What is Food Cost Calculator?

▾

A food cost calculator computes the cost of producing a recipe or menu item, and the food cost percentage relative to the selling price. Food cost percentage is the key profitability metric for restaurants — industry standard is 28–35%.

2Food cost % = Ingredient cost / Selling price × 100
3Ideal selling price = Ingredient cost / Target food cost %

Worked Examples

▾

Резултат:Food cost 25%

£3.50/£14.00 = 25% — good margin

💡

Pro Tip

Track food cost weekly, not monthly. A 3% variance noticed quickly is fixable; the same variance found 4 weeks later has already cost thousands in profit.
