Roadway Cafés - Top 5 Myths
The DOT Dining Out Program has kicked in but from what we’ve been reading in the news, there’s mixed emotions and confusion. So we thought we’d help open up your options and bust those myths!
Myth No 1 💫
I’ll need to tear down and rebuild my roadway café each season.
Not with strEATery. We’ve designed our Roadway Café to be modular in design - the result? A beautiful piece of clever engineering. A structure like no other, it’s entirely made up of independent parts and crucially, metal! It’s built on a pod system, so you can scale and size it to your outdoor dining needs. So when off-season starts in November, because it’s not wood (like the temporary program dining sheds) you don’t need to tear it down! And in April, you can put it back up again.
It’s yours to keep - so assemble and dissemble it quickly and easily, for as many seasons as you want.
But you don’t need to worry about the logistics of doing it yourself, because we do it all the heavy lifting for you, as part of our storage service. So you can have peace of mind that your roadway café will be safe and secure when you’re not using it.
Myth No 2 💫
Off-season storage is expensive and a huge headache to organize!
Not with strEATery.
Our off-season storage service is budget-friendly and drama-free because we do everything for you - scheduled to suit you.
So you can get on with the important and fun stuff.
We can:
👉 Tear down your old shed
👉 Assemble your new roadway cafe on a date of your choosing
👉 Dissemble it in November on your chosen, scheduled date
👉 Transport, store, and take great care of it until the new season starts.
👉 Renew your storage contract and we’ll do the whole thing again
Well, that’s easy! 😀
Myth No 3 💫
Dining sheds are unsafe, hard to clean, and a haven for unwanted loiterers and rats.
Not with strEATery!
Our Pods and barriers are made of metal - not wood - which means they are more durable, easier to clean and one of the safest on the market 🎸
The floor door of each Pod is hinged and able to be lifted/secured for an even cleaner environment 🛁
We’ve now also added a locking mechanism to prevent loitering during non-business 🔐
We’ve designed our Roadway Cafés with safety and cleanliness front of mind for your peace of mind! ✌
Myth No 4 💫
The new regulations mean my cafe won’t be beautiful and unique.
Not with strEATery!
Just because there are rules in place, it doesn’t mean you can’t have some fun and stand out!
strEATery Roadway Cafés meet all the DOT Dining Out Program requirements AND…
Because they are made of order (not off the shelf) they are beautifully designed and customizable to your business 🦄

Myth No 5 💫
The cost of it all - it just isn’t worth it!
Not with strEATery!
We’ve got you covered.

Our cafés are classed as a piece of equipment and asset on your balance sheet that can be depreciated.

It’s a no brainer!
