This study analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the quantitative composition of the national restaurant services market.

The quantitative composition of restaurant establishments by forms of entrepreneurial activity is analyzed. It is identified that the restaurant market of Ukraine became one of the most affected sectors of the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
