The Outdoor Dining Revolution

Since 2020, outdoor dining capacity has gone from a nice seasonal bonus to a commercial necessity. But the British weather makes uncovered outdoor dining unreliable for 8+ months of the year.

A PergoEnvision glass garden room solves this completely. Every PergoEnvision includes sliding glass doors as standard on all open sides — your outdoor dining area becomes a fully glass-enclosed room that operates 365 days a year. Guests dine with panoramic views in complete comfort whatever the weather, and you generate revenue in January as effectively as July.

Revenue Impact

A typical PergoEnvision installation accommodates 20–40 covers. At an average spend of £40–£60 per head, one evening service generates £800–£2,400 in additional revenue. The pergola pays for itself within the first season for most restaurants.

Why PergoEnvision for Hospitality

  • Sliding glass doors on all sides as standard — guests are in a fully enclosed dining room, not an exposed terrace
  • 180–220 km/h wind rating — handles exposed coastal and urban positions lightweight canopies cannot
  • 12mm tempered glass — commercial safety standards with lockable overnight security
  • Motorised louvred roof — open for al fresco on sunny days, closed and watertight when it rains
  • Optional infrared heaters — comfortable dining in all seasons
