A global survey of more than 5,700 consumers across 11 geographies (Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, UAE, UK, and US) shows an optimism and openness toward the benefits enabled by technology. This digitization brings new challenges for businesses to retain a direct connection with their customers and build brand affinity. Restaurant owners and operators will have to continue to expand their digital presence to deliver seamless customer experiences both on- and off-premises. These are the four restaurant consumer trends to lean into in the coming year of dining.

Expediency over human interaction Increased digitization brings a new challenge for businesses to retain a direct connection with their customers as human interactions and touch points decrease.
Takeout and delivery are here to stay Even as in-person dining experiences become more widely available again, we’re seeing a stabilization for in-person dining compared to our last report in April 2021.

Instant gratification on the rise One consequence of the permanent shift in off-premises demand is an even lower tolerance for wait times. Consumers are now unlikely to tolerate slow service, both at the table or when ordering at a counter or a drive-thru.

Click and collect drives loyalty and spend Click and collect is a particularly popular hybrid between in-person engagement with a takeout conclusion. 63% of customers said they love this option or seek out brands that offer it, with 44% saying it makes them more loyal to the brand. Offering this service appears to increase spend among consumers. 59% said they’d spend more because of this service, with Millennials as the most compelled at 70%.
Customer satisfaction across channels Restaurant operators will need to implement effective systems to balance consumers’ various demands, or wholly reconsider how they support delivery, perhaps through a ghost kitchen instead of their consumer-facing location.

Tolerance for this is quickly waning. Those who dine out or order in-person at the counter are prone to impatience and annoyance if they https://www.oracle.com/industries/food-beverage/restaurant-trends/

There is increasing preference for contactless (Apple, Google Pay), with 40% preferring this method, and a slow emergence for alternative payments like cryptocurrency (4%).

Personalized offers are expected and welcomed With broad adoption of digital as the primary channel of interaction for browsing, shopping, and managing daily life, consumers are used to seeing tailored advertising wherever they go, and have grown to appreciate proactive recommendations from brands they like.
This personalization comes with great responsibility Consumers are increasingly worried about what happens to their data, so transparency is key to maintaining trust. In our last study, 1 in 4 consumers said they had no idea who has access to the data they surrender to delivery apps, and this time we found almost half (48%) said they want full visibility and control over this aspect.
