# Adjusting sub menu width

 * I am trying to adjust the width of sub item menus on our website. For example
   on the home page _[ redundant link removed ]_ the items under the Main menu item“
   Kitchen” such as “Food-to-go” & “Family Meals” are getting the widths shrunk 
   down and now appear on two lines each. Can anyone help me with some CSS code 
   for a newbie to this whole process? We are about to change the “Education and
   Tours” menu also and reduce this down to say “Learning” which seems that the 
   width of the word “Learning” dictates the width of the drop down sub menus. If
   you are so kind to help us can you please suggest code that will work for all
   the main menus as we expand the website and make changes? I am hoping that there
   are lines of code that will work generically for the whole menu. We aren’t using
   the mega menus so don’t have the option under the “Style” tab that I noted in
   another post. Aloha

       ul.sub-menu {
           width: 250px;
       }
       ```
