Split-flap displays for restaurants & cafes

Your menu deserves more
than a chalkboard.

Daily specials, breakfast-to-dinner menu switches, today’s soup — all flipping automatically on the screen above your counter. Set it in the morning. Forget it.

A real mechanical split‑flap board starts at $15,000. Split‑Flap TV works on the screen you already own — less than $25/month.

The problem

Rewriting the specials board every day is nobody’s job.

It falls to whoever arrives first. The handwriting is rushed. Half the board is erased and rewritten by noon. Customers squint at it from two tables away. A printed menu costs money every time it changes. A real split‑flap board costs $15,000. None of these are good answers. Split‑Flap TV lets you update your entire board from your phone in 30 seconds — including scheduled switches from breakfast to lunch to dinner, automatically, every day.

What to display

What restaurant and cafe owners display.

Daily specials board

Starter, main, dessert — today’s specials in classic split‑flap style. Update from the kitchen the moment something sells out.

Scheduled menu switch

Breakfast menu from 7am, lunch from 11:30am, dinner from 5pm. Automatic, every day. Set it once on day one.

Today’s soup

The single most-asked question in any cafe. Display it prominently and watch staff get asked half as often.

Opening hours

Visible from the street on a window-facing screen. No more questions from people peering in after hours.

Table wait time

Display current estimated wait for walk-ins. Reduces frustration and keeps people in the queue instead of leaving.

Live weather & forecast

Guests decide inside or outside based on the weather. Show the forecast automatically on a secondary board row.

“We updated our specials board three times in one lunch service from my phone. The old chalkboard would have taken 15 minutes each time.”
