Cafeteria

(cafeteria)





A cafeteria is a type of restaurant in which there is notable service. Instead, patrons select items that they want, placing them on a tray, and then report to a cashier to pay.

As cafeterias require few employees, they are often found within a larger institution, catering to the clientelle of thatinstitution: for example schools, colleges and their halls of residence , department stores , museums and office buildings often havecafeterias.

At one time, cafteria-style restaurants dominated the dining-out culture of the Southern United States and there were several prominent chains of them: Morrison's, Blue Boar, and S& W among them. These institutions went into a decline in the 1960s with the rise of fast food and were largely finished off in the 1980s by the rise of "casual dining". However, newer chains, notably Luby's and Picadilly Cafteria, have arisen to fillsome of the gap left by the decline of the older chains.
