Imagine a business lunch venue where you and your guest have to shout because the restaurant offers live music at noon.
Certainly a pleasant, intimate and delightful spectacle during any other social occasion, but definitely not during a business lunch.
You and your guest need a pleasurable and comfortable ambiance. The restaurant of your choice must allow for a clear conversation and an easy exchange.
You need privacy, you need to hear each other and you need to be protected from neighboring conversations and loud noises.
And then there's service. Great customer service means making guests feel welcome and taken care of and inconsistent service means the server is nowhere to be found. A good server is prompt, friendly, available, exceptional even. Go to restaurants where people love to serve and make sure they are on your list of suitable business lunch restaurants.
“We have a business lunch where we know the food is good” someone told me recently, to which I add “and where the price is appropriate”. There are such things as good, reasonably priced gastronomic experiences in Montreal.
Good business lunch restaurants manage their costs effectively, handle their product quality properly and offer great business lunch menu ideas.
The best business lunch restaurants are as close as possible to your customer's office and as convenient as possible which, in most cases, must include parking facilities.
That said, location is also important for any business lunch venue since they rely on visibility and exposure.
Where there are shops there are restaurants and the island of Montreal offers a wide range of shopping and commercial streets.
Business lunches and dinners are excellent ways to conduct business in a relaxed setting, and so are coffee breaks business lunch. The face-to-face business lunch is still an important and effective way to build relationships.
During a business lunch, the business issues are raised at any time after the first dish but they usually come towards the end of the meal, normally after dessert.
At dinner however, the business topics are likely to be raised early during the meal. Business dinners also tend to evolve into a night out. There are fewer time constraints though people like to sit down to dinner at 7pm or at the latest 8pm, and the meal might be followed by a visit to a bar or a show.
Thank you for visiting Business Lunch Restaurants.
