What is the best way to upsell menu items?

Familiarizing yourself with promotions and suggesting related items is an effective way to upsell menu items because it creates a more engaging experience for the customer. When you know the current promotions, you can highlight value-added options that may interest the customer. Suggesting related items allows you to present complementary choices that enhance the meal and improve the overall dining experience.

For example, if a customer orders a burger, suggesting a side of fries or a drink that complements the burger can lead to higher sales and satisfaction. This method not only increases the average transaction value but also shows customers that you are attentive to their needs and preferences. This approach builds rapport and trust, making customers more likely to consider your suggestions.
