As the restaurant industry continues to become increasingly competitive, operators must look for new ways to make their venues more child-friendly. Depending on their methods, some may face the danger of alienating their customers. Families can be put off a restaurant if it is clear that the environment wouldn’t be comfortable for young children or that the experience wouldn’t be enjoyable for them. In addition to the accommodation of children in restaurants e.g. boosted seating, kids menu’s etc., operators can also commit to purchasing assets that will make the experience more enjoyable as well as comfortable for young diners.
Alongside means of entertainment among Alliance’s range of tabletop products, such as colouring books and activity packs, there are sets of child-friendly cutlery and polycarbonate table available. These types of products being at the ready for dining families with young children can ensure that all party members are individually enjoying their own experiences.
Be sure to also make your menu, capabilities and facilities for child diners available online. Many potential customers will visit your website in advance and some will only visit if they’re 100% sure that you can provide everything they’re looking for.
Operators in the market may also struggle to identify what parents are looking for in their child’s dining experience. Is it convenience? Sweets? Value for money? Dining trends have been leaning towards consumers more often going for healthier meals. Whilst consumers are increasingly looking for personal nutritional options whilst dining out, they wish to do the same for their children in order to promote optimal sustenance and development, not over-treating them with unhealthy snacks.
Ease of eating is another top priority. Having smaller cutlery, plastic cups and bowls on-hand can contribute to ease of eating, but also reduces the risk of tipping or spilling which improves the overall dining experience for the whole family.
