Restaurant table linens are often overlooked as restaurateurs look to improve the quality and image of their restaurants. If you think they don’t affect the customers, think again. In 2005, an industry related association conducted survey throughout the restaurant industry. The survey focused on the number of people who eat at particular restaurants and their check average. There turned out to be a 40% increase in the restaurant customers who use white restaurant linen. These customers also spent more on their meals each visit. While these numbers are drastic, it isn’t really a surprise. Would you rather have dinner at a restaurant with crisp, clean white linen or at a table covered in cheap plastic covers? Obviously, the clean linen is the choice. For restaurants, making a great first impression is critical. The table linens are a significant part of the making that perfect first impression. Therefore, when a customer sees cheap table linens, dirty, or wrinkled then he or she might assume the food quality is similar. However, when they see beautiful table linens- mental imagery of good food and quality are created.

Our Restaurant Linen Services have shared some of their customers’ latest dining trends!
Anyone who dines out even on an occasional basis has likely noticed that certain trends in dining tend to come and go. It seems as if the way people dine cannot stay static for more than a short period of time, with trends invading all different types of restaurants on a regular basis. Understanding and learning to identify popular dining trends is important not only for those who are in the business, but for diners as well. The following are a few recent dining trends our visitors and customers have discussed… which ones do you think will stick??
Service Linen Supply and MediCleanse Laundry based in Renton, WA have installed a new tunnel washer that will use 20 Million less gallons of water in 2012. Wow!

To learn more about the company, check out their Restaurant Linen Services or Medical Linen Services. Detailed information regarding the positive community impact of their new washing machine can be found on the News section of their websites.

Abracadabra! A simple wave of the magic price wand… and Poof – your linen prices have been raised!
Woah, I just signed the contract less than a year ago. Can they do that and without warning? What is being taken to the cleaners, my laundry or my business? (yeah, pun was completely intended).
The Linen Service Magic Price Wand
Profiteering & Price Gouging in Linen and Uniform Services. Unbelievable but true. So how does this happen? Well, a couple of ways actually.
Price Gouging happens in many industries. For example, during natural disasters gasoline stations raise their prices knowing the consumer has limited options. They need gas to get around. If they are one of the stations that were not affected by the events they will seize the opportunity to raise prices. Luckily there are government regulations that help prevent this from happening. However this is a shady, dark and dirty area for many laundries.
With linen service a major event does not need to occur in order to merit a price increase. Here comes the magic wand again. POOF! BAM! KAPOW! Your linen service company has just raised your prices again! Hold up, BAM, AGAIN!? The answer is yes. Unless specific increases are written into your contact the linen service company can increase your prices… just like that.
How can you protect yourself? A reputable linen service company will be established and come with good references to back them up. These companies have been in business for many years and do not want to lose their community goodwill. But how do you know if a linen service company is really who they say they are? That’s where we can help. We’ve already done the homework for you. We have excellent relationships with companies all over the U.S. and Canada to meet your business’s linen service needs.

Have you ever played Rock Paper Scissors? Rock beats scissors, scissors beat paper, paper beats rock. You know the rules. Now a days there are variations to this classic game. Some argue that rock can break through paper. I played with my nephew recently and he threw in lava, which is apparently the ultimate hand. It destroys rock, paper, and scissors. Well, when it comes to restaurants: Cloth Napkins beat Paper Napkins – Every Time!
