Restaurant rent reviews combine property valuation with the particular characteristics of food-and-beverage premises. Location, configuration, extraction and permitted use can materially affect rental value.
Ground-floor trading space
Frontage, trading layout, kitchen allocation, customer capacity and the relationship between front and back-of-house accommodation should be considered when comparing properties.
Extraction and servicing
Existing extraction, loading, refuse arrangements and late-hours capability can affect the usefulness of restaurant premises and the relevance of comparable evidence.
Upper floors and ancillary accommodation
Storage, offices or residential/ancillary upper parts may require separate analysis rather than applying a single rate to the entire property.
Permitted use
The lease user clause and planning position can affect the hypothetical letting and should be understood before evidence from other food-and-beverage premises is adopted.
