Foot traffic has increased when it comes to restaurants as consumers are prioritizing dining when it comes to discretionary spending.

That is a top finding from the Q1 Consumer Trends Report released by Gravy Analytics, which provides enterprise location intelligence.

The report analyzed food traffic data from Q1 2022 to Q1 2023 to assess how consumer behavior is changing across industries, according to a press release.

Q1 2023 saw consumers spend on dining out across restaurant types. While fast food restaurants (25%), ice cream shops (32%) and coffee shops (23%) continued to see the strongest foot traffic growth, restaurants like Italian (9%) and Mexican (13%) eateries and family-style restaurants (6%) saw healthy increases in foot traffic in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.
