Planning valet service for a restaurant entrance
Restaurant valet is part of the evening’s first impression. The plan should fit the entrance and the hours your guests actually need it.
Match service to the dining hours.
Discuss the days and hours that need coverage, including the time guests are likely to leave. Tell us about busy reservation periods, special dinners and changes to the usual schedule.
Agree on the handoff point.
Look at how arriving cars, pedestrians and other property users share the entrance. Confirm where guests may stop and any access requirements before service is arranged.
Put parking permission in place.
The restaurant or client is responsible for securing a suitable parking area. Confirm the spaces you may use and the route from the entrance, particularly if a lot is shared with another business.
Coordinate with the front-of-house team.
Give your team clear information about valet hours and where guests should arrive. Questions about tipping, arrangements for special events and guest instructions can be discussed with Leo Valet when planning the contract.
