Q:
What is the difference between in a restaurant and at a restaurant ?
A:
This one is hard to explain. Both are technically correct, but we use “at” a restaurant more frequently and naturally. Same with other locations.
Home would be “I’m at home.”
The store would be “I’m at the store.”
The only time I truly think “in a restaurant” would be natural, is if someone is looking for you, at which you would say “I’m in the restaurant” or “I’m inside the restaurant.”
Another exception might be:
Man on the phone: Why are you whispering?
Woman: I’m in a restaurant.
But again, they both mean the same thing, it’s just a matter of sounding natural.
