When designing the interior of a restaurant, selecting paint colors is one of the most important choices you’ll make. The colors used not only impact the look of the space but also the psychology of customers. Before calling your commercial painting contractor, find out how these color choices might support your business.

Which Paint Colors Are Best for a Restaurant?

1. Yellow

Yellows and oranges create a positive, happy vibe that can work in a variety of establishments. Stick to muted shades or use it as an accent color along with light neutrals. Too much bright yellow or orange can be overwhelming, but when used in moderation, they uplift people’s moods, which may improve the overall experience in your establishment.

2. Red

However, it’s not a particularly uplifting color palette, so it’s often best suited for fast food or carryout restaurants where you want customers to move quickly.

3. Earth Tones

Green and brown are some of the most common colors found in nature, so people often associate them with health. They’re also known as calming shades, so they’re perfect for healthy establishments or restaurants where you want people to relax and enjoy the experience.

4. Neutrals

Neutrals create a sense of sophistication in a space. Light shades make a space feel open and airy, while black and gray set a dramatic mood.

Often, neutrals are preferred for fine dining establishments. However, you can use them in any setting, then add accent colors that support your brand and color psychology goals.
