Quick question:

What music would you like to hear when you enter a mid-end burger "restaurant"?

I'm currently in the planning process of opening one, and I have a pretty good idea of everything else other than the music

I like it to be a little bit more on the rustic/industrial side, not full blown pipes everywhere, but mostly with the wood, I was thinking something a bit more minimal, but please tell your opinions on that, can't have something only I like.

At first I was thinking about one of those lofi jazzy, hip-hop mixes, but I don't really know the public opinion on those.

Also classic rock and pop are the safest bets for a restaurant. You'll offend some faggot it you play anything else.

I go to a place maybe once every 1.5 to 2 weeks which is essentially this: beer names written in chalk on a wall, varyng constantly, with no additional information. If you want to try it you can but it’s like a faggot detector, for most people a pint is a taste. It serves chicken: fried, grilled, sandwiches, wings. It has sports on at all times. If an “important” game is live, the audio is played. At all other times background music is played, which varies. One thing that never varies is that the music is always completely uncensored. The staff is attentive but aloof. The bar is full service, the rest is self-service.

This is fucking genius because it makes it a perfect place for people to be alone together. I can drop in, order a pint of Pine Cone or some dumb shit, I don’t have some faggot digital infoboard telling me IBUs, since the staff is fairly aloof nobody cares if you just have one and leave, or if you go whole hog with a basket of spicy chicken and have seven more pints.

If you want full service, you get it, if you want to order up front, you get it. If you want to phonefag shitpost, you can, if you just want to blank out and stare at sportsball or Mongolian dirt bike racing you can as well. The only notion that you are valued or noticed in any way is that if they pour any short pints at the end of a keg, some random regular will get it free on the downlow.

It’s literally 4chan, the restaurant/bar and this is what makes it so fucking comfy, particularly when I’ve had a tough day and am looking to unwind prior to going home to whatever current problem my wife has.

Depends on the atmosphere you're going for, the type of menu and customer base you wish to serve, as well as the interior decor.

If it was my restaurant, this would be my first choice. Not too overbearing or obnoxious, but not too subtle to go unrecognized

imo classic rock is a bit too overused, but it's tried and true i suppose. may i ask the general demographic where you are opening this place? Also i think the lofi jazzy hip hop mix stuff is a fantastic idea if it's a younger crowd you're targeting.

I like music when I enter a restaurant, but not when seated. If you're serving burgers-stuff some classic rock. Folk music can also be really good, depends on menu. No upbeat pop! I'm here to relax and eat a nice meal, not to party.

If you room, you can obviously have a foyer with music and a bar, and seating on behind the bar or something similar, but you'd still need to make sure the restaurant looks comfortably full to get customers.
