Why cover your terrace in winter?

The winter period is synonymous with gloom and melancholy. At this time of year, outdoor dining areas are often unused, even though they represent a real opportunity for differentiation. Don't hesitate, dress up your terrace in the middle of winter! This trendy concept has many advantages, both for the company and for customers wishing to enjoy a good dinner in an unusual and magical setting.

Traditional restaurant offerings are no longer enough to seduce consumers who are increasingly demanding and looking for something new. At FUGU, we believe that thecustomer experience in the food & beverage sector is the key to creating a unique concept that will amaze your guests. Set yourself apart from the competition by choosing one of our three structures dedicated to the food and beverage market: the Metal domethe Halo Dome and the Tunnel Gallery.

The advantages of a deck in all seasons

Winter should no longer be synonymous with an off-season for restaurant owners. On the contrary, it is an opportunity to differentiate oneself by using one's outdoor space, which represents an asset that is still too little exploited! Setting up your terrace in winter is a very beneficial investment for professionals in the sector. By optimising your entire space, you will be able to welcome more guests, which will considerably increase your occupancy rate and your turnover. 

Take advantage of the expression "crowds attract crowds" to win over new customers! In addition to optimising your number of covers per day, proposing an original restaurant concept will strongly stimulate theattractiveness of your restaurant. Seeing your terrace full in the middle of winter will encourage passers-by to come and try your original offer.

Who doesn't dream of a good dinner under the stars, worthy of a chick flick? The terraces and rooftops are secret and surprising places that give visitors a feeling of exclusivity. They offer them the opportunity to marvel at the outdoor entertainment in an idyllic and warm setting. The design of a restaurant terrace therefore has the advantage of offering its customers an extra-sensorygastronomic experience.
