Whether you are preparing to open your brand new restaurant or are an experienced owner looking to refresh your establishment, refurbishing a restaurant can get very expensive, very quickly.

Decorating using tongue and groove wall panels can be a great way to conveniently, quickly and affordably give your restaurant space a new look. Our restaurant wall panels can be used throughout the space, from the kitchens to the restrooms and, of course, in the dining area. Below are just a few of our favourite products for those selecting restaurant wall panels, with our thoughts on how they can be used throughout your restaurant.

Best restaurant wall panels for the dining area

When selecting restaurant wall panels for the dining space in your restaurant, it’s all about picking the panels that fit the atmosphere and ambience you are looking to create for your patrons, as well as the impression you want people to have of your restaurant.

For example, eateries that aim to deliver a casual, traditional dining experience (such as bistros or gastropubs) might keep it simple and opt for exposed brick. We offer a range of brick effect wall panels that can be used to create the exposed brick look without the hassle and cost of the real deal. Our traditional Red Brick Matt PVC Panel is perfect for replicating the classic exposed brick look, while our Grey Brick Matt Effect PVC Panel is ideal for those looking to put a modern spin on this trend.

For restaurants looking to keep it modern and contemporary, why not get in on the Slat Wall Panels trend? 3D slat wall panels have soared in popularity over the last few years, having been a favourite within Scandinavian interior design for a while. These restaurant wall panels can be used to create a feature wall within your restaurant or can be installed throughout your dining space. The Pure Oak Slat Wall Panel Large Design panels and Anthracite Oak Slat Wall Panel Large Design panels are amongst our favourites within this range, each offering a cool, uber-modern look.

If you’re a more high-end restaurant offering fine dining, your choice of restaurant wall panels should reflect this. Our Natural Stone Pennine PVC Shower Panels offer a look that’s rustic yet contemporary, giving any restaurant space an upmarket modern feel. Our Vox Vilo Piedra PVC Panels are also ideal for those looking to create a sleek, modern space that feels sophisticated and cool.

Whatever look you’re trying to achieve within your dining space, you can use restaurant wall panels to do it. It’s simply a matter of picking the right panels for the overall ‘vibe’ of your restaurant.

Best restaurant wall panels for kitchen areas

Restaurant wall panels make a great alternative to tiles or metal cladding within your restaurant’s kitchen. Our kitchen wall panels range is full of products that can be used to great effect within the food preparation areas of any restaurant.

When it comes to panelling your restaurant’s kitchen, the most important things to consider are that your panels are waterproof and easy to clean. Every panel within the DBS Bathrooms range is 100% waterproof and is designed for easy maintenance. Unlike tiles, our panels don’t require grouting or feature any hard-to-reach crevices where bacteria can quickly build up – many of our panels can simply be wiped clean, making for easy cleaning and a more hygienic workspace. Keep in mind, however, that if you intend on installing our panels behind the hob in your kitchen, you will need to cover them with a sheet of heat-proof glass to prevent the material from warping.

We’d recommend using a plain, light-coloured panel within your restaurant’s kitchen to make cleaning and maintaining your workspace as efficient and as accessible as possible. Our Gloss White PVC Panel and Gloss White Chrome PVC Panel are both excellent choices for restaurant kitchens, offering simplicity, convenience and easy maintenance.

Best restaurant wall panels for restrooms

Your restaurant’s bathrooms are an extension of the main restaurant space, so the restaurant wall panels in your restrooms should reflect the style of your establishment whilst also appearing clean and well-maintained at all times.

With so many panels within the DBS Bathrooms range, you are bound to find the ideal wall panels for restaurant bathrooms of all sizes and styles. For example, you can create a luxurious modern look using marble wall panels, which offer all the elegance of marble without the great expense and hassle involved with the real thing. Our Beige Marble PVC Panel is perfect for creating a sophisticated space in your bathroom restrooms.

Alternatively, our tile effect wall panels are an excellent choice, offering both simplicity and style. The London Tile Effect Gloss White PVC Panel is a particularly versatile option and will look at home within a range of bathroom spaces, whether you are going for industrial chic, minimalism, cool and contemporary or almost any other bathroom style.

We offer thousands of decorative wall panels in many different designs, including sparkle wall panels, stone effect wall panels, patterned wall panels and more. All can be used as restaurant wall panels, allowing you to create the perfect dining space, bathroom or kitchen area for your restaurant.
