Popular Fabric Structures for Covered Outdoor Dining
Designing a unique outdoor dining area that stays true to your restaurant’s brand is essential for creating an outdoor space with the same or greater appeal as the main dining room. Whether it is a small alley on the side of your restaurant, a portable structure set up next to your food truck, a rooftop space with spectacular views, a garden that provides food-to-table service, or a busy sidewalk, a fabric building from Alaska Structures® can quickly convert any of these open spaces into a functional, covered, and cozy outdoor dining experience that guests will love.
A local eatery recently converted a small space behind their restaurant, using a WeatherPort® Jubilee Series™ to create a secret garden oasis for outdoor dining, complete with string lights, comfortable padded wicker furniture, and using antique gardening equipment, made a rustic-chic area for guests to enjoy. Though the space was small and could only accommodate an additional four dining tables with four chairs each, as the restaurant owner explained, “It is additional seating we didn’t have before.” An average price of $30 per meal resulted in a revenue increase of $480 per hour.
