Interesting division you make there, I go to both "real", higher end restaurants and "low grade" pub restaurants. For me, the the reason is the same, convenience, laziness and lack of my expertise and willingness to cook.
Obviously I can judge a place based on the quality of service and food, but that's not the reason I've gone there in the first place.
