Movie Memorabilia: Tips to Open a Movie-Themed Restaurant - Entertainment - Movies

Are you considering using a movie theme for your new restaurant? Restaurants usually have their own unique atmosphere based on the decor. Movie memorabilia and photos with celebrity autographs can really set the mood for a snazzy dining establishment. Here are some things to consider before buying a whole lot of memorabilia and movie products.

Location of Your Restaurant

It's important to choose a movie-based theme that fits well with the surrounding environment and community. Is your restaurant located at the heart of a busy city or in a rural setting? Is it located in a hopping tourist area? Is the local scene primarily family-oriented, romantic, all business, or a more casual scene? These might not seem important when considering a theme for your restaurant, but you'll want your restaurant to blend well with the local scene and appeal to the people nearby.

Type of Movie Memorabilia

If you feel your restaurant's type and location fit the criteria to have a movie-based theme, then start thinking of ways to decorate. Will you purchase all types of movie memorabilia, or just products from a certain era (such as 50s and 60s movies)? Will there be a constant theme throughout, such as action, romance, western, or other? You can also relate the movie theme to the type of food you plan to serve, such as Italian style romance movies with Italian or Mediterranean food or old-style 50s and 60s movies with traditional burgers and shakes!

Restaurant Movie Decor Ideas

There are number of ways to decorate with a movie theme. Movie wall art and decor can be hung in the welcome lobby or foyer, on walls above dining tables, and even around the checkout counters or bar. You can easily find great photos with celebrity autographs and framed movie posters online. Signed or autographed guitars can be hung from the ceiling or placed in floor displays.

If you don't want to focus only on movie memorabilia decor, you can add sport or music memorabilia as well. Signed photos of famous sports players from the past and today can be a great addition. Get photos of Triple Crown winners, such as a Secretariat Triple Crown horse photo. The decor possibilities are endless whether you want an all-movie them or a blend of movie, music and/or sport memorabilia.

Hints for Tourist Areas

In tourist areas, a movie-themed restaurant with amazing food can be a huge hit with locals and tourists! Make it appealing to visitors as an "attraction" instead of just an ordinary restaurant. Hire singers and entertainers, host contests, and find other ways to make guests want to return year after year. This will ensure that your restaurant will stay busy even after its "newness" has worn off. Work with local visitor centers and coupon book companies to ensure your restaurant's coupons get in the hands of tourists every busy season. Coupons will bring in newcomers as well as repeat visitors.

Check with online stores that specialize in movie memorabilia and authentic autographed products and photos. With delicious food and fabulous movie memorabilia decor, your restaurant will be the talk of the town!
