[DO] No host or chefs at restaurant (Visit)

Whenever I visit any restaurant, no chef or hosts are present, so I can't sit at a table or order any food or drink. The fame setting in options isn't checked.

  • Hi lilsimsalot​ 

    Could you please provide the following information

    • Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
    • If you don't, did you never have any or remove them ?
    • Did you test multiple restaurants ?
    • Did you test multiple saves ?
    • Are they stuck outside somewhere or just nowhere around ?
    • Does it work if you own the restaurant ?
    • How many stations do you have ? Does it make a difference if you add more ?
  • I don't know how helpful this is, but I noticed restaurants stopped working as soon as the Enchanted by Nature event started.

    I have tried working without mods and changing the number of stations in the restaurant to the bare minimum to no avail. I have tried reloading the lot and the staff don't seem stuck, just non-existent. I have not tried owning the restaurant though.

    I have had this same issue since the last update. No one is at the restaurants to run them. No staff are there. I have tried taking my mod folder out and even starting a new save file without  any mods. The restaurants have no one there to run it.

    Platform: PC (EA app)

    Mods&CC: Many but I updated ALL and tested without Mods too

    Game version: 1.117.221.1020 

    I have the same problem after last update. Before update, restaurants worked fine.

  • I have just encountered this issue in a save that has never seen the use of mods or cc.  It isn't consistent across all restaurants in the same save, however, so I don't have any idea what triggers it in one but not others.
