Amenity Hub · 14 Property Types
On-site Food and Beverage (F&B) covers restaurant, bar, cafe, banquet, and concession operations integrated into another property type. The amenity is performance-critical in hotel + resort (F&B revenue per occupied room is a USALI Schedule 4 KPI), marina + golf-course (F&B drives non-slip / non-rounds revenue), casino-resort (multi-outlet dining is a draw), life-science campuses (cafeteria + cafe = tenant amenity), trophy office (in-building F&B replaces lobbies in 2026 era), stadiums + theme-parks + convention-centers (per-capita F&B is the second-largest revenue line after admission), and food-hall (F&B IS the property type). Performance is measured in F&B revenue per occupied room (hospitality), per-capita F&B spend (entertainment + venue), F&B capture rate against non-resident traffic (golf, marina, hotel destination dining), beverage cost percentage (target 18-25%), and Prime Cost (target below 60-65% — see Restaurant property type for the full F&B accounting framework). Outlet mix matters: signature chef-driven restaurant + lobby bar + grab-and-go drives different economics than buffet + pool bar + room service.

Common Questions
F&B is integrated into hotel, resort, luxury, boutique-hotel, casino-resort, marina, golf-course, life-science campus, trophy office, stadium, theme-park, convention-center, food-hall, and corporate / hospital / university campus. F&B IS the property type for restaurant, bar-nightclub, cafe-coffee, ghost-kitchen, food-hall, catering, brewery-winery — see the FOOD AND BEVERAGE sector hub.
Standalone restaurants (FOOD AND BEVERAGE sector) are operating businesses where F&B is the entire revenue model. On-site F&B is a revenue line + amenity layer within another property type (hotel rooms, golf course rounds, stadium events). USALI 11th Edition tracks on-site hotel F&B as a Schedule 4 minor operating department; standalone restaurants run their own P&L without USALI overlay.
In hospitality, F&B revenue mix above 30% of total revenue (typical of resort + luxury) drives TRevPAR-based valuation premium. In marina, F&B revenue per slip is a comparable metric to per-foot rate. In stadium / theme-park, per-capita F&B spend is the second-largest valuation lever after attendance. In trophy office, in-building F&B is increasingly required to compete for tenants — affects rent + occupancy.
