What Final Menu is
Final Menu is web software for tracking restaurant ingredient costs and calculating recipe costs and menu margins. It can read invoice PDFs or photos and extract ingredients and prices for review before saving. Recipe costing is calculated per serving, with yields and prep times available to track. Users can choose gross profit margin, food cost percentage, cost-plus markup, or cost multiplier pricing methods. After a new invoice is reviewed and saved, Final Menu recalculates affected recipe costs and keeps ingredient cost history and trends as supplier prices change. Invoices and recipes can be uploaded, or users can take phone photos of documents. CSV imports and exports support moving recipes, costs, and prices to major POS systems; the site also names spreadsheets and accounting tools as export destinations. The company says data is encrypted in transit and at rest and proprietary recipes or pricing information are not shared with third parties. The free plan allows up to 10 recipes. Professional costs $99.00 per month and includes unlimited recipes and AI invoice processing. A 14-day trial is offered with no credit card required.
