Why would you need quick access to one restaurant’s menu?

If you go there infrequently, I don’t understand why you would clutter up any part of my phone - bookmarks or Home Screen - with its menu. If you go there frequently… you already know the menu?

For most places, but there are a handful that have huge menus. Its name escapes me but for instance when I lived in SF there was a sandwich place I frequented that was one such shop and aside from a couple of favorites I could never remember everything they had.

Also, these sites tend to facilitate ordering ahead, ordering delivery etc too so it’s not just a static HTML file.

Also if they have online menus or ordering they usually have a QR code on the table or nearby. No need to bookmark or save anywhere.
