Answer:
LOCATION OF RESTAURANT:
The location of the restaurant is crucial to its success. Much thought and planning need to go into
deciding the location, and many factors need to be considered before selecting the site.
A front location can do wonders for your restaurant. A restaurant right at the front of the building
has maximum visibility and generates the highest footfalls compared to the other areas.
Customers usually choose the restaurant that is right in front of them. 
Selecting a location for the restaurant is the first thing anyone should be paying attention to.
Your restaurant location will decide the fate of your restaurant in the long run.

STRATEGY OF RESTAURANT:
1. A restaurant plan should include:

 The kitchen
 Kitchen elements like refrigerators, stoves, and other large appliances
 Tables and chairs
 The entrance
 The waiting area
 The bar area
 The restrooms
 Your staff area or backroom
 Outdoor seating
 Your restaurant POS system and payment systems
 Windows
 Doors
 Emergency exits
 Square footage

2. Restaurant layouts and social distancing safety guidelines:

In the age of COVID, the CDC requires restaurants to make adjustments to maintain safety for
customers and staff. Restaurants are currently asked to:
 Maintain at least 6 feet of space between tables. 
 Are encouraged to offer take-out options, drive-through, delivery, and curbside pickup. 
 Use technology like texting, apps, and more to minimize crowding in restaurant waiting
areas. 
 Construct physical barriers between dining groups when possible.
 Provide ample space with distancing for restaurant staff to take breaks, eat, and drink.

3. Restaurant Kitchen Floor Plan:

Floor-plan considerations are critical for kitchen staff: a well-laid-out kitchen will increase
efficiency, reduce accidents, and increase overall staff happiness. The cooking area is set up in a
square, and the space is open, so cooks can communicate with each other while preparing meals. 

The best kitchen designs minimize the chance for cooks to bump into each other and will reduce
the time it takes to run a plate to where a server will pick it up. It should also include all the
essential restaurant equipment and supplies.

4. The Waiting Area Floor Plan:

It's easy to completely overlook the waiting area, or add it as an afterthought where diners are
squeezed into a small area while waiting for a table, or they're blocking the way of servers or
other diners. But don't make that mistake, because the waiting area offers a great opportunity to
show next-level hospitality. For example, one simple way you can show your restaurant’s
commitment to the guest experience is by implementing a free coat check.

5. The Dining Room Floor Plan:


The dining room is arguably the most important part of the restaurant. Your dining room should
be inviting, but intimate; spacious, yet welcoming. No matter how large the dining area might be,
it should never feel cavernous to your guests. 

6. Emergency Exits:

All restaurant floor plans must be created with emergencies in mind. Floor plan software Smart
Draw gives the following example of a floor plan with its paths of egress marked in red. 

LAYOUT:
The right layout of seating, bar, and kitchen locations have a massive impact on both your
employee and guest experiences as well as your restaurant's efficiency and profitability.

For guests: You want to provide a layout that is welcoming and aesthetically pleasing for their
dining experience. 

For employees: You want to maximize efficiency, removing any obstacles to their ability to do
their jobs easily and quickly.
A restaurant floor plan is a map of your restaurant’s physical space, encompassing all of the
elements of your establishment. This includes the dining area, waiting area, kitchen, prep areas,
storage, and bathroom, and how they fit into your space together.
