Menu Structure
Throughout our documentation, we will be referencing different concepts about the menu, so it’s important that you familiarize yourself with them.
Different elements build upon each other to form the menu selection – going from the most generic “Sections” to the very specific “Modifier". You can find below a short explanation of each element.

You’ll notice that offers appear as a separate element from the menu architecture. That is because offers play a different role in our platform – often one of the most visited pages in our web and app, offers attract many guests which we then aim to retain and upsell. From a guest standpoint, offers live outside of the menu. Therefore, they are configured separately. : Loyalty - Offers
In the following sections, we will be focusing on the menu structure pyramid.
Static Menu vs. Store Menu
Static Menu is the menu guests see on our platforms before selecting a service mode or a restaurant. Therefore, it is a region-wide brand menu without any pricing & availability information as no restaurant or service mode have been selected yet.
Store Menu,on the other hand,is the menu displayed once those selections are done, hence it is the menu where the pricing information is displayed to the guests as well as whether menu items are available for purchasing.
Feature Static Menu
If a user already has items in the cart and selects a different store or service mode, one or more items could be unavailable. For example, the selected store could run out of ingredients or might not serve that specific menu item. In these cases, a modal will be presented to the user stating the below item(s) are not available.
Feature Static Menu is the feature to configure the Item Unavailable Modal above. It could be set up as follows.
First, configure the header of the modal:
Then, configure the body text of the modal.
And lastly, configure the image of the modal.
Menu Management
It’s important to note that menu management includes two topics:
Content Management – this is done in our content management system, called Sanity.
Pricing & Availability Management – this is either done in the Point of Sale or the Digital Operations Portal.
