In this age of social media where everybody is an amateur photographer, customers have turned out to be more conscientious of the quality of the menu, as well as the details of the design of your space. When consumers choose a restaurant, they’re not only judging the quality of the food and service, but the aesthetics of the eatery as well. This is why it is very important to incorporate great restaurant design and brand from the start.
Appropriate Decor:
Decor that doesn’t tell your brand’s story can actually detract from profits. Good planning is the corner stone of any restaurant design, so start by writing down the vision for your restaurant. Consider the lighting, fixtures, decorations and types of tables and chairs you want to add into your commercial dining space. Every item you select should effectively communicate your brand. Branding can include your logo, company name, consistent style of furniture and especially your color theme.
Appropriate Restaurant Furniture:
Just as the appropriate decorations sell your brand, so can the right restaurant furniture. Restaurant tables and seating come in a huge variety of styles, colors and shapes to easily match the look and color of your company’s logo and branding. If you have two or three colors incorporated in your branding materials, it is recommended to choose those same colors. There are even restaurant tables that can be designed to incorporate your company’s name and logo.
Good Floor Plans:
Poorly laid out floor plans, bar setups, wait stations and table configurations obstruct customers and servers. Even a perfect restaurant can fall short if the layout of chairs and tables are inappropriate. To make sure each table is well-placed, managers or staff can sit at each location in the dining setup to see which have excessive traffic, noise, or other shortfalls. If you don’t feel you are able to properly construct a layout, there are templates online, or investing in a designer or architect may be your best route to success.
Exposed Service Areas:
Overflowing trashcans or visible bus pans can hinder a guest’s restaurant experience. The primary function of a restaurant is offering good food to its guests. People want to dine in an attractive and clean space. Customers are paying good money and chose your restaurant out of many so look at your space from a customer perspective. If customers see overflowing trashcans, clutter, or dirty dishes in a sink, they will be uncomfortable. They may just get up and leave from your restaurant. Ensure the service areas don’t intrude upon diners.
