No matter if you have a theme or just a couple of colors in mind, you will need to find a way to make your restaurant look special and inspire your staff and your guests. You might want to consult with an interior designer who can create period pieces and decor items that will soon become a talking point in your town. Alternatively, you can make it modern and practical, using sleek design and smart contrast.
Natural Light
When you run lunch and breakfast service, as well as dinner, you will have to let natural light in. There’s nothing more depressing for guests than not being able to see what they are eating. Most people will want to take in the food with all their senses, unless you are offering a “dining in the dark” service. Open up the space as much as you can, so your guests will arrive and eat in better mood.
Practical Considerations

Your tables and chairs need to be arranged in a way that they are easy to see from the kitchen and the bar, and your servers can identify them easily. No matter if you are buying or renting a commercial space, you will need to adjust it to your needs. At the same time, allow enough space for walking around, and for people pulling their chair out. There is nothing worse than trying to have an intimate conversation with a partner and knowing that the next table can hear everything.
Easy to Clean
Your dining and cooking space also has to be practical. You want to avoid soft furnishing as much as you can, as it can be tricky to dry clean them every week. Surfaces should be easy to wipe clean, and you must take care of the flooring. Find the right balance between practical and pretty by installing decorative concrete floors that are simple to clean and give your dining room a modern look.
Create Intimate Corners
Of course, you will also have to provide some nooks and corner tables that people can use for business meetings or dates. Your interior decor should include a few tables that are more private and allow your guests to have a conversation, discuss business or private life. Offer these tables for the regular guests and business clients arriving for lunch, so they can enjoy their time without distraction.
When you launch your restaurant, you will need to take into consideration your target customers’ needs and preferences, as well as practicality to make your staff’s job easier.
