🍨 What do people remember your venue for? Not just “good coffee” or “nice food”. I mean the menu item people talk about.
Is it a massive ice cream sundae in the tall glass? A banana split your regulars know will be made perfectly? Coffee they can’t get anywhere else?
What’s your dish that makes someone say “you need to try this”?
These dishes give your customers a reason to come back, bring someone with them, take a photo, and spend a little more.
Just make sure you’re thinking about food cost, pricing, prep time, waste, staff training and average spend all need to be part of the decision. A dish can look brilliant but be problematic if the margin is wrong or the kitchen can’t make it regularly.
This is why hospitality consulting is helpful. We look at menu ideas, customer experience, average spend, pricing and profitability together, so your offer goes beyond creative or appealing, it makes you profitable.
