There are many factors to take into account when you are considering buying a restaurant. Firstly, you will want to consider whether you want to start a new business from scratch, or to buy or rent an existing restaurant.
Of course, if you want to start entirely from square one, you’ll have a lot of freedom and will be able to decide on every small aspect of the restaurant design, such as the layout of the kitchen, which is often very important to career chefs. However, this option can be very expensive, and time consuming. Installing a professional kitchen from nothing cannot be done on a small budget, and there are many items you’ll need to consider that may not be immediately obvious such as extraction, gas and electric hookups, and waste disposal. The local health and safety department have a huge list of hygiene laws and standards that must be observed such as floor coverings, paint specifications, storage, and fire exits. And this is just for the kitchen – the dining areas and any outdoor spaces are subject to just as many rules and requirements!
Often a great option is to buy or lease an existing restaurant, which you can then update and customize to suit your specifications. This will normally (hopefully) have the bare bones and basic specifications already in existence, for the kitchen and for the dining areas.
When looking for a restaurant, the location is just as important, if not more so, than the building itself. You’ll want to consider accessibility, foot traffic and road traffic, public transport links, and parking. The local area is important – who are your neighbors? What other businesses are nearby? Who are your closest competitors? Are you close to your suppliers? Who are your target customers, and does this location fit?
So whether you are looking to open up a high end steakhouse in the perfect location with lots of traffic, a chic sushi bar in a busy city center location, organic farm to table eatery with plenty of outdoor dining space, a take-away pizza restaurant, a local coffee or juice café with drive thru and late night options, or a breakfast morning spot with plenty of parking…. you must think carefully about your specifications.
