Implement advanced relational inventory

The Menu entity describes a menu that a restaurant offers to its customers. A Menu entity must be defined within a Restaurant entity through the Restaurant's menuId property.

Other objects that define the menu (such as description, image, add-ons, and nutrition information) include MenuItem and MenuItemOffer, as well as the optional objects MenuSection, Availability, and MenuItemOption.

You can use MenuSection objects to organize multiple MenuItem objects into logical categories. This approach is useful for restaurants that have multiple menus (like breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Add each menu as a separate MenuSection.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Basic menu Use MenuItem, MenuItemOffer, and MenuSection (optional)

The following example matches the "Basic menu" use case with two menu sections ("All day food" and "Drinks"), each containing two menu items:

Time-limited menu

MenuItemOffer objects combined with Availability can be used to create time-limited menu items and menu item options. Use Availability objects to create time-limited menu sections instead.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Time-limited menu section Use Availability to specify the section's availabilityStarts and availabilityEnds time.
Use case 2: Time-limited menu item Use the menuItemId of a MenuItemOffer to specify which MenuItem the offer is linked to. Use Availability to specify the offer's availabilityStarts, availabilityEnds and availabilityDaycode> time.
Use case 3: Multi-offer menu item Use MenuItemOffers menuItemId property and set the availabilityId property to specify the time during which the price is valid.

Customization using add-ons

Menu items can have additional add-on options. Define add-ons for a MenuItem by referencing MenuSection objects with menuAddOnId. Those MenuSection objects must contain the menu items used for your add-ons.

You can provide default add-on MenuItem objects using the defaultOptionId property of the add-on MenuSection object.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Basic add-ons Use an add-on MenuSection object's eligibleQuantityMin and eligibleQuantityMax properties to specify the minimum and maximum number of add-on items that can be selected in the add-on section.
Use case 2: Default add-ons Use an add-on MenuSection object's defaultOptionId to provide default add-on options.
Use case 3: Combo/package meals Use MenuSection objects to describe choices that a user can make when selecting a dish/combo.

JSON

In this example, the "Cappuccino" menu item is customizable with a straw option.

There's one extra add-on option available for the "Mediterranean Bagel" item in the "All day food" menu section as well as two egg add-on options.

The "Club Bagel" item in the same menu section has the same extras add-ons available, plus an "Egg Options" add-on option of scrambled egg.

In the drinks section, there's one item available with a "Milk" add-on option and a "Straw Option" add-on option.

Customization using menu item options

You can provide various options for a MenuItem by referencing it in the menuItemId property of a MenuItemOption.

For example, if pizza is available in different sizes, you can create a MenuItemOption for each size and reference the pizza menu item in the menuItemId property for each MenuItemOption.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Pizza with different sizes Use MenuItemOption and MenuItemOffer
Use case 2: Customizable pizza with different toppings and sizes Use MenuItemOption and MenuItemOffer to change the topping prices based on the pizza size.
Use case 3: Customizable pizza with differences between left and right sides Use the value property of a MenuItemOption to specify the side of a pizza. Use the price and priceCurrency properties of MenuItemOffer to specify the price per pizza side.

Service

The Service entity defines the delivery of a food ordering Action from a restaurant, such as the service type. The hours of service, area served, and fees are described in the ServiceArea, ServiceHours, OperationHours, and Fee entities.

One Restaurant can define multiple Service objects (for example, if a restaurant supports both delivery and takeout services), but one Service should be uniquely connected to a single Restaurant by the Service's serviceType property.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Basic delivery service Use opens and closes properties in ServiceHours and OperationHours to specify the start and end time in which a user can fulfill (complete) an order and place an order, respectively. To specify the delivery lead time (the estimated time of pickup/delivery), use the leadTimeMin and leadTimeMax properties of ServiceHours.

JSON

The following sample Service accepts orders everyday from 8 AM-6 PM (latest order can be placed at 5:59:59pm) from Feburary 1st 2016 to March 1st 2016, and delivers with a minimum wait time of 1 hour and maximum wait time for 90 minutes. The delivery service is provided in the zipcode 94041 in the US. There is a $5 delivery charge for the user.

Holiday and special hours

You can use the isSpecialHour property of ServiceHours and OperationHours to override existing service hours and/or operation hours. This approach lets you define regular hours of operation once, and selectively override it for holidays and special events.

There are two separate time windows that you must specify for service fulfillment: the ordering window (OperationHours, specifies when users can place an order) and the fulfillment window (ServiceHours, specifies when the order can be fulfilled).

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Open for same-day orders but closed for advanced orders To specify the dates for which the special hours are valid, use the validFrom and validThrough properties of the ServiceHours and OperationHours entities (with isSpecialHour property set to "true").

JSON

This example specifies that the service is open for same-day orders on Christmas day but is closed for orders in advance scheduled for that day. The restaurant accepts ASAP and orders in advance for pickup services.

Regular pickup hours (including both order and service hours) are from 9 AM to 9 PM and Christmas Eve of 2017 pickup hours are from 9 AM to 4 PM. Pickup has a minimum wait time of 1 hour and maximum wait time of 90 minutes. Users can place orders from 2 days in advance (2880 minutes) to 30 minutes in advance for any day, but cannot place an order on closed days/hours (like Christmas day, July 4th, and after 4pm on Christmas Eve). Users can only place pickup orders in advance in increments of 15 min (for example, 2:00 PM, 2:15 PM, 2:30 PM).

There is no pickup charge for the user. This example supports the following scenarios:

  • Users can make an order on December 25th for same day delivery.
  • Users can make an advance order on December 25th for delivery scheduled for December 27th.
  • Users cannot make an order in advance on December 22nd for delivery scheduled on December 25th.
  • Users can neither make an advance nor ASAP order on July 4th.

Dynamic delivery fees

The examples below outline how to define the fees for a delivery service that depend on different factors, such as region, time of day, and number of items.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Delivery fee by region and distance Use the eligibleRegion property of Fee to specify the region and the price and priceCurrency properties to specify the price.
Use case 2: Delivery fee by time Use the validFrom and validThrough properties of Fee to specify the time during which the delivery fee is valid.
Use case 3: Free delivery above and order amount Use the eligibleTransactionVolumeMin and eligibleTransactionVolumeMax properties of Fee to specify the minimum and maximum cart value associated with the delivery price.

Delivery service areas

The examples below outline how to define the available service areas of a delivery service.

Use case Best practice
Use case 1: Service area definition

Use ServiceArea to define the geographical region in which food can be delivered.
Use case 2: You have a Polygon service area.
Use case 3: You have one service area, but you don't service a smaller area within it.
Use case 4: You have multiple service areas. Create multiple ServiceArea entities to represent your service areas.

JSON

The restaurant supports delivery services to different service areas. The service areas can be defined by polygon shape, ZIP code, or circles.

Deleting and disabling entities

You can remove entities from your service that you no longer want Google to expose to users. This process is useful if you need to inform Google that a restaurant or service has permanently or temporarily closed.

Remove entities

To remove an entity, delete it from your feeds; this has an SLA of 2 hours. To reintroduce an entity, add it back in your feeds.

Remove service entities temporarily

You can also temporarily disable a Service entity for either a specific or an undefined time period.

Disabling one for a specific time period is useful if you want to enable users to place orders in advance but disable immediate orders within a given time period (such as during a holiday).

Disabling a Service entity for an undefined time period is useful if you want to disable users from placing both orders in advance and immediate orders until some unspecified future date.

Temporarily disabling a service involves updating the feed files directly as you would with a permanent removal.

Use the techniques below to disable or override hours for a Service during a pre-defined time period.

  • To temporarily suspend a Service entity for a specific time period that is known ahead of time (for example, holiday hours), use the OperationHours and ServiceHours entities.

    Create a new ServiceHours entity with the isSpecialHour attribute to true. The validFrom and validThrough attributes are required to specify the time values when the special hours are valid. Set opens and closes times to "00:00". The service will automatically resume following the hours from the regular hours ServiceHours entity once outside of the validFrom and validThrough values of the special hours entity.

    {
  "@type":"ServiceHours",
  "@id":"delivery_1_service_hours_holiday",
  "orderType":"ASAP",
  "serviceId":"delivery_1",
  "operationHoursId":"delivery_1_op_hours",
  "opens":"00:00",
  "closes":"00:00",
  "validFrom":"2022-12-25T00:00:00-05:00",
  "validThrough":"2022-12-26T00:00:00-05:00",
  "leadTimeMin":"20",
  "leadTimeMax":"20",
  "isSpecialHour":true
}

  • To temporarily remove a Service entity for an undefined time period, set its isDisabled property to "true". To re-enable, remove the property from your entity or set the value to "false".

    Note that you should only use the isDisabled property when you don't know when the service will be re-established. For example, use it for unexpected events and don't use it for holidays).
