There is no central place to set the font size because different skins use different fonts, and often even multiple fonts together.
Most skins provide a "Large font" setting, which increases the size a little bit.

If that's not enough, you can increase the DPI for the start menu from the Menu Look tab. Set it to something like 120 or 144. It will increase the size of the entire menu, including the icons.

If that's not enough, you will have to create a custom skin.
