Grant Harrold a.k.a The Royal Butler highlights Dine Out Week

As the hospitality industry continues to feel the strain of inflation, rising costs, and the post-pandemic pinch, your local restaurants and cafés need your support now more than ever.

33% of people can’t wait for restaurants to have a no phone policy. Silent mode isn’t just for phones – expect phone-free zones, lockers, or even “no scroll” signs. Full attention at the table will be deemed peak etiquette as we crave human connection in an AI world.

With Brits admitting to dining out less frequently over the past six months due to inflation, and research by Lightspeed shows 44% expect to cut back even further in the next six months. The Royal Butler Grant Harrold is on a mission to encourage people to Dine Out.

Aston spoke to etiquette expert and former royal butler to King Charles III Grant Harrold and Liam Crooks from Lightspeed.
