Social media secrets for restaurants: Filling tables with instagram and beyond

In today’s restaurant world, it takes more than great food to draw in diners. Social media is your best ally in reaching potential customers, building loyalty, and boosting reservations. Here’s how to make the most of it.

1. Capture irresistible food photos

   Quality food photos grab attention fast. Use natural light for vibrant, appealing shots, focus on your signature dishes, and keep the backgrounds simple. If DIY isn’t your thing, consider a professional photographer to showcase your food at its best.

   
   

2. Leverage customer reviews

   Customer reviews are gold for building trust. Encourage happy customers to leave reviews, and reshare user-generated content to add authenticity. Consider adding a “reviews” highlight on instagram so new visitors see what people love about your restaurant.

   
   

3. Boost engagement with interactive content

   Social media thrives on interaction. Use instagram stories for polls, questions, and contests to bring followers closer to your brand. For an extra touch, try live videos to showcase behind-the-scenes action or Q&As with your chef.

   
   

4. Highlight your menu

   Create instagram story highlights to showcase menu categories, from appetizers to desserts. Keep them updated and add descriptions for each dish to create intrigue and help followers browse your offerings with ease.
