About this icon
Use the Menu icon
The Menu icon (Material Symbols Light) is categorized under Interface. Its light style is optimal for subtle decorative accents, secondary labels, light-themed dashboards, and minimal product pages and scales cleanly from 16px to 512px.
Use the IconStash detail panel to preview with a custom background, adjust stroke width, and generate production-ready SVG or PNG files without any external tools.
Export formats
Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.
All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Menu icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.
Design & UX integration
Aesthetic characteristics
Menu is the 300-weight cut of Material Symbols — the lightest weight in the variable font. Light weight reads as refined at large sizes, but it loses contrast on dark backgrounds and at 16px, so it suits spacious, light-themed layouts better than dense toolbars.
UX best practices
As a general interface glyph, the Menu icon does its job best between 16px and 24px, sitting next to a text label. Icon-only treatments work for a small set of universally understood actions, but comprehension falls off quickly once the action is specific to your product — so when in doubt, add the word.
