Google Ads β Advertise Your Restaurant on One Screen
The Google Ads section lets you run ads for your venue in Google Search and monitor their performance without juggling a dozen tabs in the ads manager. Connect your Google Ads account once, then create campaigns and read reports right inside the admin panel.
Open: Admin Panel β Google Ads (admin.meni.ge).
This is not the same as Advertising & Marketing, where you just enter a Customer ID for analytics. Here you actually create and launch campaigns.
Connecting an account
In the "Google Ads account" card, click "Sign in with Google" and grant access. After authorization, pick the ads account from the list (if you have several β e.g. your own and a client's). Manager accounts are marked with a separate badge.
The connection is made per location β switch locations in the dropdown at the top of the page. If you don't have an ads account yet, create one at ads.google.com, then come back and click "Refresh".
Campaigns tab
The tab shows every campaign in the selected account β both those created in Meni and those created directly in Google. Each shows metrics for the last 30 days:
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Status | Active Β· Paused Β· Removed |
| Budget/day | Daily spend limit |
| Impressions | How many times the ad was shown |
| Clicks | How many times it was clicked |
| CTR | Share of clicks per impressions |
| Avg. CPC | Average cost per click |
| Cost | Spent during the period |
| Conv. | Conversions |
Straight from the list you can pause, re-enable or remove a campaign. The "Open Google Ads" button takes you to the full manager for fine-tuning.
Creating a campaign
Click "New campaign" and fill in the form:
- Name β e.g. "Lunch menu β Tbilisi".
- Daily budget β how much you're willing to spend per day.
- Duration β how many days to run it.
- Countries β ISO codes, comma-separated (e.g.
GE, AM). - Landing page URL β where the ad leads, usually your menu page.
- Keywords β one per line (e.g. "restaurant tbilisi", "khinkali delivery").
- Headlines β at least 3, up to 30 characters each. Google mixes them into the best-performing combination.
- Descriptions β at least 2, up to 90 characters each.
The campaign is created paused β no money is spent until you enable it. Review the ads in the list and activate when ready.
Analytics tab
A performance summary for 7, 30 or 90 days β across all campaigns or a selected one:
- KPI tiles: impressions, clicks, cost, conversions, CTR, average CPC.
- A daily dynamics chart (clicks / impressions / cost, your choice).
- A breakdown by campaign so you can see what works best.

Can I run ads for multiple locations?

Do I have to write the ads myself?
Yes, you provide the headlines and descriptions β Google automatically combines them to find the most effective variant.
