Displaying Your OpenMenu in Facebook

The Facebook application OpenMenu Tab makes it a breeze to add a Menu tab to your restaurant’s Facebook page powered by your OpenMenu.

note: OpenMenu Tab (and other Facebook Apps) will only work on business type pages as Facebook removed the ability to add tabs to personal pages. Also, OpenMenu Tab must be setup by the page creator from a desktop computer (mobile device will not work).

Follow these simple steps:

1. Add OpenMenu Tab to Your Restaurant’s Page (must be logged in as the Admin of your restaurant’s page.  note: some users have experienced problems with the Chrome browser and not allowing this link to open (trying in IE / Firefox or disabling any popup blocker should work)
