You’re opening a new restaurant. How can you choose the perfect hospitality furniture?

I actually realise that marketing start by how you present your restaurant. But l also realise that before starting up you can be able to define what kind of restaurant are you looking to start up. If its a traditional style it should define itself by what you use including furniture, designs and staff presentation. If you are start up l urge business to draft a business structure and what they expect their business to be. Start with few presentable furniture and upgrade it to the standards you want.

Prior to the selection of furniture needs to a clear description of what you want your restaurant to represent and more importantly how do you want your patrons to feel when they dine with you? Once you establish that, hire a professional. Decorating and designing is not as easy as it looks on TV! Create focal points and little vignettes throughout your space!

Define your style by incorporating elements that resonate with the restaurant's identity. Whether it's contemporary, rustic, or minimalist, let your furniture choices reflect the intended atmosphere, reinforcing the brand and creating a unique and memorable dining experience.

Absolutely, but also allow some flexibility especially if you’re on a tight budget! Quality pieces should be a must but they don’t have to be new, try vintage, found, up cycling pieces that have good bones.

When selecting hospitality furniture, consider the spatial layout and dimensions. Opt for furniture that maximizes seating capacity without compromising comfort. Choose pieces that fit the scale of the space, allowing for easy circulation and maintaining a harmonious balance between functionality and aesthetics.

And don't forget to consult your interior decorator or someone who is in charge to build your dining area for input or opinion to consider. Me personally, I go with easy to maintain (clean & polish) then come to the esthetically consideration, color, shape and durability, also ease to be put here and there!

Prioritize quality and durability when selecting hospitality furniture. Invest in materials and construction that withstand the rigors of daily use in a restaurant setting. High-quality furniture not only enhances the establishment's image but also ensures a longer lifespan, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance costs.

Strive for a harmonious balance between comfort and style in your hospitality furniture selection. While chic and trendy designs contribute to the visual appeal, ensure that the seating and furnishings prioritize comfort for patrons. A comfortable environment encourages longer stays and positive dining experiences, complementing the overall aesthetic with practical considerations.

What I found helpful in choosing furniture other than it should be sturdy that it should be easy to move and play around with specially if you're planning to host group events and parties, should consider the sizing in that manner as well
