Cons

A one wall kitchen is least efficient plan as the cook has to walk from one end to the other end of kitchen many times while cooking. Due to its smaller size and single length it offers a very limited counter space and difficult for multiple cooks to work together at same time. Due to lack of counter space sometime it is necessary to utilize a kitchen island for preparation of food or adding the work center. Lack of storage space as compared to other kitchen arrangements, for example, no corner base/upper cabinet which increases the functionality of the kitchen as compare to other kitchen layouts.
