Entertainers and nannies, how I am entertaining you in the restaurant - Lifestyle

Children in the restaurant? The yes / no debate goes crazy. Do we want Kids Friendly restaurants or Children free restaurants? Families turn out to be a target of fundamental importance for the restaurant sector. 47% of respondents with children under the age of 12 indicate that they go to the restaurant at least once a week - only slightly less than those who have no children at home (49%). This group of customers prefer traditional restaurants and pizzerias. Not only created by Bva Doxa to which TheFork has collaborated, it emerges that offering environments suited to the needs of younger guests is considered by all to be an added value. For 2 out of 3 Italians this is information that would help in choosing the place and - above all - almost 90% of the interviewees would book a restaurant equipped with this service if combined with good reviews on food. People with children under the age of 12 (72%) and residents in the South and in the islands (91%) appreciate the service most.
It seems clear that the presence of dedicated services can improve the experience of all customers. More than 40% of Italians with children admit to having been forced at least once to leave the restaurant earlier than they would have liked, due to the environment which is not suitable for families and the figure rises for those with children under the age of 12. On the other hand, 1 in 3 Italians did not choose a place because it is often frequented by families with children. Animation services, nannies for dinner, play areas: here are the solutions found by Italian restaurants to meet the needs of all customers.
