The food and beverage industry attracts fearless, resilient entrepreneurs who are embracing change. From blurring the line with retail to pushing the envelope with automation, restaurants are evolving and expanding in ways that transform the experience for diners and staff alike. Innovation and adaptability continue to be priorities in 2023. Owners are preparing for economic challenges and making room for opportunity with both proven tactics and new innovations. The future of restaurants is daring and creative.
To provide restaurants with key insights and inspiration, Square worked with Wakefield Research to survey 500 U.S. restaurateurs and 2,000 nationally representative consumers over the age of 18. Square sellers also shared insights from their point of view on steps they’ve taken or plan to take to navigate the future of their restaurant and the needs of their customers.
The Square Future of Restaurants report will help you understand the top trends, the changing landscape and expectations, and the tools and strategies that define the next era of the restaurant industry.
