From the balcony of my hotel room in San Diego I could see this cute little cafe/deli Spicy Pickle but wasn’t sure if it was worth checking out since there were so many great restaurants in the area. One day on the way out I decided to stop there to grab a quick bite to eat. I really liked the interior design and wall art as it had a vintage feel to it. Oh and I ordered the med sub. Definitely tasty.
It’s a great feeling when you two of the things you love so much come together all at once…great branding and great food! When I dine at a restaurant I want delicious food surrounded by a pleasant atmosphere (usually the interior being well designed representing the brand makes it even better!). When I went to Burger Lounge in San Diego it had both of these. I was surrounded by walls of enticing words about the food I was going to receive and was food was everything the walls said mouth watering, juicy and scrumptious just to name a few.
Last week after dinning at one of my favorite pizza spots Luzzo’s amongst many discoveries I made that night Plump Dumpling was definitely one of my favorites. I love Asian food especially dumplings! I really enjoyed the happiness portrayed in their signagae and interior space through the graphic/logo.
Last week I went to one of my favorite chefs, Bobby Flay’s restaurant Bobby’s Burger Palace. The signage was very bold and popped. The interior design of the restaurant was very modern and stylish. And of course my blue cheese burger was delicious along with my sweet potato fries. Little did I know Pentagram designed this identity system and restaurant interior.
The restaurant Hare & Tortoise was across the street from my hotel in London. I really liked the logo design/signage of this restaurant. Then when I checked out there website I really loved the web design of the site.
During my travels in London one day I was riding on the bus and saw this restaurant front and my first thought was wow awesome typography! So at the next stop I got off the bus and proceeded to go to the Spaghetti House and take a picture of it all because of it’s unique type solution. Again two great things great signage and great Italian food. Once I was home I looked at there website and was happy to see the branding was consistent from the store front, the interior of the restaurant, menu design and also the website. The typographic solution to there branding is what makes this Spaghetti House far from ordinary.
