What is the ideal time for an eatery to open?

[Min George]

My friend is running a mini eatery and there has been various complaints from customers about their opening time saying it is too late. The eatery opens by 9am and my friend is having a hard time adjusting the opening time to be earlier than that.

What time should an eatery ideally open?

An eatery should be opened by 7 am at the latest, in case they have customers that want to patronize them for breakfast.

There are people that might have to order meals from an eatery at anytime. An eatery should always be on call at every time

I also feel that an eatery should open at around 7 am in the morning, since there are many people who may want to purchase breakfast before going to their office or workplace. Most offices start at 9 am ,

Eateries here usually open at 7-7:30 am especially those who offer breakfast.

You can run shift where some staff are around to take orders from 6am to capture more customers

There are certain factors to consider here. If it's an eatery that deals with breakfast, then I believe it should be open as early as 6am. If you are talking about a regular eatry, latest 8am they should be open and start making their preparation.

An ideal time for every eatery to open is by 7:30 any thing late there may tend to lose morning customers .

Eateries can afford to open as early as 5 am if they really want to stay ahead of the competition to accommodate early birds.
