Menu Board Easels — Wooden Menu Stands for Hospitality
A menu board easel is a display stand sized around hospitality use: tall enough to read at a door, wide enough for a menu layout, and stable enough to stand on a pavement outside a cafe or inside a restaurant where staff move past it. In this catalogue the group is deliberately narrow - it is not a menu-printing service and it is not a restaurant fit-out catalogue - and the models are wooden A-frames with a chalkboard or a blank panel sized for a menu.
The trade questions are the same as the sign group with one addition: the viewing distance. A menu board read from two metres needs a taller stand and a larger panel than a price card read at arm's length, and the folded thickness still has to suit storage. The records here give open height and panel size per model, and the pages state plainly that printed menus and inserts are the buyer's side of the job.

What buyers check first
- Check the panel size against the reading distance: a menu read at a doorway needs a bigger panel than a counter card.
- Confirm whether the panel is chalkboard or blank, and whether it is single or double-sided.
- Ask for the folded thickness and the weight, because a restaurant moves the boards twice a day.
- Check the stay and the hinge again - hospitality use is the hardest daily cycle in the display range.

FAQ — Menu Board Easels
What size menu board easel do restaurants buy?
Most hospitality buyers want a stand of roughly 90-120 cm with a panel large enough for six to ten lines of menu text, and a second smaller board for a counter or a specials card. The open height and the panel size are stated per model in this group, so the pair can be chosen together. The wider stand is read from further away but takes more floor and storage; the taller narrow stand fits a doorway and reads at close range.
Does the easel come with a printed menu?
No. The models here are the wooden stand and, depending on the model, a chalkboard or a blank panel. Printed menus, printed inserts and vinyl graphics are the buyer's side of the job, and this site does not offer a print or framing service. What the pages do give is the panel size and the rebate where it is recorded, so a printed insert can be sized to the frame before the boards are ordered.
