Restaurant Remodeling Tips

restaurant furniture and design

Restaurant remodeling can be very expensive but if you want the best there will be the need to pay for it. It can be done for less of a cost by choosing less expensive items but there are times when it will be best to buy long lasting items. This way there will be no need to have to go through kitchen remodeling for some time.

A remodeling can make such a difference to a restaurant and not least it can push up its revenue. However, in these hard economic times it’s not always a good idea to invest in a large, expensive remodeling.
Star off by deciding on a sum that you can realistically afford and see what is available for that amount. When remodeling, decide who it is being done for. If you don’t plan to expand your clientele base then you can invest in a minor change that will refresh the existing decor without having to spend too much and without having to worry that your customers will not like what you have done.

Decide how much needs to be done and then what order to do it in. If there needs to be a complete overhaul it will be best to start with the redevelopment before the new equipment is brought in. This could be a new floor or new furniture and in the worst case scenario may even need new pipes fitting.

Once the reconstruction has taken place it will be time to decide on the items you want and don’t want. With a restaurant remodeling there will be plenty of scope when it comes to choosing new items. There are certain things to keep in mind when remodeling a dining venue and one may seem very superficial but it will be best to see what kind of restaurant furniture your competitors are using. Another good idea is to ask your workers and your clients what furniture they would like to see in your venue and try to incorporate that into your new design. (more…)

The next decision is upholstery type. While fabric can have a more upscale look and be more comfortable, it can be especially susceptible to stains, which can obviously be a regular problem for restaurant furniture. Unless you plan to pay for regular upholstery cleaning, stick with easy-to-clean materials such as vinyl.

Maximizing Restaurant Revenue with Good Design

restaurant designWhen a person builds or opens a restaurant, the layout is a major aspect in creating a successful restaurant. A restaurant with efficient service has many happy customers and many return customers. Happy customers + efficient service= profits and longevity for the venue.

When creating the perfect restaurant, plan it out before you jump into the decorations and placements of the furniture. Place the bar stools around the bar either at the center of the room or at the back of the room in order to keep everyone happy. For example, in some restaurants the bar and bar stools are located in a room off to the side or sometimes right in the middle of the room if it is a sports type restaurant.

Some restaurant owners will make a more complicated pathway for a guest to walk through from the front door to the tables. By doing so, the waiters and staff will have more time to help all of the current customers and have sufficient time to clear off the tables and clean them. Placing the restaurant chairs and tables in such a way may slow down the customers’ turnover slightly but will help to minimize walk-outs. (more…)

Celebrate the Oscars and Emmys at Your Restaurant

red carpet

There are a large number of people who absolutely love to watch the Oscars, the Emmys and all of the different award shows. Some people even have parties and invite their friends over so they can watch the shows together. As a restaurant owner, you want to be able to draw people into your venue, and a great way to do that is to capitalize on events such as these.

You will want to start your promotions early. In fact, have an entire week dedicated to the award show, and even rename some of your dishes for movies, shows, directors, etc. For example, last year you could have had a True Grits breakfast dish that comes with grits rather than oatmeal. Coming up with names and specials should be easy enough to do.

If you have a large television, you might want to host a special night for the awards show and let people come to your establishment to watch. Turn it into a red carpet event of your own and charge an entrance fee that includes dinner and a glass of wine. You could even make it a formal or semiformal affair if you want. If you are going to do this, you need to make sure that you have the proper amount of restaurant seating and that it is comfortable enough for people to use throughout the duration of the show.

Metal vs. Wood Restaurant Chairs

wood and metal restaurant chairsIf you own a restaurant, you might be wondering whether you should get metal or wood furniture for your venue. It’s a tough decision, but by taking a few factors into account that decision could be a little easier.

First, you should know that metal chairs are more durable and can withstand more wear and tear than wooden ones, it is also easier to clean and maintain as it does not require the same level of care as wood. An added bonus is the stackable metal chairs which can be stacked on top of one another very easily, making them a great fit for storage purposes. So if you want to take the practical, cost effective route, metal is likely your best bet. However, metal is often times not quite as stylish as wood.

This means that if you’re running a high end, fancy restaurant, you’ll obviously want everyone to realize just how fancy your restaurant actually is. Quite frankly, metal chairs can come off as a somewhat cheaper option and also have a colder less personal feel. Your customers will know you’re cutting corners to lower costs, rather than going all out to ensure your restaurant is a lavish, exciting experience for them.
