Hero images
- Show at least five different dishes, so customers see the range of your menu.
- Let the food fill most of the frame, with only a small margin at the edges.
- Keep it food-first: the main dish in the centre, no text-heavy graphics or large logos.
Menu item images
- Keep the dish centred and show the whole plate.
- Use natural light to avoid reflections and dark shadows.
Common reasons photos get rejected
- Hands or faces in the shot.
- Text or watermarks.
- Raw ingredients scattered around the dish.
- AI-generated images. Deliveroo only allows authentic photos of your food.
Why it's worth doing
Deliveroo's Hub measures Menu Completeness, based on items with photos and descriptions. Deliveroo also offers a professional photography service for partners. For how to take the photos with just a phone, see food photos for delivery apps. If you'd rather know which photos would make the biggest difference first, send us your listing.
