I was doing a new layout. did a lot of work on it too. Finally managed to fit 20 tables in this layout, but with a very long walk for the customers from front door to tables. I made sure there was a path to every chair and every table for both customers and waiters. What's more, i visually watched to make sure every chair and table was being used, and served. Yet I still have customers walking out with clocks over their heads for lack of place to sit. And I think it has something to do with the distance they have to walk to get to the seats.
