 As a firm 'no phones when we are out to eat' person I fuckin hate QR code menus.  

Worst trend, especially around where I live where cell service is dismal and they barely work until you get the Wi-Fi password and whole shebang.

Grrrrr this grates on me. Many places in the Bay Area won't let you order or pay except by QR. I've walked out more than once. There are the usual data and security issues, but what a lot of people don't consider is that mandatory QR scanning discriminates against people who, for whatever reason, don't have smart phones or credit cards. My elderly parents couldn't eat at those places. Seriously fuck that.
