Providing accurate restaurant menu prices requires a structured and consistent process. Below is an overview of how we gather, review, and update our data.
1. Primary Data Sources
We collect menu pricing information from:
- Official restaurant websites
- Official published menu PDFs
- Verified franchise location listings
- Publicly available brand resources
We prioritize official sources whenever available to ensure accuracy.
2. Verification Process
Before publishing or updating a menu page, we:
- Cross-check pricing across available official sources
- Confirm consistency within menu sections
- Review historical versions when necessary to detect changes
- Record the latest verification date
Each update goes through a manual review to ensure formatting accuracy and completeness.
3. Update Frequency
Because restaurants frequently adjust pricing, we follow a structured review schedule:
- High-traffic restaurant pages: reviewed monthly
- Moderate-traffic pages: reviewed quarterly
- Seasonal or limited-time menus: reviewed as needed
When significant price adjustments are detected, we update the page accordingly.
4. Handling Regional Price Differences
Many restaurant chains operate on a franchise model, meaning prices can vary by location.
To address this:
- We present national average pricing when possible
- We clearly state that local prices may vary
- We encourage visitors to confirm with their local restaurant
5. Historical Price Tracking
Where archived menu data is available, we document previous price points to help illustrate pricing trends over time.
This allows visitors to understand how menu pricing evolves due to factors such as:
- Inflation
- Supply chain costs
- Brand strategy changes
Our goal is to expand this historical tracking over time.
6. Transparency & Limitations
While we work diligently to maintain accuracy, pricing may change before updates are reflected on our site.
We welcome user feedback to help identify discrepancies and ensure continued reliability.
