What is your view on the importance of F&B outlet design?
  • Good design is vital; a bad interior can put off customers permenantly.

  • There are many outlets here, so you need at least a half-way decent interior to compete.

  • It's not massively important; outlets are about food and service, not carpets and wallpaper.

  • It's ridiculous that some outlets build their whole offering around the design; they won't last.
