The Card That Brings Guests Back
A restaurant postcard is the rare piece of marketing a guest actually takes with them. Print a grand-opening announcement, a new seasonal menu, a happy-hour deal, or a loyalty offer, then hand it over at the counter, drop it in a to-go bag, leave it on a table, or mail it to the neighborhood. Full color front and back, on a stock that feels like your restaurant, it does the work of getting people back through the door. A set of 50 starts at $16.48, with a perfect 5.0 out of 5 rating across 10 reviews.
These cards earn their keep. They cost cents to print, they fit anywhere from a takeout bag to a mailbox, and one clear offer on the front is all it takes to pull a guest back. Want to see how they sit next to the rest of the range? Browse every style on postcards printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 50 starts at $16.48, and the per-postcard cost keeps sliding as the count climbs, so a full mailing for a grand opening costs far less per card than a quick test batch.

What Is a Restaurant Postcard?
A restaurant postcard is a full-color card printed on one or both sides in 14 sizes, from a 2.5" x 2.5" card up to a 6" x 11" jumbo mailer, on any of 22 stocks. Restaurants reach for them to announce a grand opening, drop a seasonal menu, run a coupon or a happy-hour deal, hand out a loyalty card, or remind the block that takeout and delivery are on. Because a postcard is quick to read and easy to keep, the offer lands and the guest acts. If you want the classic rectangle format, the Standard Postcards cover that, and this version comes ready with the sizes and stocks a food business tends to want.
What Size Should a Restaurant Postcard Be?
The right size comes down to how the card gets used. A 2.5" x 2.5" or 3" x 3" card works as a table insert, a bag stuffer, or a loyalty card small enough to keep in a wallet. A 3" x 4" or 4" x 4" reads like a proper coupon, with room for a food photo and a headline. And when you want the card to land in a mailbox and get noticed, the 6" x 11" jumbo gives you space for a full menu, an offer, and a map. There are 14 sizes in all, plus a custom size to order up to 6" x 11", and the price follows the size you pick. All the sizes, both finishes, and the full stock list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them.
Here are a few easy ways to make a restaurant postcard pull its weight.
Pick a stock that fits the room
A heavier coated stock gives the card real presence in the hand. The default 14pt Gloss Cover keeps it clean and photo-friendly, 100# silk or matte reads softer with no glare, and 14pt or 18pt uncoated takes a pen when a guest fills in a punch or a note. There are recycled stocks too, including a 13pt 100% post-consumer option, and the metallic pearl covers in Ice, Champagne, Silver, and Gold catch light like foil for an upscale menu. A High-Gloss UV Coating makes a plated-food photo snap, and 15pt synthetic plastic or 18pt rigid PVC shrugs off a busy counter. You can also round the corners at a 1/8" or 3/8" radius.
Put a QR code to work
A restaurant postcard is a perfect frame for a QR code. Print your offer or menu photo on the front, drop a scannable code on the back, and the card sends the guest straight to your online menu, your ordering page, or a reservation. Pair it with variable data and every card can carry its own code, so a loyalty run or a coupon batch ships with a unique link on each one.
Design it without a designer
You do not need a design background to make a restaurant postcard look sharp. Start from one of thousands of free, professionally built layouts in our postcard design templates, then change the colors, copy, and photos in the online editor in minutes. Swap in your dish, your offer, and your logo, and the layout does the rest.
Already have your artwork? Skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. Each blank restaurant postcard template is built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the cut. Grab the size that matches your order below, drop your art in, and upload.

How Much Do Restaurant Postcards Cost?
Restaurant postcards start at $16.48 per set of 50, and the per-postcard price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 100,000, so a cheap postcard really comes down to how big a run you order. An 800-card run is $73.60, 7,000 run $176.61, and a 25,000-card mailing is $491.20, with the per-card cost landing near 1.7 cents at the top of the ladder. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-postcard cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Can You Print a Name or Code on Each Postcard?
Yes. Turn on variable data and you can drop a unique name, a serial number, or a one-off code onto every card in the run, so each one ships personalized instead of identical. That turns a restaurant postcard into a numbered loyalty card, a coupon where every code is different, or a mailer addressed to one guest. It is the easiest way to make a batch feel made for each person. Pair it with full color on both sides and a finish that fits, and a small card starts doing the work of something much larger.
How Do Restaurant Postcards Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Restaurant postcards are the value pick when you want a printed offer in every guest's hand, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a metallic-foil upgrade or a smaller card, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up restaurant postcards against their closest siblings, including the Metallic Foil Postcards and the pocket-sized Mini Cards, so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
