Aug 29
Posted by Daniel in fun, Restaurant Furniture, restaurant tips and advice

If you are running a family friendly restaurant that focuses on children, then you will want to make sure that you have everything that a child centric restaurant should have. Here are a few fun ideas that you might want to incorporate into your restaurant.

What screams fun for kids? Games are an obvious choice. You can have many different types of games, from video games to skee ball. You will want to make sure that there are games for children of different ages, and it might be a good idea to throw in something that the adults are going to like as well.

Seating is something that you need to consider carefully. Remember that in a restaurant that is specifically for children, they are going to be running around. Make sure that you have enough space to allow for that. Restaurant booths will help to easily divide the space and will allow for more “running around” space. You will also need to make sure that you have seating that is right for both children and adults. Booster seats, for the younger kids to sit on, are a great idea and they are something that you do not want to overlook.

What are your customers and all of those potential customers doing when they aren’t enjoying a meal at your restaurant? Well, when they aren’t at work most people spend oodles of time on the web. Of course, quite a few of them are probably on the net even when they are at work, but that’s beside the point! Once you realize how much time people spend on the web, you can see what a powerful tool it can be. If you have only a limited web presence right now, beef it up.

You need to have a website for your restaurant for starters. It doesn’t have to be full of bells and whistles, and you don’t have to spend a fortune to get it set up. However, you want to try to set the right tone with your site. It should match the ambience that you are trying to create inside your eatery.

Make sure that you have your menu up on your site so people know what they are going to find in terms of eats. You also want to have some photos of your restaurant. Have a gallery of shots of the exterior and the interior to show your restaurant furniture and seating arrangement. Highlight the best parts of your restaurant. You can hire a professional to take the photos or you can do it on your own. Just be sure to put up clean and clear photos. That means the snapshots you take with your cell phone probably aren’t going to cut it.

Jul 28
Posted by Daniel in bar tips and advice, Restaurant, Restaurant Furniture, restaurant seating, restaurant tips and advice

Many people who are new to the restaurant business are afraid of offering discounts that they deem to be too large. However, a large discount might be just what you need to stir up more customers and get new people to come into your restaurant. How deep is a deep discount? Consider offering a meal for .25 cents with the purchase of another meal at full price.

This seems like it is going to cost you money, but you will be able to make up for it in volume. In addition, more people will hear about your restaurant, and you might be able to attract some customers that would never have visited. If they have a good experience, they will likely come back.

How can you make sure that they have a good experience at your restaurant? Well, for starters you need to have great food and a great staff that is going to be able to handle the higher volume of traffic. Because you should expect to do more business during this time, it is important that your restaurant seating is able to handle that many extra people too. Good restaurant seating, a good staff, and great food are three ingredients that you can’t do without.

If you have a large space that you rent out for formal dinners, such as a ballroom, you want to make sure that the people who rent the room from you have a great setup.
