Private dining services can be incredibly lucrative for your hotel business, so it's important to do it right - read on for our essential guide.
A great service to add to your restaurant is private dining. From birthdays to Christmas parties, creating a private space and premium dining experience can be a fantastic selling point. However, with that comes certain expectations for your guests, so you need to be up to standard not only with your menu but your overall customer service.
Here’s how to create the best private dining experience.
Set your tables well
Your table's settings are very important in creating a good dining experience. As the space where your guests are going to be for the majority of the evening, dirty tablecloths and mismatched serviettes won’t go unnoticed.
As a very basic requirement, investing in high-quality restaurant linen will create a comfortable and enjoyable place to dine. You could also be a little fancier with your choice of tableware for an added touch of luxury.
Keep your staff members well dressed
Private dining is a step up from regular dining and this needs to be reflected in how your staff members interact with guests as well as how they look. Why not swap your regular uniforms for something a little more high end?
Private dining is usually run as a butler-style service, so these closer interactions between guests and your staff mean all eyes are on you - and scruffy uniforms won’t pass!
Upgrade your menu
Private dining is a premium service and with that, diners should be offered premium food.
Creating a new menu will get people excited about dining with you, so go all out and offer amazing starters, mains and desserts. The menu does not have to be vast - in fact, a small selection of options will appear more exclusive!
Your menu reflects you as a business, so don’t be tempted to overlook this as one of the most important features of private dining.
