Menu Categories or Groups are the primary containers for organizing your dishes, making them tidy and easy for customers to find. Think of these categories as chapters in a menu book; by grouping items like "Main Courses", "Beverages", or "Snacks", customers won't struggle to find their favorite dishes when ordering online. Smart grouping speeds up customer selection and helps kitchen operations stay structured.
