On February 14, it is the feast of love, of course, but especially that of traders, starting with restaurateurs. If it is not very original, the French are still numerous to take their beautiful or their beautiful eating outside the evening of Valentine’s Day. Failing to know what they were touching in the ears between two clogs, we were able to scratch some interesting figures on this gastronomico-romantic evening thanks to the Sunday application.
The lovers who returned to do their business at their home and the curtains of the lowered restaurants, Sunday immediately compiled the figures of more than 61,000 additions paid in establishments throughout France. And the first thing that is obvious is that the French have not been pliers, dropping an average of 54 euros for two at the restaurant for Valentine’s Day, against an average at 41 euros on other days. So we took dessert, the rascals. It should also be noted that, in three quarters of the cases, the addition was settled by only one of the guests.
An addition at 980 euros in Savoy
If the average is therefore at 54 euros, some were nevertheless pleased far beyond this sum when others were more rates. It was in Brittany that lovers were the least spending with an average addition to 39 euros against an average at 78 euros in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. It is also in Savoy, a department in this region, that the biggest addition was set for an amount of 980 euros. It is perhaps the same couple of Savoyards who had broken the record in 2024 by dropping this time 1,650 euros for two meals.
Suddenly, even if it means not counting to delight your partner, you might as well take advantage of the place. The average time spent alone at the restaurant on this Valentine’s Day evening is 2h12. However, there are regions in which we drag more, especially in the Pays-de-la-Loire where the average duration of a dinner on Friday evening was 2:23. On the other hand, it must be believed that in the Hauts-de-France, the lovers were in a hurry to go after the program since the couples shipped their gastronomic head to 1h37.
