Restaurant menu printing in the Inland Empire

Design your dine-in or takeout menu, table tents and placemats, then send the job for a quote or order online. Here's what printers will ask you, and what to sort out first.

Local shops in Inland Empire: none approved yet. The network is just starting, so requests go to our team first. There's no guarantee a local shop will quote, and we'll tell you about other options.

Restaurants, cafés, food trucks and caterers across Riverside and San Bernardino counties design their menus on CatalogProFlow, then print them however suits them: through a local shop, through our online print partner, or on a printer they already use.

Our local print network in the Inland Empire is just starting, so we don't list any shops here yet. You can still send a quote request: it goes to our team, and we'll pass it to approved shops that print menus in your area as they join.

Who orders this in the Inland Empire

  • Independent restaurants and cafés

    Dine-in menus that get handled every day, and reprints whenever prices change.

  • Takeout and delivery

    Tri-fold menus for the counter, bags and door-to-door drops.

  • Food trucks and pop-ups

    Menus and price boards that cope with sun, wind and a lot of handling.

  • Bars, taprooms and coffee shops

    Table tents for specials and QR codes, coasters and placemats.

What to prepare before you ask for a quote

  1. Menu type and size

    Single-page 8.5 × 11 in, a taller 8.5 × 14 in, or a tri-fold takeout menu. Each prices differently, so decide before asking.

  2. How many of each version

    Dine-in and takeout menus are often printed in different quantities. If you change prices often, a smaller run you can redo is usually better than a big one.

  3. Paper and finish

    Dine-in menus are usually printed on heavier card; ask whether the shop offers lamination or wipe-clean synthetic paper if menus will be cleaned between guests.

  4. One or two sides, and any folding

    Double-sided printing and folding (for tri-folds) add steps the shop needs to quote.

  5. The date you need them

    An opening day or a price change date. Tell the shop up front so the quote reflects any rush.

  6. Final, proofread prices

    A wrong price is the most common menu reprint. Check every item before you send the file.

  7. Print-ready artwork

    A PDF at the final size with bleed. Our checklist covers bleed, safe margins and resolution.

Common menu formats

Turnaround and proofs

Turnaround depends on the shop, the quantity and the finishing. Flat prints are generally quicker than jobs that need lamination, folding or specialty stock, so mention finishing when you ask for a quote.

Leave time to approve a proof before the run. It's the cheapest way to catch a wrong price or a missing dish.

If your prices change often, consider shorter print runs, or showing part of the menu on a TV menu board that you edit without reprinting.

Good to know in the Inland Empire

Part of a chain with 20 or more locations? Calories go on the menu

Federal menu labeling rules cover restaurants that are part of a chain with 20 or more locations operating under the same name and offering substantially the same menu. They must show calories next to each standard menu item and include two statements: that additional nutrition information is available on request, and that 2,000 calories a day is used for general nutrition advice. San Bernardino County's Environmental Health Services publishes a one-page summary. If you're not sure whether you're covered, ask your county's environmental health department before printing.

Pickup or delivery across two big counties

The Inland Empire covers Riverside and San Bernardino counties, so distance matters when a shop prices pickup or delivery. Give the ZIP code where you want the menus delivered or where you'd pick them up, and say if either is fine.

Questions

Are there approved print shops for menus in the Inland Empire on CatalogProFlow?

Not yet. Our local print network is just starting, and no shop in the Inland Empire has been approved so far. If you send a quote request now, it goes to our team; if approved shops that print menus start serving your ZIP code, we can pass it on to them. Meanwhile you can design online and order prints where our online print partner offers the product, or download a print-ready PDF for a printer you already use.

Can I order printed menus online instead?

Where our online print partner offers a menu format, you can order it from the editor and have it printed and shipped to you; delivery options and the final price are shown at checkout. Each product page says whether ordering is available. If it isn't, you can download a print-ready PDF (with Pro or a one-time download).

What file should I give a printer?

A PDF at the final trim size with bleed on every edge and text kept inside the safe margin. CatalogProFlow menu templates are built at the right size with bleed and a safe area. Our print-ready file checklist explains each point.
