# Kraft Menus

Kraft menus on 18pt recycled uncoated cover in 4 sizes up to an 11" x 17" tabloid, printed one or both sides with optional white ink, 100 for $166.04.

## Price and options

- Starting price: From $166.04 for 100
- Rating: 4.8 from 5 reviews
- Sizes (4): 8" x 10", 8.5" x 11", 9" x 12", 11" x 17"
- Paper types (1): 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover (100% PCW)
- Configurator options: Ink Color (4), Proof Options (2)

If you have CMYK images on your kraft product, when printing only 4-color, (ie: 4/0, or 4/4), colors will appear different to when printed on a white paper. CMYK images cannot be printed "true to color" on kraft cardstock without using a 5th Color White as a backer to your CMYK images(s). If you are color critical, please make sure to select Optional White Ink (ie: 5/0, or 5/5 if your job has double sided printing).

In addition, if you do not use a 5th Color White, elements in your design that are white will be blank (hence show the brown paper). The paper stock will affect the way that colors appear due to the slightly translucent quality of the ink (you will see the brown paper through the ink, especially in lighter shades). Colors in the orange, yellow, brown spectrum will tend to not be visible as the brown color of the paper will not contrast enough with the ink. This occurs with light and pastel colors as well. Review the information at the link provided before ordering this product.

Kraft paper menu printing at 4OVER4 puts your menu in full color on 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover, a brown sheet made from 100% post-consumer waste, printed on the front or both sides. You choose one of 4 sizes from 8" x 10" to an 11" x 17" tabloid, order from 100 menus for $166.04, and get them in 5 business days as standard.

## Menus That Look Like You Made Them by Hand

Guests expect a bright white card, so a brown kraft menu gets a second look at the table. Kraft menus print on a recycled brown sheet, and a set of 100 starts at $166.04, about $1.66 a menu, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 5 reviews. The 18pt uncoated cover suits a farm-to-table kitchen, a coffee bar, a brewery taproom or a pop-up dinner.

You reprint a menu each time a dish or a price changes, and a kraft reprint matches the last run, because the brown comes from the paper itself rather than from ink. To compare kraft with white, laminated and restaurant menus, browse every option on [menus printing](https://www.4over4.com/menus-printing), or build yours from the choices below.

Four tiers run from 100 menus to 1,000, and a full season of menus costs far less per piece than a test batch for one weekend. Each tier below shows the live set total and what the step up saves.

### What Are Kraft Menus

A kraft menu is a single printed sheet of 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover, a brown, uncoated card made from 100% post-consumer waste, printed full color on the front or on both sides. It comes in 4 sizes, from an 8" x 10" card for a cocktail list up to an 11" x 17" tabloid that holds a full food and drink menu. Farm-to-table kitchens, seasonal specials, coffee bars and pop-up dinners use it when a bright white menu would feel too corporate, and the brown, textured sheet reads handmade. If you want the familiar bright white version of the same product, the [Menus](https://www.4over4.com/product/menus) cover that, and the kraft sits right beside it as the version with a natural, recycled feel.

### What Size Should a Kraft Menu Be

The right size comes down to how much is on the menu. The 8" x 10" default suits a focused list, a cocktail card or a prix fixe menu. An 8.5" x 11", the familiar letter size, gives a full food menu room for sections. A 9" x 12" adds a little more space around the type so a longer list still breathes, and the 11" x 17" tabloid is the statement piece, big enough for a full food and drink menu on a single sheet. The list and the specs panel below show all 4 sizes, the ink setups and the custom-size option. For a durable, wipe-clean menu instead, the [Restaurant Menus](https://www.4over4.com/product/restaurant-menus) and [Laminated Menus](https://www.4over4.com/product/laminated-menus) are the siblings built for heavy handling.

- Sizes: 8" x 10", 8.5" x 11", 9" x 12" or 11" x 17".
- Stock: 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover, 100% post-consumer waste.
- Ink: 4/0 color front, 4/4 color both sides, 5/0 CMYK plus white front, or 5/5 CMYK plus white both sides.
- Quantity: 100, 250, 500 or 1,000 menus.
- Production: 5 business days standard, 2 business day rush.
- Proof: straight to production or a free online proof.
- Files: your own layout on the blank template with the 1/8" bleed, or a menu design template.

### Kraft Menus , Configured Your Way

2 option groups, 6 choices, defaults: 4/0: 4 Color Front; Blank Back

Three choices shape how a kraft menu reads at the table.

#### Add white ink so light colors read

On the brown sheet, pale type and whites sink into the paper, and a cream price column turns hard to read across a table. Pick 5/0 to print CMYK plus white on the front, or 5/5 for both sides, and light colors print solid on the kraft. A white logo or a pale headline stays crisp that way.

#### Match the size to the meal

A short cocktail or coffee list feels right at 8" x 10", while a full dinner menu wants the room of an 8.5" x 11" or 9" x 12". Save the 11" x 17" tabloid for the menu you want guests to notice from across the table. Print the back too when the list runs long, or keep it blank to hold the cost down.

#### Design it without a designer

Start from a professionally built layout in our [menu design templates](https://www.4over4.com/design-templates/menus), then change the dishes, prices and logo in the online editor in minutes. Pick a layout with dark type and wide margins, because the kraft shows wherever you leave the sheet bare.

If you already have a layout, skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. The [blank kraft menu template](https://www.4over4.com/blank-templates/kraft-menus) 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 Kraft Menus Cost

Kraft menus start at $166.04 per 100, about $1.66 a menu, and the per-menu price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 1,000, where each menu works out to $0.83. Count your tables, add spares for the menus that get stained, and set that number on the slider below to read the set total and the per-menu cost.

### Kraft Menus Price By Quantity

100 for $166.04 ( $1.66 each) up to 1,000 for $832.97 ( 83.3¢ each)

- $166.04 $1.66 per unit, 100 100 units 1,000, Up to 50% less per unit at 1,000

### Is the Kraft Stock Really Recycled

Yes. Kraft menus print on one stock only, 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover made from 100% post-consumer waste, and the brown color and slightly toothy feel belong to the paper, with no printed effect. The sheet carries no gloss or coating, so a guest feels the fiber under the fingers. An eco-minded kitchen can print its sourcing notes on a sheet that is itself recycled, and the CMYK plus white ink option keeps light colors sharp on the darker sheet. If you later need a wipeable, water-resistant surface for heavy use, the [Laminated Menus](https://www.4over4.com/product/laminated-menus) carry the same menu into a sealed finish.

### How Fast Can You Get Kraft Menus

Kraft menus print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when a menu launch or a reprint sneaks up you can move that to a 2 business day rush for a set amount on top. Before anything prints, you choose how careful to be with the file: send it straight to production to save a step, or request a free online proof and approve the layout on screen first. 4OVER4 has printed since 1999 with a 99.8% on-time record, and 82% of orders ship early, so the date you pick is the date you can plan around.

## Kraft Menus: Frequently Asked Questions

### What sizes do kraft menus come in?

Four sizes, from 8" x 10" up to an 11" x 17" tabloid, plus a custom size up to 11" x 17". The larger formats hold a full food and drink list, while the smaller ones suit a specials or cocktail card.

### What does a run of menus cost?

100 menus start at $166.04, about $1.66 each, dropping to $0.83 a menu once the run reaches 1,000. Reprinting a seasonal menu gets noticeably cheaper at volume.

### What stock are they printed on?

One stock: 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover made from 100% post-consumer waste. It is a brown, uncoated cover weight, stiff enough to hand to a guest rather than flopping like a sheet of paper.

### Are kraft menus coated or wipeable?

The kraft is uncoated, so it stays matte and natural rather than sealed. That suits a menu you reprint each season more than one that has to survive spills every service.

### Can I print on both sides?

Yes. There are 4 ink setups covering front only and both sides, including a CMYK plus white option so light colors read against the brown sheet.

### How quickly can a menu be reprinted?

Standard turnaround is 5 business days, with a 2 business day rush for a price change or a new dish that cannot wait.
