Construction Cost Estimate for a Fast Food Restaurant

RSMeans Quick Cost Estimates

The following analysis estimates the cost to build a fast food restaurant with face brick with concrete block back-up / bearing walls using US National Average costs from 2008 RSMeans cost data. Costs are derived from a building model that assumes basic components, using union labor for a 4000 square foot building.

Scope differences and market conditions can cause costs to vary significantly. To see an estimate of the costs to build a fast food restaurant in a specific city or metropolitan area, go to our index of fast food restaurant models by state.

NOTE: This cost estimate uses 2008 RSMeans data. A more accurate estimate using current RSMeans cost data is available on Means CostWorks - our online cost estimating tool.
