The daily menu
Show today’s short menu and prices in one view so the line can decide before reaching the window.
TV menus for food trucks
Run a daily menu and event specials from a screen that survives the truck — not the office.
Use a TV at the service window for the daily menu, event specials, and one clear message customers can read before they reach the counter.
If the service-window TV has compatible Google TV built in, install TVMenus directly with no separate player box.
Choose outdoor-rated screens that stay readable in direct sun and survive the drive from event to event.
Plan a battery and power setup that runs your display through a full service window without a generator hum.
Update the daily menu and event-specific specials from a phone — before the line forms.
Your first screen
Make one menu image before the next event.
Create a 1920 × 1080 daily menu in Canva, PowerPoint, or Google Slides. Keep it bright, high-contrast, and short enough to read from the line.
- 1
Create the image
Use Canva, PowerPoint, Google Slides, or any image editor.
- 2
Upload it
Export a PNG or JPG, then add it to TVMenus.
- 3
Choose the TV
Pair the screen, select the image, and publish.
For outdoor use, screen brightness and weather protection matter as much as the image. Test the real TV in daylight.
BT
Event specials
Swap in a festival-specific offer, catering message, or high-margin combo without rebuilding the whole menu.
DM
Same-day changes
Change an item or price from a phone before the next customer reaches the window — no laptop in the truck.
Why TVMenus fits food truck operations
Reliable playback when the office is a truck and the network is a hotspot.
Offline playback so a weak hotspot does not take the menu down mid-event.
Daily menu swaps from a phone with no laptop in the truck.
Device health and screenshot capture so you can confirm the screen is live before pulling up to the event.
