Unlike traditional businesses, restaurants require more than just good food and excellent service. They need to create a perfect ambience for their space. Nowadays, social media has helped many restaurants to build presence especially the rise of influencers where they could showcase the interiors of their restaurant aside from the menu and their service. The interior design, especially the walls, plays a pivotal role in shaping your customers’ experience. Commercial wallcoverings provide a unique opportunity to blend functionality, durability, and style into your restaurant's design, whether you're working on a cozy cafe, a bustling bar, or an upscale dining space. 

Why Wallcovering Matter in Restaurants? 

In hospitality, the quote “first impressions last” applies. In general, our walls set the vibe on our space, in the case of restaurants, it’s how customers are influenced and perceived by your brand. With all the costs of running a restaurant business, wallcoverings are the most cost-effective solution for adding depth and texture and personalization to its interiors. Patterns and colors can be easy to align with your design and theme especially to those who are into modern industrial vibe, rustic charm, or a high-end luxury look.

Benefits of having Wallcoverings for Restaurants or Bars 

We can start off with durability. Restaurants and bars are considered high traffic areas, and because of that, wall coverings are your best choice to install as they withstand wear and tear and last longer than any other type of materials on the walls. Our commercial wallcoverings are easy to maintain because they are stain-resistant, which is very common for restaurants, making it very easy to clean and will save you lots of time and money too.  

The versatility of wallcoverings for restaurants and bars also offers endless design possibilities whether you are a small cafe, large bar lounges or a mom-and-pop restaurant. All wall coverings have a design for every restaurant type. Lastly there is the aesthetic appeal it brings to these businesses. Installing wallcovering in your restaurant can create a beautiful focal point which enhances the overall dining experience. 

How to Design Wallcoverings in Restaurants? 

The first thing you need to consider is if the wallcovering design aligns with your brand. Choose colors and textures that reflect your restaurant’s personality. Calm bar designs should feature bold geometric patterns and coffee shops should choose neutral tones and natural textures to create the coziness the coffee shop is believed to have as qualities.  

For zones like dining spaces, bar counters and lounges, use different wall coverings to distinguish them. This will create a visual interest in customers and guide their flow as they go. You can also play around with wall covering textures, meaning you could mix smooth finishes like faux paint wallpaper with textured options like faux grasscloth for a balanced look. 

Be practical. For areas which stains and spills are common like kitchens and dining tables, you need to consider wallcoverings that are easier to clean compared to other options. The best choice for these areas is the Faux Backsplash Wallpaper. Lastly, on the accent walls, use faux wood wallpaper that can complement your decors and lighting.
