Restaurant portrait goes digital: what’s behind it
What is a restaurant portrait?
A restaurant portrait presents a café, bistro or small shop as a web publication in magazine format. It holds the story, the people, the menu or range, news, opening hours and contact details. Guests open it by QR code or link.
Why small businesses need a portrait of their own
Before a visit, guests look up the menu, opening hours and atmosphere. A portrait answers those questions in one place and shows what makes the business special at the same time. Unlike a classic website, it is quick to create and easy to maintain.
What belongs in a restaurant portrait?
A welcome, the story and the people behind the place, the menu or range, news and seasonal offers, house rules, opening hours, directions and reservations.

Upload photos, the menu and a few sentences about the business to Nova AI. Nova AI builds the portrait, and details are added in the editor. The QR code comes with it.
