5 tips for naming a restaurant
- Hint at the food or the feel. People scanning a map or a delivery app decide in seconds. A name like Woodfire Room or Larder & Flame tells them what kind of meal to expect before they open the menu.
- Test it on the phone. Your staff will say "Thanks for calling ___" all day. If the name is a mouthful, it gets shortened, and the short version becomes your name anyway.
- Put the strong word first. Long names get cut off on small screens in maps and delivery apps, so lead with the word you want people to remember.
- Leave room to grow. A name built on one dish or one street gets awkward when the menu changes or you open a second location.
- Check the handle before the sign. People look a new restaurant up on Instagram and Google before they book a table, so make sure the handle is open and close to your .com. Once the name is picked, we can set up your socials to match.
