Digital menu boards for restaurants
Menus that switch from brunch to dinner on their own, specials you update from the pass, and screens that earn from local advertisers when you're closed.
Daypart Menu Switcher
Brunch until 2, happy hour at 4, dinner at 5:30. Build each menu once, schedule it on the weekly grid, and the boards change themselves — every day, on the dot.

Sold out of the special? Pull it from the screen in seconds from the phone in your apron pocket — before the next table orders it and gets disappointed.
High-Margin Spotlight
The dishes you want ordered more get the biggest, brightest slots. Rotate appetizers, cocktails, and desserts with per-item timing — a quiet upsell running all service.
Multi-Screen Line-Up
Menu boards over the counter, specials by the door, the bar screen running cocktails. Each screen has its own content and schedule, all managed from one dashboard with live status.
Off-Hours Ad Revenue
Your screens face the street even when the kitchen's closed. Local businesses book those hours through the PiAds marketplace — you approve every ad and keep 70%.
The only signage that pays you back
Restaurant screens work long hours — including hours when you're not selling. PiAds' built-in local ad marketplace fills the gaps you choose with paid spots from neighborhood businesses. You approve everything, schedule when ads may run, and keep 70% of each booking. The menu board becomes a second till.
Built for restaurant owners and managers, not IT teams
Digital signage for restaurants, answered
Can menus change automatically between breakfast, lunch, and dinner?
Yes — that's the core of it. One playlist per daypart, scheduled on the weekly grid; the boards switch on your clock, every day, without anyone touching them.
How fast can I remove a sold-out item?
Seconds. Edit from any phone or laptop and every board you choose updates immediately.
What hardware do menu boards need?
Any TV plus a Fire TV Stick (PiAds runs natively), Android device, or Raspberry Pi. For a multi-screen menu wall, Pi players give you 24/7 reliability.
Can I design menus in Canva?
Yes — design at 1920×1080, export, and drop into the playlist. Update the design any time and the boards refresh in seconds.
Will ads show during dinner service?
Only if you allow it. You control ad windows completely — many restaurants run ads only during off-hours or on the street-facing screen.
What does it cost per board?
$0 for participating screens that enable approved marketplace ad slots. Restaurants keep 70% of cleared ad revenue.
What if the internet goes down during service?
Boards keep playing cached menus and re-sync when the connection returns. Service never sees it.
Can my manager update it without me?
Yes — invite your team, and anyone you trust can update specials and menus from their own login.
