"Meeting up with friends in the beer garden, having a relaxed meal with the family or simply enjoying the balmy nights with a glass of wine or a good cocktail - people love sitting outside until late in the evening in summer and being entertained. It's not just good food and drink that's important to guests, it's the atmosphere that makes them feel comfortable. You can make a lasting impression and show your restaurant in the right light, especially with the right restaurant lighting. In this article, we will show you how to ensure a guaranteed reunion and perfectly stage the outdoor area of your restaurant with gastro lamps. "
Gastro fairy lights are particularly popular and are used time and time again - whether brightly colored or plain white, a restaurateur can't go wrong with this outdoor lighting. They are usually installed in trees or They cut a fine figure when hung on bushes, but also on house walls or properties.
The catering fairy lights are available from skapetze® in various lengths up to almost 15m, so that they can be precisely matched to the respective conditions.
The drinks and dinner menu are usually served to the guests, so why not simply bring the light directly to the table? Candles are often the classic choice, but how about surprising your guests and trying something new?
Rechargeable lamps are therefore perfect as catering lamps, as they do not have an unsightly cable and do not go out in too much wind. They also provide far more light than simple candlelight, which really brings out the best in the food - after all, you eat with your eyes.
If you have the option of designing your outdoor restaurant lighting with pendant or suspended luminaires, you should definitely take advantage of this. Suspended from trees, roof struts or canopies, they create a wonderful atmosphere and let your restaurant shine in a high-quality glow - guaranteed to amaze your guests. These types of catering lamps are a regular eye-catcher and become part of your outdoor furnishings.
Illuminated pieces of furniture are definitely an eye-catcher, especially for bars and lounge areas . They combine light with furnishings and can be used as bar tables, side tables or stools. The LED furniture from Moree is the perfect lifestyle object and uses new technology to create a chic look that makes an impression.
Wall lamps are particularly suitable for lighting the entrance area or for tables near the house wall . They emphasize wall structures and patterned facades with their beam of light, allowing old brickwork to shine in new splendour.
They are often used for beer garden lighting with a lantern look, but the more modern versions are also suitable as gastronomy lamps.
In order to stylishly set the scene for the beer garden and outdoor catering area, you should not simply choose beautiful catering lamps at random, but always bear in mind that they should suit the occasion.
For example, the lighting in a café where people like to have breakfast requires completely different lighting conditions to those in a bar where guests go before going to a club. In a fast food restaurant, customers attach importance to different things than in a starred restaurant and this should also be reflected in the lighting.
In addition, the exterior restaurant lighting should of course match the interior lighting and be coordinated with it, as this is the only way to create a successful and harmonious overall impression. It is advisable to have a professional and individual lighting design carried out here, and we will be happy to help you with skapetze® and create a lighting concept for your catering business.

In addition, the IP protection rating generally applies to all outdoor luminaires, including outdoor catering lighting, as the catering lamps are constantly exposed to natural weather conditions, but should not be damaged by them.
This protection rating indicates how well the luminaire is protected against foreign bodies and water. For lights that are used outdoors, at least IP44 applies in order to be adequately protected against solid objects larger than 1 mm and splash water such as rain.
You too can create a great ambience in the outdoor area of your restaurant, café or bar with suitable gastronomy lamps or beer garden fairy lights.
