Allergen filters
Guests choose the allergens to avoid and everything else adjusts around them.
Digital allergen menu
A digital menu every guest can eat from.
Guests filter by allergen, diet, and calories and see only what works for them. It updates the moment your menu does and works on any phone.
The short version
A digital allergen menu lets guests filter your menu by allergens, diets, and calories so they can find dishes that suit them without waiting for a server. Honeycomb's version runs on your website or a shareable link, updates instantly, and can be translated into more languages.

- Server-rendered HTML so search engines and AI crawlers can read every dish.
- A plain text llms.txt and an AGENTS.md for each restaurant.
- Diet rules are evaluated against each dish's allergen data.
- Embeddable on your own site, with analytics events for filter use.
Developers can start at the API overview or read llms.txt and AGENTS.md.
