What paper stock works best for restaurant menus?

Menus get handled constantly, so durability matters as much as looks. Coated or laminated stocks survive nightly service.

• Glossy and silk finishes resist fingerprints and shrug off minor spills.
• Lamination adds the most protection and makes menus wipeable for repeated use.
• Uncoated textured stock looks beautiful for rustic or eco-friendly brands but wears faster and reprints sooner.
• Thicker stock feels premium in the hand and resists curling from moisture.
