I've updated my free Random Inn Generator with options for random menus. I started it a couple of months ago when I liked some of the tile-based random dungeon generators and then thought I could do something similar for random inn floorplans. (BTW, more floorplan tiles are coming.)
Random Inn/Tavern Generator
Based on early feedback when I posted some food menu options, a few people wanted to see simpler menus, and a few people wanted menus that included fantasy beast ingredients. I've been able to accommodate both requests by allowing options. If you set the "Menu Variety" to "poor" you'll be left with only basic menu items. If you set "Has Fantasy Foods" to "Yes" you will get some unusual ingredients as long as "Menu Variety" is not "Poor" and it isn't randomly set to "Poor" if you leave it blank.
In the case of drinks, again if the "Menu Variety" is "Poor" you get a menu with just the basic Ale, Wine, etc. If you pick something other than "Poor" (or the random selection is not "Poor") you'll get seven or eleven drink options. Many of these have names as if they are named after a city, river, country, etc., or as if they simply have a sort of brand name.
Note that next up will be some more random floorplan tiles. There are currently at least two random tiles for each part of the inn, but I'm planning on adding at least a whole new second floor. And I'll also fill in the kitchen area on the existing tiles with a fireplace or two, a few food prep tables, etc.
I'd still like to add more options for foods and drinks, so please post with any suggestions! I genuinely hope many can find it useful.
