We build restaurant branding with meaning.
We’re a branding and design agency that turns restaurant guests into loyal fans.
If you’re opening a new restaurant, or rebranding your restaurant to be more attractive to guests, you're going to need a strong brand identity to win the hearts (and stomachs) of guests.
We’re a restaurant branding agency that knows restaurants aren’t like branding for other businesses. A restaurant brand focuses on the complete customer experience with greater concentration, where each step unfolds and builds the guests’ experience.
Atomicdust is a branding agency for restaurants that combines strategy and creativity to make restaurant experiences become more meaningful to guests.
Because in restaurant branding – meaning is what matters.
We helped restaurant brands launch, re-invent themselves, redefine categories, exceed and delight customers.
Restaurant brands need a filter – what ties it all together?
When planning your restaurant concept and creating your brand, most people have a million ideas. Ideas of what the vibe of the restaurant will be like – from the art work in the bar area, the types of tables, down to the music selection.
The ideas aren’t always the most clear though. There’s a little of this one concept, and a pinch of this concept.
And if you’re working with a team, you also have the opinion of the architect, the ideas of the interior designer, the strategy of the PR team, and usually the pull of your friends and family telling you what to do.
Atomicdust’s restaurant branding work is foundational based on your ideas, and the input of your trusted advisors. We listen, learn, and take all things into consideration. Then we present a unified branding concept that takes into account everyone’s ideas, and creates a foundation for the brand that gets everyone on the same page.

When branding a restaurant – the one thing is the one thing.
The vision for your restaurant needs to be clear. Brands hold a place in a persons mind for a category. When someone says “fast food”, you probably immediately think of McDonalds. Then, maybe a handful of their competitors. The challenge that restaurant brands face is to never be second in their category – to create an identity for the restaurant that can’t be compared with anything else.
Building such a brand takes vision and focus. It takes one thing – a central, core idea that everything else is based on. That everything can be measured against.
Atomicdust helps restaurant brands across the country find and own that one thing.
