Chalkboard & Handwritten Signage for Cafés, Pubs & Hospitality Venues
Elevate your blackboards. Showcase your brand. Make your menu irresistible.
Your food is carefully prepared, your service is warm and welcoming — so why should your signage be anything less?
At Magenta Ink, I offer a bespoke chalkboard and window signage service for independent cafés, pubs, restaurants and venues across central Scotland, helping you bring your menus, offers and atmosphere to life with beautifully handwritten calligraphy and illustrated designs.
Whether you’re after a full wall menu, daily specials board, seasonal cocktail list or sweet little cake labels, I’ll make sure your message looks just as good as your food tastes.
Services include:
-
Main wall menus – neatly laid out, perfectly legible and on-brand
-
Daily specials or seasonal features – hand-lettered with flair, changed weekly or monthly
-
Cake & pastry signs – the little labels that make a big difference
-
Window writing – welcome messages, opening hours, festive themes or promotions
-
A-board pavement signs – to turn heads and bring people in
-
Quotes, illustrations & hand-drawn flourishes – because personality matters
Available as a one-off service, regular visit (weekly, monthly or seasonally), or complete blackboard refresh, depending on what your business needs.
