Maybe people are realizing how terrible a value it is, you can make the place look as fancy as you want, you're still serving what's supposed to be cheap food for crazy prices. There is no possible way you can justify blaming the consumer when the CEO is making tens of millions of dollars, he doesn't do that fucking much, no one does.
this is a recession indicator
Woe is me if all these fast casual places go under.
If you're housed you can buy the exact same shit they heat up from frozen at a restaurant supply store and heat it yourself.
I’ve never seen a restaurant supply store in my life. What?
Use a search engine, you'll find one near you.
Best prices on cookware, frozen food, bdsm gear ..
No, that last one you get at the hardware store. Best rates on ropes, chains, lumber, and eye bolts.
They're like 1 and 1a in some order for sure.
If you've never needed restaurant supplies, that makes sense. There's lots of businesses out there you never hear of because you don't need their services.
As a side topic, that's something that's always fascinated me. Looking around at the various vehicles and shops that most people just see as background noise, there are so many industries that we take for granted unless we need that particular product or service. Lots of things done in the middle of the supply chain that the average consumer never sees. Commerce is an enormous machine with billions of hidden parts to it, and it's amazing it functions like it does even in times of crisis.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_It%27s_Made is about how everyday items are made and it's surprising what goes into things that we take for granted.

Oh I thought you meant a literal store

I don't know if this is a regional only thing but there are brick and mortar restaurant supply stores. You usually need a membership to buy from them but you can bulk buy the same food and supplies that restaurants buy.
There are also literal stores. I regularly visit a nearby US Foods "Chef'store"
