Would a quality quick-service mexican restaurant (fast food style) do well in a college town?

I'm not talking about Taco Bell, but rather starting my own. It would have the same quality food as a sit-down, but served on plastic plates and to-go boxes instead of normal plates. I'm talking authentic mexican food at a lower price, but with the same high quality and made much faster.Would a quality quick-service mexican restaurant (fast food style) do well in a college town?
Yes, because most college students are the go. And are not willing to sit down ad eat. They are going to want to get a quick meal. Since you are saying the food is going to be authentic it will draw the health crazy people who arent up for McDonalds' fast greasy unhealthy food. Good Luck!!Would a quality quick-service mexican restaurant (fast food style) do well in a college town?
Why? They already HAVE Taco Bell. You'd just be competing against them. You'd be just another restaurant.



Also, you'd have to define "Mexican." Inner country, like Guadaljara? Yucatan? Most "Mexican" food in the US, even so-called "authentic" is a riff on Tex-Mex.



If you want to make real money, open a pizzeria that serves "to go" by the slice. Pizza is dirt cheap to make, and the markup is 500%.Would a quality quick-service mexican restaurant (fast food style) do well in a college town?
It could possibly work very well, as long as your near the campustown bars, and be willing to be open until 3 or 4 am. A friend of mine's mother made a killing by having a sub shop between the bars and dorms and staying open until the wee hours for all the partiers heading home. Just remember that location is key, nobody wants to stumble out of their way, and even renting a smaller space will still work.

Yes, it certainly would.People enjoy good food, at sit down restaurants that are reasonably priced.
Yes, Mexican food is one of my favorites. I would love to have an authentic Mexican fast food restaurant.



Good luck!
