed Updates.

Cleaner, easier-to-scan menu QR codes

Printed menu QR codes now encode a short link instead of the full page URL, so the pattern has fewer dots and is easier to scan from a table tent or poster.

Allergen, nutrition, and restaurant-or-event codes all use the same compact format. Tracking still works when a guest scans.

Authenticator-app login is now optional

You can sign in to the dashboard without setting up an authenticator app first. Two-factor login is still available from your profile if you want the extra check on sign-in.

Guest menu hub with ratings, Wi-Fi info, filters, and section shortcuts

Guest menu for events and casual dining

Free and Essential venues now get a dedicated guest shell: a venue hub, allergen and dietary filters that stick across refresh, per-item selection notes, Wi-Fi details, ratings, social links, and font choice.

On desktop, a floating QR lets guests continue on their phone without losing their place.

Guest menu dish list with add buttons for building a selection

Build your order while browsing the menu

Guests can tap dishes as they browse. The selection builds in a summary that stays within reach, then they can send it to staff with a QR or short code — and optionally push it to Square.

After the visit, they can leave a review from the same flow. It turns the digital menu into something faster than a PDF, without turning it into a full ordering app.

Staff iOS app

Floor staff can now browse a filterable menu on iPhone, mark dishes 86 with allergen-aware substitutes, manage bookings, lock edits, and check nutrition and allergen detail on device.

Sold-out and substitute flows stay consistent with what guests see, including when Square is the operational source of truth.

Public API, embeds, and webhooks

The public menu API now returns structured allergens and nutrition, so websites and apps can show the same trusted data guests see on a QR menu.

An embed script drops a live menu into any site, recipe modifiers travel with the payload, and per-team webhooks include a test action so you can confirm the connection before going live.

Smart AI import

Upload a photo or PDF of a printed menu and Quiteful extracts names, descriptions, prices, and allergens into an editable digital menu.

A visual review step lets you correct OCR before anything is imported, with undo and redo. Prospect demos use the same flow, so a venue can see their own menu before they commit.

Gluten-free and vegan-available flags

Until now, dietary flags were a simple yes or no. You can now mark a dish as gluten-free or vegan as served, or as available with a swap — and guests see that distinction with a tooltip on the public menu.

It is a small change that matches how kitchens actually work, and it keeps allergen and dietary information honest.

Allergen board and drinks filters

Sticky allergen tables now stay in view as you scroll, so staff and guests can check the 14 regulated allergens without losing the dish list.

Drinks menus gained dedicated filters for wine, beer, cocktails, and coffee, with the fields each category actually needs.

WordPress plugin

The first Quiteful WordPress plugin ships, so venues can embed a live allergen-aware menu on their existing site without copying and pasting HTML.

A single shortcode hydrates the editor preview and the public page from the same menu data.

Quiteful foundations

The first release: allergen-aware menus, recipe cards, nutritional tables, custom allergens, live QR codes, and recipe sharing.

Teams, roles, and a Filament admin for day-to-day menu work sat underneath — built so a printed menu could finally stay current after service changed.
