Can I upload a menu photo or PDF to Google instead of typing it?
Updated 3 October 2026
Yes. Google lets you upload a menu photo or PDF and uses AI to turn it into sections, items, descriptions and prices.
- The full menu must fit on one page and be captured in one photo.
- Changes can take 24 to 48 hours to show on Maps and Search.
- A menu link is separate from menu items you enter on Google.
- Menu links cannot be direct links to third-party ordering or delivery services.
