SEcond KPI for restaurants
Average Ticket (Average Check)
The Power of a Few Extra Dollars. Average Ticket (or Average Check) is the amount each customer spends in your restaurant.
If you serve 100 customers a day at $10 each, that’s $1,000 in revenue.
If you raise the average ticket to $12, the same 100 customers bring in $1,200 a day.
That $2 difference equals $6,000 more revenue per month—without adding a single new customer.
Is it important?
Why Average Ticket Matters
Restaurants often focus only on bringing in more guests. But if every guest spends a little more, profit grows faster and more reliably. Average Ticket is shaped by:
Menu design & pricing
Upselling (adding drinks, sides, desserts)
Promotions & bundles
Staff training and incentives
The Danger of Discounts
Discounts can lower your Average Ticket and wipe out profit. A “buy one, get one 50% off” deal might fill seats, but it cuts your ticket size and inflates food cost.
Profit doesn’t just depend on traffic—it depends on ticket value.
