What to put on a restaurant stamp
Restaurant stamps are about recognition and speed, so keep each one short. Choose the fields that fit the job instead of putting everything on one design.
Restaurant name
The name as customers know it, in a font close to your signage.
Example: The Copper Pot
Logo or symbol
A simplified version of your logo reads better at stamp size. Thin lines and gradients disappear on kraft paper.
Example: One-color fork and flame mark
Tagline or cuisine
A few words for the bottom arc of a round stamp.
Example: Wood-fired kitchen
Address and ordering line
Useful on takeaway bags and menus so customers can order again.
Example: 21 Harbor Street · Orders 555-0142
Date and initials
For prep labels and order slips: blank spaces to write in by hand.
Example: Prepared: ___/___ · By: ____
Business and tax details
Where local rules ask for a registration or tax number on receipts, put it on a separate receipt stamp, not on the logo.
Example: Copper Pot Restaurant Ltd. · Tax No. 123456789
Stamps a restaurant uses
Most restaurants end up with a small set of stamps, each made for one job. Paste the sample wording into the editor and adapt it.
THE COPPER POT
• WOOD-FIRED KITCHEN •
Harbor Street
Prep date label
For prep containers: what it is, when it was made, by whom and a use-by line. Start from our date stamp templates and leave space to write.
Sample wording
PREPARED ON
Item: ______________
Date: ___/___ Time: _____
Use by: ___/___ By: ____
Receipt and invoice stamp
Adds your business name, address and tax number to handwritten receipts or supplier paperwork where local rules require them.
Sample wording
COPPER POT RESTAURANT LTD.
21 Harbor Street, Springfield
Tax No. 123456789
PAID · Cash / Card
Size, shape and ink for restaurant stamps
Kraft paper, corrugated board and napkins soak up ink, so design for rough surfaces.
Shape
Round logo stamps look natural on bags and boxes. Rectangular stamps suit order slips, receipts and prep labels, where text reads in lines.
Size
Loyalty card marks: about 12 to 18 mm. Order and receipt stamps: around 40 × 15 mm to 58 × 22 mm. Bag and box logos: 40 to 60 mm, larger for pizza boxes.
Ink color
One solid color prints most reliably. Black, brown or deep red show well on kraft; your brand color works on white. The aging effect gives menus and social posts a hand-stamped look.
Line weight
Thick strokes and open spaces survive absorbent paper. Remove tiny text and hairline borders, then test the stamp on the real bag or box.
Logo colors
Keep your logo’s original colors for digital menus and online ordering pages, and use a single ink color for anything that becomes a rubber stamp.
Where restaurants use stamps
One design can be exported for paper, packaging and screens.
Takeaway and delivery packaging
Stamp plain bags, boxes, cup sleeves and napkins instead of ordering fully printed stock. Our tips on packaging stamp design help with small runs.
Menus and vouchers
Drop the transparent PNG into printed menus, table cards, gift vouchers and online ordering pages.
Kitchen prep and storage
Prep-date stamps on labels or masking tape help staff rotate stock, first in, first out. Our food batch-date stamp layouts show a clear field order.
Deliveries and receipts
Mark supplier delivery notes as received and customer bills as paid, so the office can match paperwork later.
How to make your restaurant stamp
Step 1
Choose a layout
Click a logo, business or date template above, or start the editor with a blank stamp.
Step 2
Add your name and logo
Type the restaurant name on the top arc and a tagline below, then upload your logo or pick a built-in icon.
Step 3
Adjust for the surface
Set the size in millimeters, the border and the ink color. Thicken thin lines for kraft paper or napkins.
Step 4
Export
Preview for free, then download a transparent PNG at 1x, 3x or 10x, or SVG, EPS and PDF for a printer or stamp maker.
Frequently asked questions
What size should a loyalty card stamp be?
Measure the boxes on your card first. A mark of 12 to 18 mm fits the boxes on a typical business-card-size loyalty card without touching the next one.
How do I stop people copying my loyalty stamp?
Use a distinctive icon rather than a plain star, change the ink color each season, and have staff initial completed cards before giving the reward.
Can I stamp directly on food packaging?
Yes, on bags, boxes, sleeves and napkins. If the stamped surface may touch food, ask your stamp supplier for an ink suited to food packaging and stamp the outside where possible.
Which file format should I choose?
Transparent PNG for menus and online ordering pages, and SVG or EPS for a print shop or rubber-stamp maker. The $3.50 export includes all six formats: PNG, JPG, SVG, EPS, PDF and DOCX.
How do I get a physical rubber stamp?
Export SVG, EPS or PDF and send it to a local stamp maker. Self-inking stamps suit order slips; a larger wooden-handle stamp suits bags and boxes.
How much does it cost?
Designing and previewing are free. You pay only to download without the watermark: $2.50, $2.90 or $3.50 per export, or an unlimited plan from $15.90 a month if you need several stamps.
Do cafes, bakeries and hotels need different stamps?
The ideas overlap. A cafe leans on coffee loyalty cards and cup sleeves; see the cafe stamp maker. Bakeries stamp boxes and bread bags, covered by our bakery stamp templates. A hotel restaurant can also use the hotel stamp maker.
