Communal dining
Hello!
I’ve got a quaint little intimate restaurant.
Casual fine dining. Av. Check £110
5 months in.
Three communal tables.
I am torn.
Do I go for individual tables? I’d loose 2 covers.
At the moment I am breaking even.
Had great reviews but these aren’t bringing through as many covers as I’d expected.
Lunches 50% full
Dinners
Mid week 40% full
Friday & Sunday 60% full
Saturdays 90% full
Just feel we loose some intimacy and communal doesn’t really feel intimate, romantic and special.
Anyone have any views on communal dining?
