It is forecast that the foodservice sales will grow at a CAGR of 15.8% between 2022 and 2027 as the Covid-19 dies down and customer choose to enjoy the full service restaurants more often. All the subcategories grow as it is expected at the strong CAGR varying from 9.6% (Chained Pizza Full-Service Restaurants) to 19.6% (Independent Pizza Full-Service Restaurants) from 2022 to 2027.
The adoption of a similar strategy offers full-service restaurants the opportunity to leverage the expected influx of visitors from Mainland China when Hong Kong reopens its border in early 2023 which will help foodservice to recover to certain level (Euromonitor 2023).

Limited-service restaurants
Compared with pre-pandemic year 2019, consumer spending on the limited-service restaurants declined to US$3,534.1 million and US$3,584.1 million respectively in 2021 and 2022, at the negative growth of −0.6% from 2017 to 2022. For the chained limited-service restaurants, consumer spending decreased to US$3,060.1 million in 2022 compared with US$3,343.0 million in 2019, growing negatively at a CAGR of −0.4% from 2017 to 2022. For the independent limited-service restaurants, consumer spending decreased in 2020, 2021 and 2022 compared with 2019, growing negatively at a CAGR of −1.7% from 2017 to 2022.
Many limited-service restaurants looked to expand their outlets to residential areas as there are expectations for this trend to remain relevant in the coming years. For example, McDonald's recently opened an outlet in Kwun Tong, which is considered a residential area. It is expected that sales through home delivery will remain a relevant source of income in the future due to increasing familiarity with online ordering, and hence limited-service restaurant operators are also likely to continue to form partnerships with popular delivery platforms for effective marketing campaigns (Euromonitor 2023).

Cafés and bars
Sales of café/bars plummet in 2020 (US$511.3 million), 2021(US$638.5 million) and 2022 (US$577.8 million) compared with US$1,079.2 million in 2019. The CAGR growth for cafés/bars was −11.6% between 2017 and 2022, in which chained cafes/bars was −0.5% and independent cafes/bars was −17.8%. Sales of some subcategories started to rebound in 2022 although the total cafes/bars sales (chained and independent) still lower than the 2019 level.
Due to the severity of the fifth wave in the first quarter of 2022, foodservice channels such as bars/cubs were negatively impacted by tightened social distancing measures. Hence, the government offered financial relief under the fifth round of the "Anti-epidemic Fund", where nightclubs, karaoke establishments, and bars that are required to close their entire licensed premises as directed under the Prevention and Control of Diseases Regulation, were eligible to apply for an additional HKD25,000 subsidy. This financial aid gave some businesses a chance to survive for longer (Euromonitor 2023).

Instead, it is often considered a meeting place for younger consumers over the weekend (Euromonitor 2023).
