Illustrative green and cream folded table talkers with Today’s Special wording on a restaurant table.
Table-talker layout examples. Format, dimensions, construction and supplied form are agreed for your job.

Give one message a clear place

A table talker works best when the main point is easy to find: a seasonal special, a short promotion, an event or a booking message.

Choose the headline and the one action or detail the reader needs next. Keep the wording brief enough to read where the display will sit, rather than shrinking a full menu into a small panel.

Supply your approved offer wording, dates and any prices. Decide which information stays on the table and which belongs in a menu or another piece of guest information.

Make drinks and service information easy to follow

Arrange the main choice or instruction so customers can recognise it without having to search through a crowded layout.

Consider the viewing distance and the space around the display. A heading that reads clearly on a large screen may need a simpler layout at the actual printed size.

Use approved images and wording that describe your own business. For longer lists, explore our menu and price-list printing rather than forcing everything into one small display.

An insert for a holder you already have

If you are updating an existing holder, send its usable insert width and height or bring the holder to the shop.

Check the area that remains visible once the insert is in place. Tell us whether the front and back need different artwork, and whether the holder is used upright or in a landscape orientation.

This option concerns the printed insert. Do not assume a clear holder, stand or base is included; identify any separate requirement when asking for your quotation.

Discuss the folded format before designing the panels

For a folded paper format, agree the panel count, finished size, base and assembly requirements before the artwork is finalised.

Tell us where it will be displayed and which sides need to carry a message. The paper, construction and supplied form are confirmed for the job, rather than inferred from a display illustration.

Include the quantity for each version and the date needed. A sample or clear reference helps explain the format you have in mind.

Check the proof at the intended size

Review the message, spelling, dates, prices, logo and image placement on every panel. Check the front and back, orientation, panel order and agreed fold positions.

Read the main information at the distance customers are likely to see it. Keep essential details clear of the holder edge, folds and planned trim.

If a QR code is part of your approved artwork, confirm its destination and check it on the final-size proof. Confirm dimensions and the agreed specification before approving print.

Your table-talker questions

Can you print an insert for my existing holder?

Send the usable width and height, or bring the actual holder, so an insert can be specified for it.

Is a holder included?

The insert option is for the printed piece. Any holder, stand, base or assembly arrangement needs separate confirmation in the quotation.

Can the front and back have different messages?

Tell us which message belongs on each side or panel, and how the piece will be displayed, so the artwork and printing can be agreed.

Can you help with the layout?

Yes. Send your approved wording, logo and images, and explain the intended use. Artwork preparation is quoted for the work needed.

What do I need for a quotation?

Send the quantity, versions, intended use, holder dimensions or folded-format reference, artwork requirements and required date.

Get a table-talker printing quote

Tell us what the display needs to say, where it will sit and how many you need. Include your holder dimensions or folded-format reference, artwork and required date. We will discuss the specification and confirm the quotation and completion date for your job.
