Abstract: Embodiments are directed to providing meal information and event ticketing to a customer via an electronic menu. In one scenario, a computer system provides an electronic menu to a user. The electronic menu includes a user interface that allows users to select different meals provided by a restaurant to obtain information about the meal. The electronic menu further provides an indication of local events that are to take place within a specified time period and within a specified distance from the restaurant. The computer system receives an input from the user selecting at least one of the meals provided by the electronic menu's user interface and, in response to receiving the input, provides meal-related information for the user-selected meal. The meal-related information includes textual information, audio information, pictures and/or video content.
