Midscale Restaurant Goers Want Speed and Value
According to a recent Mintel foodservice study, 80% of family restaurant-goers who are eating out less in general are doing so because of budgetary reasons. Due to this and other challenges, family restaurant sales are expected to decline by 7% over the next four years, says the report. The family midscale segment has been the most negatively impacted, says the report, and the next few years aren’t expected to show an upward swing.
Eric Giandelone, foodservice director at Mintel, says “… pricing (alone) has not proved successful for family restaurants… (the) opportunity for the market to return to a path of growth is to employ a sustainable approach to value… (with) ‘reasonable’ prices and value-added benefits like health and convenience…”
However, historically, “healthy” menu items don’t sell well because a healthy item often communicates “no taste.” But, says the report, a change may be imminent, as 34% of restaurant-goers say healthy food is an important factor in selecting a family restaurant.
