Gallery & Menu Photos

Visual content is what makes customers choose your restaurant over competitors. Use this sub-page to upload your best photos.

Three Types of Images

1. Cover Image

The hero image shown on:

  • Your listing card in search results
  • The header of your detail page

Recommended size: 1200 ร— 630 px (landscape) Format: JPG, PNG, or WebP Max size: 8MB

Pick an image that:

  • Shows your best angle (exterior, dining room, signature dish)
  • Has good lighting
  • Doesn't have text overlays or watermarks

2. Gallery Images

Multiple images that customers can swipe through on your detail page. Show:

  • Interior shots (dining room, bar, outdoor seating)
  • Signature dishes
  • Chef at the desk
  • Special features (dish presentation, ambience)

Format: JPG, PNG, or WebP Max size: 8MB per image Quantity: Upload as many as you want (we recommend at least 3-5)

3. Menu Photos

Photos of your physical menu pages (paper menu, board menu, etc.).

Why upload these?

  • Customers can see your full menu before visiting
  • Helps with pre-ordering for delivery
  • Shows customers you have variety

Tip: Make sure the photos are clear and readable. Blurry menu photos frustrate customers.
