There comes a time when a restaurant simply needs some TLC. Small changes to the decor over time can keep a place looking fresh and tidy for longer.
Sometimes, though, a restaurant can find itself trapped in a time-warp, screaming out for modernisation or an injection of new life. If you’re looking for inspiration, or perhaps you enjoy the before and after concept, check out these five restaurant makeovers…
The Oleander Bar & Grill
The owner of The Oleander Bar & grill didn’t feel as though the decor reflected what ‘oleander’ stood for – a pretty southern flower’. The new colours and furniture give a contrasting effect, simple yet elegant and fresh. Featured on Restaurant: Impossible, this is one of Robert Irvine’s most dramatic restaurant makeovers.
Spunky Monkey Bar & Grill
Another transformation featured on the TV show Restaurant: Impossible. It was clear that Spunky Monkey had a unique theme with a vision of how they wanted to appear. The transformation captured this whilst enhancing the quality and feel of the overall bar and grill. It suddenly became much more sophisticated but kept the ‘fun vibe’ that Spunky Monkey represents.
34 Windsor St
Another example of a dated and neglected decor transformed into a modern uplifting space. 34 Windsor St restaurant and cocktail bar underwent a full refurbishment. The image above is taken from just one room, the lounge area of the restaurant. Even from these two photos, you can see just how effective a more neutral colour palette can be. This space now appears more relaxing and high-end in comparison to the original decor. See the full selection of photos and the entire work from the refurbishment over on the 34 Windsor St blog.
SunnyBrooks Bar
A transformation from the American TV show ‘restaurant takeover makeover‘ as featured on cookingchanneltv.com. Before the bar area could only be described as bland! Seriously lacking in personality and style SunnyBrooks was more than ready for a facelift. The contrast of the rugged back wall against the sleek white and grey stripes is striking and on-trend.
Frankie’s Bar
Frankie’s bar was also featured on the TV show restaurant takeover makeover and the transformation of the counter area is unbelievable! It looks like a completely different place with a whole new vibe. The white marble counter-top is chic and on-trend compared to the dated casual look and feel it had before.
