- GROWTH:
• This restaurant currently operates only for dinner five days a week, significantly limiting its revenue potential.
• By expanding its hours to include lunch or operating as a daytime café, it could capture a much broader customer base, including professionals, remote workers, and social meetups seeking a welcoming space similar to a Starbucks-style gathering spot.
• A café model with coffee, pastries, and light fare would create a steady daytime revenue stream while utilizing existing infrastructure more efficiently.
