A busy hospitality scene
Clapham is known for its bars and restaurants and for Clapham Common, with a young professional crowd and a busy calendar of local events. For a venue in that mix, print isn't a one-off: menus change, events come and go and little details shape the guest experience.
Menus that cope with real use
Menus get handled, spilled on and read in low light. Laminated menus can be wiped clean and last longer, while paper menus are cheaper and easy to update. If your menu changes often, consider a paper insert inside a reusable cover. Our guides cover menu design and laminated versus standard menus.
Coasters and table items
Coasters are one of the most handled branded items in a bar. Choose a material that copes with moisture, and keep the design simple, since there's limited space. Table cards are useful for specials, events and QR codes to an online menu.
Tickets and event nights
Quiz nights, live music and tasting events sell better with simple printed tickets or wristbands, and posters in the window and on local noticeboards. Keep the date, time and price big and clear. Numbered tickets can help control capacity.
Posters and flyers
A poster in the window should work from across the street: one bold line, one date and one image. Flyers and postcards on the bar or at nearby businesses can pull in extra footfall. Our window poster guide helps.
Keep a reorder list
Once your menu and branding are settled, keep the artwork files on record so reorders match. For seasonal changes, update the file rather than starting from scratch.
