               2.2.4 PRICE AND VALUE

                   Price fairness refers to judging whether the result of achieving a result is accepted by customers (Bolton and Shankar, 2003).
            Likewise, customers' prices for a product can be a measurement tool for the quality level a company offers (Soriano, 2003). Price is a key
            factor influencing the company's brand image (Campbell, 1999). Therefore, if the price unfairness or not acceptable to customers  will make
            the company has negative word-of-mouth, and customers will purchase products from other competitors. Thus, the most important factor in
            encouraging customers to visit the company again is getting a good value that matches the product's price or service (Yuksel and Yüksel,
            2002).


            2.3 HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENT

               2.3.1 QUALITY OF FOOD

                 There is a significant relationship between customer satisfaction towards the quality of food and customers' willingness to buy the
               product again from a company (Oh, 2000). Today's customers expect companies' food to have a high quality of freshness (Chamhuri and
               Batt, 2015). The key factors of customers visiting a company are quality of food because quality of food is the core attribute of a food
               company (Sulek and Hensley, 2004). Similarly, Vangvanitchyakorn (2000) pointed out food quality as the most important aspect for
               customers' overall evaluation of companies. Furthermore, the quality of food is the main factor affecting customers' overall satisfaction
               and behavioural intentions (Gagić et al., 2013). The important factors of customers' evaluation of food companies are based on food
               quality (Susskind and Chan, 2000). Based on the explanation given above, the following research hypotheses are proposed:

                H 1 : Quality of food has a significant positive influence on customers' overall satisfaction.

                2.3.2 QUALITY OF SERVICE

                   The quality of service means evaluating service quality by comparing customers' expectations of the company's service with the
               customer's insight and experience of the experience of service (Parasuraman, Zeithhaml, and Berry, 1994). Yuksel and Yusel (2002)
               believe  that  service  quality  greatly  influences  the  market  level  of  customer  satisfaction.  According  to  Inkumsah  (2011),  customer
               satisfaction  was  influenced  by  the  company's  service  quality  level  to  customers.  Garg  (2014)  pointed  out  that  the  services  affect
               customers'  organisation  perceptions.  Küçükaltan  (2017)  claimed  that  even  if  it  is  the  same  service,  customers  will  have  different
               judgments and satisfaction because they have different views on the service. If the company's service cannot exceed the customer's
               expectations, the customer's satisfaction towards quality of service is low; if the service exceeds their expectations, then perceived quality
               of service is high (Akbaba and Kilinc, 2001). Based on the explanation given above, the following research hypotheses are proposed:

                 H 2 : Quality of service has a significant positive influence on customers' overall satisfaction.

               2.3.3 QUALITY OF SETTING

                  Several studies have shown that comfort, environment, cleanliness, business hours, and days greatly influence  customer satisfaction
               and customers' willingness to revisit (Liang and Zhang, 2009). Various scholars (Flegal et al., 2010; Norhati and Fadzil, 2013; Raman
               and Chinniah, 2011) have determined the relationship between food information and quality and the food distribution environment.
               Based on the explanation given above, the following research hypotheses are proposed:

               H 3 : Quality of setting has a significant positive influence on customers' overall satisfaction.

               2.3.4 PRICE AND VALUE

                      The price and value can greatly affect customers satisfaction (Martin-Consuegra et al., 2007). Soriano (2003) concluded that
               customers' expectations towards quality depend on the price of products and services. When price rises, the expectations towards the
               quality of products and services also increase. He also concluded the price (value) of food and service as the key  to increasing customer
               satisfaction. In the same study, they showed that food prices are as important as other determinants of satisfaction. If the prices are unfair
               can make to bad results, such as increased customer complaints, high dissatisfaction towards the company, reputation decreased, and
               customers  not  or  less  to  coming  back  again  (Rothenberger,  2015).  Based  on  the  explanation  given  above,  the  following  research
               hypotheses are proposed:

               H 4 : Price and Value has a significant positive influence on customers' overall satisfaction.
