QR codes devalue a restaurant

If there is one trend we are happily burying in 2026, it is the QR Code menu at dinner. The pendulum has swung. Top-tier venues across Sydney and Melbourne are bringing back the heavy, leather-bound menu and the waiter who actually knows the specials.


Why We Hate The QR Code Menu


Service is the new luxury. We are actively deprioritizing venues that force members to order via a generic web app.

If you’re paying premium prices, you deserve premium human interaction.


  • The ECSC Verdict: Amen.

  • We support venues that invest in floor staff. It’s the difference between a "feed" and "hospitality."
