For venues with a fixed number of seats, how efficiently you use the space matters as much as how many covers you serve. Enter your daily figures below.

Seat turn tells you how many times, on average, each seat was used across the trading period. RevPASH — revenue per available seat hour — goes a step further by combining occupancy and spend into a single efficiency number, which is why it's a more complete measure of how well a venue is using its physical space than covers or revenue alone. A venue that looks "quiet" on covers but has a strong average spend can still post a healthy RevPASH; a venue that looks busy but is discounting heavily may not. See our restaurant KPIs guide for how this fits alongside prime cost and average spend as one of the handful of numbers worth tracking weekly.

Only the hours seats are actually available for service — not the full time the doors are open if part of that is setup, changeover or a closed period between lunch and dinner. Using actual service hours gives a more accurate RevPASH than using total opening hours.
It varies enormously by format — a quick-service café might turn seats 4–6 times across a trading day, while a premium dinner-only restaurant might turn once, sometimes twice. The more useful comparison is against your own venue's history and against your seating and service model, not a generic industry number.
Because revenue alone doesn't tell you whether you're capacity-constrained (fully booked, could earn more with more seats or hours) or demand-constrained (empty seats, need to drive more covers or spend). RevPASH, tracked over time, makes that distinction much clearer.
