An average wait time for a meal is 15 minutes.

 
 

   

What are your customers doing while they wait?

 
 
 
 
During this time customers are noticing the cleanliness, décor, table setting, and service of your restaurant.
 
Paper placemats are an affordable way to make a positive impression and create an efficient and pleasurable dining experience. 
 
 
 
 


Top reasons you should consider using paper placemats:
  1. Printed paper placemats keep customers entertained with interesting facts to read about during their wait time. They are also a great way to keep anxious children occupied.
  2. Paper placemats can be used on any type of tabletop, with or without table cloths. They are conveniently disposable and are readily available. 
  3. Paper Placemats save money on decorating. They can give an artistic touch and easily alter a table’s look by simply changing the colors and designs.
  4. Regardless whether a tablecloth is clean, a stain will always give the appearance of being dirty. Paper placemats can protect your tablecloth from stains and can quickly be replaced with a new one during meal mishaps without interrupting the meal.
  5. Custom printed placemats are a great way to advertise your menu and specials.  Many local businesses are willing to pay for advertising space and exposure to your customers – these placemats will pay for themselves!

 

 Have you ever wondered what the world's smallest placemat looks like?
 
Here it is! 
 
 
Does this look familiar?
 
Customers actually believe that a sweetner packet is more sterile than a restaurant tabletop.  The truth is that neither of them are an ideal place to set utensils.
 
With the growing concern of bacteria contamination on tabletops and "super-flus" like the Norovirus, it is important to take extra measures to prevent these types of outbreaks. Did you know that the Norovirus actually gets into food and sticks to plates and silverware? It can can even get into laundry -clothing, sheets, towels, and linen napkins. The CDC recommends that tabletops and other surfaces are cleaned with bleach, including chlorine bleach or hydrogen peroxide, since regular cleaners will not destroy the virus.
 
Tabletops are more at risk for contamination than ever, but don't worry...
