What is the purpose of a restaurant consulting firm for real estate companies?
A restaurant consulting firm for real estate companies assists owners, investors, and asset managers in the analysis, transformation, and enhancement of real estate properties that include an F&B component. Its value lies in a combined mastery of real estate challenges, technical constraints related to F&B, and the economic realities of an operating asset.
It evaluates the suitability of a location in terms of footfall, visibility, and accessibility. These elements are then weighed against F&B-specific requirements : extraction, ventilation, safety, accessibility, layout, operational constraints, and conditions of use for the premises.
It also conducts feasibility studies to estimate the potential turnover, the sustainable rent level, the capacity, the fit-out requirements, and the necessary investments. This analysis provides an objective assessment of the viability of an F&B activity, to adjust the site's positioning, and to secure the real estate company's yield objectives.
Finally, it guides real estate value creation : positioning optimization, review of lease terms, identification of suitable concepts, anticipation of works, and commercialization strategy. The objective is to help decision-makers choose between leasing, transformation, repositioning, renegotiation, sale, or development of an F&B-focused asset.
What does a real estate company's restaurant consulting mission involve?
A consulting assignment for real estate companies can involve a vacant space, a multi-site portfolio, a shopping mall, a commercial property, a hotel, a leisure site, a train station, an airport, or any real estate complex facing F&B challenges. All with the aim of defining the best restaurant operating strategy.
The study relies on concrete criteria: site attractiveness, foot traffic quality, premises exposure, commercial potential, accessibility, surrounding competition, and suitability with potential restaurant concepts. Concurrently, we assess operational parameters: available space, extraction, ventilation, fire safety, accessibility for people with reduced mobility (PRM), storage, delivery, traffic flow organization, and layout constraints.
Contractual and economic aspects are also integrated into the analysis: rent level, lease duration, indexation, charges, work distribution, specific clauses, exit scenarios, and impact on rental or market value. This analysis helps determine if the asset can accommodate a strong operator, generate sustainable income, and remain consistent with market standards.
This analysis is further extended by a strategic review of the asset: concept selection, target operators, pricing strategy, sales projections, investment level, regulatory risks, and development scenarios. This provides the real estate company with a solid basis for decision-making when marketing, restructuring, repositioning, leasing, acquiring, or selling an F&B asset.

Collaborating with Tomorrow Food means relying on a team of true food service professionals, highly knowledgeable about the Parisian and French market, and always ready to explore innovative approaches.
When managing the commercial offerings at French train stations, we sometimes need expert support. With its insight into F&B trends, its bold approach, and its commitment to simple, generous cuisine, Tomorrow Food helped us rethink what a significant part of station catering could be (and will be): regional cuisine, accessible to everyone, complementing local restaurant offerings and meeting evolving customer expectations. From menu development to artistic direction, Tomorrow Food assembled a complete and complementary team.
Aiming to launch a retail-focused innovation lab offering food services, we approached Tomorrow Food in 2023. After several weeks of collaborative brainstorming, we conceived an original concept: Bistro Hasard, located near Saint-Lazare Station. Launched in April 2024, this establishment offers innovative gaming-themed experiences. This unique venture required a complete alignment of visions between Tomorrow Food and us, as well as unwavering mutual trust. By combining these two ingredients, we successfully developed a one-of-a-kind establishment that satisfies customers and is becoming a benchmark.
From concept creation to detailed definition, the team demonstrated true professionalism, responsiveness, and valuable expertise. Communication was excellent within the project team and with our board. The financial figures were well-structured and consistent. The TFA team was attentive and willing to challenge themselves to bring our project to fruition.
