Most Efficient Layout Design? Picture Examples?

[stuntdoll]

Hi I am new to the game. I was wondering if there is a specific layout that I can use to increase my profits per day while using the smallest space possible.

Please Post Pics!

Here is my current layout.

I'm on my iPhone so my picture would probably come out pretty small (plus I'm level 92, lol)

But you have to arrange your tables so that they are closer to the door. That way, the customers can come in, find a chair quick, eat and then leave. My suggestion is to place your counters towards the back, and as mentioned--place your tables and chairs closer to the door.

Hope this helps! (:

OMG.. have you managed to overstock the restaurant with 5 ovens??????? I remember i could only do that doing fish and chips the whole day long))
until then, it doesn't a least bit matter..

thanks I added all the tables and chairs closer and my ovens in the back.Right now it seems like all i need is 20 tables and chairs to get max profit? I found a guide using the "L-design" ?

This is courtesy of fecsuper on the most efficient design, which requires a moved door:

This is the design without moving the door, again courtesy of fecsuper

Both of the above pictures work really well. For those of you who have 1 door, the design for 1 door is really good.

Thanks guys for the pictures. These are the designs i am using now. I don't have any gems so I'll be using the L design :)

Does the efficiency designs work both in-game and when you are away from the game or does it only work when you are in-game? I see so much designs that include like a million seat/tables that extends far away from the door which is clearly not efficient. I have a decently efficient design but the design is kind of boring. If the efficiency design works only in-game, then I'd probably change my design but if it works in both, then I'd probably have to keep my current design. Anyone have any idea?

I've been using the efficient layouts in RS and BS for a long time now. It definitely works when the game is open and when it's closed. I think that the ones that have the million tables are going more for looks/style rather than efficency. Personally, I try to go for both.

I realize this thread is 7 years old, but I think the info is pertinent and stands just as important now as it was then in 2013. My reply is to the two layouts above. They are definitely well thought out and look great. However, it struck me that there was a very low number of tables now. One thing you might want to consider, which strikes me as a problem with the two layouts shown above, is that they are not "Neighbor Friendly" so to speak. Let me explain. It is true they are efficient and compact and will provide income from customers. However, with a very small number of tables, one of two things is bound to occur. Either you will be forced to clear your tables a ridiculous number of times per day (assuming, of course, you have a fair number of neighbors, as most of us do) OR, you will end up with full tables the majority of the time and your neighbors will eventually become frustrated with visiting you, as they are unable to tip you since your limited number of tables are always full. Unless you have a stellar personality to keep them coming back, they will simply stop visiting at some point, or, drop you as a neighbor. I know for myself when I add a new neighbor and I see that he/she is new to the game with very few tables, this to me is different, as they are new and need help. I have the patience to help them along with the knowledge that (hopefully!) they will become loyal, reliable, and fun neighbors over time as they GROW and become bigger in size. Conversely, someone who is NOT growing and is doing it on purpose, however, is someone I would not consider keeping as a neighbor for very long.

I did not see that this thread had been locked or archived etc so am I allowed to add to the thread even years later?

One thing to consider with the two layouts shown above is that they are not "Neighbor Friendly" as I would call it. Let me explain. It is true they are efficient and compact and will provide income from customers and they only have to move a short distance to the tables. However, with a very small number of tables (20 or so), one of two things will occur. Either you will be forced to clear your tables a ridiculous number of times per day (assuming, of course, you have a fair number of neighbors, as most of us do) OR, you will end up with full tables the majority of the time and your neighbors will eventually become frustrated with visiting you, as they are unable to tip you since your limited number of tables are always full because neighbors take up 6 tips per visit and community visitors, 3 tips. This means 3 neighbors can tip you before you have to clear tables. I don't know about you, but my wrist would hurt from clicking so many times per day for a bunch of neighbors. Unless you have a stellar personality to keep them coming back, they will simply stop visiting at some point, or, drop you as a neighbor. I know for myself when I add a new neighbor and I see that he/she is new to the game with very few tables, this to me is different, as they are new and need help.

Decent points, but this is a thread about earning profit and the layout that may help with that. Which is why the layouts that some people have made are in a "L" or even slightly a "T" shape. Not about being neighbour friendly. Though that is great to consider if you're highly worried about that - but if not, this will work decently if not the best in earning profits the fastest.
