Creating exceptional restaurant interiors is not a one-size-fits-all. Every food venue tells a story, and the interior must bring that story to life. BAPTT Group specialises in Custom Restaurant Interiors across the UK, offering full-service capabilities that span interior architecture, bespoke fabrication, technical development, and specialist fit-out. Whether you’re opening a flagship concept or refitting a high-volume franchise, BAPTT’s design-and-build solutions are tailored to the unique demands of the hospitality sector.
From Concept to Completion: The BAPTT End-to-End Process
Restaurant projects are high-stakes, time-sensitive, and technically complex. BAPTT simplifies the journey by offering a fully integrated approach: from early-stage design and concept development through to fabrication, installation, and aftercare. Our team of commercial interior specialists in the UK ensures everything runs through a single point of accountability. This makes for smoother workflows, fewer delays, and a final outcome that aligns perfectly with the brief.
Our project managers, interior architects, and on-site specialists work closely with clients at every phase, refining layouts, solving technical challenges, and ensuring compliance with building regulations. For restaurants in particular, we factor in operational flow, kitchen visibility, seating ergonomics, lighting dynamics, and the acoustics that shape customer experience. We don’t just build spaces, we craft environments that support both function and brand identity.
Custom Fabrication to Bring Brand Stories to Life
Bespoke fabrication is one of the areas where BAPTT truly shines. In our in-house workshops, we produce one-of-a-kind joinery, metalwork, signage, and display features tailored to the restaurant’s concept. Whether it’s handcrafted counters, open-kitchen pass stations, bar units, or banquette seating, we create solutions that go beyond catalogue choices. Everything is made to order, designed with purpose, engineered for durability, and installed with precision.
Our custom capabilities are especially valuable for multi-site operators and franchise brands, where consistency across locations must be balanced with local relevance. We produce elements that match brand guidelines down to the smallest detail while accommodating site-specific conditions and challenges. It’s what makes us a trusted restaurant interior contractor across the UK.
Integrating Technology and Atmosphere
Modern restaurants rely on more than just great food, they need ambience, interactivity, and efficiency. BAPTT integrates specialist lighting, acoustic treatments, and AV systems to create dynamic, sensory-driven spaces. From subtle downlighting and statement pendants to full AV integrations for immersive dining, we ensure every element supports the customer journey.
We also understand how lighting and acoustics impact not just aesthetics but service delivery and dwell time. Our team works closely with electrical and M&E consultants to deliver systems that are seamlessly embedded, functional, and future-ready. The result? Spaces that look good, sound great, and perform reliably under pressure.
Building in Live Environments
Delivering a full-scale fit-out in a live trading environment is no easy task. Restaurants often need to stay operational during refurbishments or must reopen under tight deadlines. BAPTT’s project teams are experienced in managing phased installations, out-of-hours work schedules, and strict health and safety protocols.
Our ability to work around trading hours means clients can continue serving customers with minimal disruption. We plan meticulously, communicate clearly, and adapt quickly, because in hospitality, downtime means lost revenue. Whether it’s a partial upgrade or a complete transformation, our team keeps the business running and the end goal in sight.
Navigating Design Constraints with Practical Expertise
Behind the scenes, restaurants come with a host of technical requirements: ventilation, fire safety, food hygiene, drainage, and storage efficiency. At BAPTT, these considerations are built into the design and development process from day one. We’re used to navigating the tight parameters of commercial kitchens and ensuring all materials and finishes comply with hygiene and safety standards.
Our technical designers collaborate with architects, chefs, and building control officers to deliver interiors that meet UK building regs and sector-specific compliance needs. From grease extraction systems and fire-rated surfaces to staff flow optimisation, we bring deep understanding and practical solutions to the table.
Collaboration That Drives Better Results
No great interior comes together in isolation. That’s why BAPTT takes a highly collaborative approach. We work alongside chefs, operators, marketing teams, landlords, architects, and brand managers to ensure every decision reflects the bigger picture. Our role is to act as both guide and partner, to offer insight, highlight opportunities, and problem-solve where required.
This is especially valuable in the early design stages, where we can advise on materials, lighting, buildability, and cost-efficiency before ideas go too far down the line. And because our team includes designers, makers, and project managers under one roof, communication is clearer and execution is faster.
In-House Production for Complete Control
What sets BAPTT apart from many contractors is our in-house production capability. Our workshops produce high-quality joinery, metalwork, and decorative finishes, giving us control over quality, cost, and lead times. For clients, this means greater transparency, fewer third-party delays, and a higher standard of delivery.
Whether it’s a one-off hero piece or a full interior package, our bespoke fabrication team ensures every item is made to specification. We welcome designers to collaborate closely with our makers, allowing ideas to be refined in real-time. It’s this hands-on capability that allows BAPTT to deliver on complex, time-sensitive, and brand-critical restaurant projects across the UK.
At BAPTT, we don’t just build restaurants, we build experiences. From concept to completion, our integrated approach means every element is considered, every challenge is managed, and every detail is executed to the highest standard.
