Plus, it can make a real difference in your marketing strategy and how easily people can find you.

They embrace the power of humor and let their imagination run wild, coming up with creative restaurant names that can’t help but make you think, “Now that’s a clever one!”

We collected a wide variety of restaurant name ideas that showcase the wit and cleverness of their owners.

I don't know if it started in another country, but this is a chain in Australia. They have lots of different toppings based on favourites from other countries, like one that's a mix of ketchup and mayo and another with a peri peri type sauce.
