Cleanliness is arguably the most important quality your restaurant must-have if you want to reel in customers, satisfy them, and keep them coming back for more. Even the best menu and most competitive prices won't be enough to make you successful if customers fear they'll get food poisoning from your restaurant or have to contend with a dirty environment while eating. Unfortunately, most restaurant owners don't realise just how many particularly dirty areas are in their establishments--particularly those who rely on the wait staff to take care of the cleaning. Read on to learn about how commercial cleaning services can address the top dirtiest places in restaurants. 

1. Bathrooms

Unsurprisingly, bathrooms are often one of the dirtiest areas in any restaurant. As an environment, bathrooms are naturally prone to germs, and most restaurant staff tend to avoid cleaning them as much as possible because of how unpleasant the task can be. Of course, a dirty bathroom can quickly spread germs to patrons, instantly put people off their food, and even emit smells into your dining areas. As such, it's always best to get a professional cleaning team to take care of your bathrooms. With frequent deep cleaning, your bathrooms can look so spotless, you could almost eat in them.   

2. Tabletops

Tabletops are the first thing your customers focus on before their plates even hit the table. As such, if they're remotely dirty, you'll instantly make a bad impression on your customers. On top of that, germs from tables can spread to plates and cutlery, putting your patrons at risk of getting sick. But while keeping them clean is important, they often end up being one of the dirtiest parts of a restaurant because they're so heavily used. That's why it's best to have tables wiped down of fingerprints and food spills between each diner as well as deep cleaned at the end of each day. 

3. Kitchen 

Your kitchen is perhaps the most important part of your restaurant when it comes to cleanliness, but it can also be the dirtiest. There are so many sources of germs in your kitchen, from raw meat juices on counters to expired food in refrigerators, cupboards, and rubbish bins. Chefs tend to work under high pressure as it is, so there's little time to keep things clean amidst fast-paced cooking and serving. But if you don't keep the kitchen clean, you open yourself up to the risk of giving patrons food poisoning, attracting pests, and omitting foul odours that put people off their food. A professional cleaning team will allow your chefs and waiters to focus on the food without having to worry about keeping everything spotless.
