Introduction
A good flow in the breakfast dining room is key for creating a balanced atmosphere. It's very important that the logistics are planned well, both in the dining room and at the buffet. Guests shouldn’t have to search for something specific in the buffet, that’s why spoons and milk should be placed next to the cereals.

How can buffet design help with cost control?
Position low cost items in prominent position.
Cereals are the number one lower cost food item. Present a wide choice of Kellogg’s cereals with all complementary products in a prominent position next to the orange juices to encourage guests to start with cereals.
  
Exceptional breakfast offerings may well merit an upsell opportunity
 
Guests want to have value for money. The breakfast buffet is a special opportunity to create added value, with a wide choice of delicious food and special attention from friendly staff. Guests are often willing to pay additionally for a great breakfast experience. Securing a room booking is core to your inventory management. However, you may want to consider quoting breakfast separately or offering a very basic breakfast within the room price and upselling a full buffet breakfast or brunch.
