Marketing for restaurants and cafés · Halifax, Nova Scotia
Make them hungry before they arrive.
Food is the most-watched content on every platform. A Halifax restaurant with a steady stream of dish reels, specials and behind-the-counter moments fills seats without discounting. We have done it for kitchens across the city.
What gets in the way
What we hear from restaurants and cafés
Quiet nights
The weekend is full; Tuesday is not. Content and campaigns can move demand to the nights you choose.
Posting from the pass
Nobody in a busy kitchen has time to shoot, caption and post. It happens in bursts, then stops.
Reviews decide
Prospective diners read reviews before they book. Getting happy guests to leave one takes a system.
What we do about it
Marketing built for restaurants and cafés
Dish and kitchen reels
Shot in a couple of hours during prep: the sizzle, the pour, the plate, the people.
Menus, specials and events
Launches, seasonal menus and event nights planned into a monthly calendar.
Channels run daily
Instagram, TikTok and Facebook posted, comments and messages answered, reservations pointed to the right place.
Local campaigns and review requests
Meta ads within your radius on the nights you want filled; automatic review requests after a visit.

Restaurants and cafés ask us
Do you shoot during service?
Usually during prep or a quiet hour, so the kitchen is not disturbed. Some content, like a busy dining room, is filmed during service with your agreement.
Can you help with our Google profile and reviews?
Yes. A complete Google Business Profile with fresh photos, and a simple review request after visits, is part of how local diners find you.
We have several locations. Does that work?
Yes. Content is planned per location where it matters and shared where it does not, with one calendar and one report.
Have you worked with Halifax restaurants before?
Many. Our earlier work with Halifax restaurants and cafés is on the work page.
Other industries

Listings seen, sellers calling, a name people recognise before they need it.
