350 Restaurant

These buildings are constructed for the preparation and service of food and beverages. They include a combination of the following areas: Consumption, production, serving, receiving and storage, sanitation, non-dining and employee, and restrooms. Good restaurants include the typical chain operation and suburban neighborhood restaurants catering to regional trade. Average quality includes neighborhood restaurants or coffee shops or a lower priced franchise operation. They include suitable office areas and all necessary plumbing and electrical connections for kitchen equipment.

Since restaurants have higher requirements for heating, cooling and ventilation, use component 617 (Complete HVAC) for HVAC costs.

The following are not included in the costs: Kitchen equipment, restaurant fixtures, furnishings and signs.

For cafeterias, use occupancy 530 (Cafeteria).
