I don't have any special info but based on news reports it seems that restaurants aren't a great fit for massively discounted deals.
The type of businesses that do benefit the most are those that will operate anyway but have excess capacity to use (eg. beds and breakfasts).
- MrMan 15y agoRestaurants also have unused tables and surplus food. Is there another reason why they are not great candidates for deals? Because the reasoning above does not seem sound.
- freshfunk 15y agoSelling food is a low margin business because food are high. Whereas other businesses with excess capacity and most of the costs are operational don't have these problems
- afterburner 15y agoI thought the biggest expenses were the staff and rent. No? EDIT: OK, maybe not, only estimate I was able to find: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Running-Restaurant-2285/Ideal-restaurant-costs.htm http://en.allexperts.com/q/Running-Restaurant-2285/Ideal-res...
- panacea 15y agoI don't have any special info either, but after getting a couple of Groupon deals for restaurants, I've stopped. Dining out simply isn't pleasurable when the waiting staff treat you like a 'coupon customer'.
