UK eating out at a three-year high, says research
Research done by Horizons in its Eating Out-Look report found that consumer eating out hits 3 year high at 72%.
According to the report, frequency of eating out grew up to 2.04 times in a two week period, while average spend went down to £14.07.
18-24 year olds eat out the most - but spend less, the report also found. The main reasons consumers give for eating out are meeting friends and convenience. Health and lifestyle are key factors affecting choice among consumers, and Italian is the favourite cuisine out of those surveyed.
Horizons Eating Out-Look report gives the detail behind all these statements for eating out behaviour over the Christmas period - with key facts trended over time, summer and winter.
