What do off-premise sales include?

1. On-site dining

2. Food take-out, drive-through, and delivery

3. Catering events

4. Conferences

The correct answer is: Food take-out, drive-through, and delivery

Off-premise sales refer to transactions where food and beverages are purchased at a location other than where they are consumed. In this context, the correct answer, which encompasses food take-out, drive-through, and delivery, illustrates various methods through which customers can enjoy food from a venue without dining in. This aligns directly with the concept of off-premise sales as these services allow customers to take food away from the establishment or have it delivered to their location, providing convenience and accessibility. In contrast, on-site dining does not qualify as off-premise sales, as it involves customers consuming food and drinks at the restaurant or facility. Catering events might seem relevant to off-premise, but they typically indicate a specific service to larger gatherings or functions rather than the general, convenient transactions seen with take-out or delivery. Similarly, conferences involve organizing events that often include catering on-site, which again does not fit within the definition of off-premise sales.
