Sound Quality in Cafes and Restaurants

Restaurants and bars are places where people get together. However, the environment is often quite noisy with music

and conversations often escalating in level. This project will investigate what makes a pleasant restaurant environment

from an audio point of view. Issues such as type and loudness of music and its effects on people’s perceptions of the

quality of the environment will be investigated. The project will span the areas of room acoustics, music production and

psychoacoustics to design and deploy a study to reveal how restaurant acoustic quality can be improved.
