Typical profit margin
Nearly 60% of restaurants say rising costs and shrinking margins are their #1 challenge. Every wasted marketing dollar comes straight off the bottom line.
Marketing for restaurants & cafés
Full Tables. Direct Orders. Regulars Who Come Back.
Geo-targeted Meta ads that hit phones at dinner-decision time, mouth-watering creative shot from your actual menu, and ordering pages you own — so the margin stays in your kitchen, not a delivery app's pocket.

The Math Every Restaurant Owner Is Fighting
Industry-wide numbers — not your cooking, not your service. Our job is to change your side of the equation.
Lost to delivery apps
Commission, service fees, and "marketing boosts" quietly eat up to a third of every third-party order. The apps own your customer — and your data.
Empty-table nights
Rent, staff, and utilities run seven days a week whether the dining room is full or not. Off-peak losses are the silent margin killer.
Try It Yourself
What Are Delivery Apps Really Costing You?
Drag the sliders — see what the ~30% platform cut adds up to over a year, and what shifting half those orders direct would keep in your kitchen.
Paid to delivery apps per year (~30%)$65,520
Kept if half those orders went direct$32,760
Every direct order skips the commission entirely — and you keep the customer's contact for repeat-visit campaigns. That's the system we build: ads pointing at ordering pages you own.
What We Build For You
A Dining-Room Filler, Not Just Ads
Geo-Targeted Meta Ads
Campaigns aimed at diners within real driving distance, timed to dinner-decision hours — midweek offers for slow nights, launch pushes for new menus, and retargeting past guests who convert 3–5x better.
Direct-Order & Reservation Pages
Fast pages you own, so ad clicks become bookings and orders with no 30% commission in the middle — and the customer list stays yours for repeat-visit campaigns.
Food Creative That Triggers Appetite
Steam, pull-aparts, pours — hook-first Reels and dish photography cut from your actual kitchen, refreshed every few weeks so ads never go stale.

Restaurant Owner Questions
Asked Before You Ask
Do Meta ads actually work for restaurants?
Restaurants are one of Meta's best categories: food ads average a 1.67% click-through at around $0.72 per click, and restaurant lead campaigns convert near 18% — over 3x the cross-industry average. Facebook is also the #1 place diners discover new restaurants.
How do I stop losing margin to delivery apps?
Shift repeat customers to channels you own. We point ads at your own ordering and reservation pages and retarget past guests — warm audiences convert 3–5x better, and every direct order skips the 20–40% platform cut.
Can ads fill my slow weeknights?
That's the core play: midweek-specific offers, geo-targeted within driving distance, scheduled to hit phones in the hours people decide where to eat tonight.
What budget do I need?
Most single-location restaurants see meaningful results from $1,500–$3,000/month in ad spend — local clicks are cheap in this category. We'll tell you honestly what your market needs after the audit.
