Highlights are groups of Stories that you can create as folder sections on your profile. In most of these restaurant profiles, the Highlights are front and center, giving guests a glimpse of what each restaurant brand is all about. Unlike Instagram Stories, which disappear after 24 hours, Highlights allow you to keep your content on your feed for as long as you want. This means that you can save any Story you post in a Highlight, which is like an album or folder. For example, [Hiša Franko](https://www.instagram.com/hisafranko/) uses Highlights to showcase everything from their uniforms to their cat, Berta. Euskalduna Studio uses this feature to collect past Stories that are still relevant for new and existing followers to view, such as images from previous Four-Hands Dinners and saved Stories from users. ### Is Instagram useful for restaurants? Social media is now one of the primary ways that restaurants communicate with their customers. Websites are important, but the first impression most customers have of a restaurant is through its social media. In fact, [57% of customers would rather contact a business through social media or email than by phone.](https://fonolo.com/blog/2023/04/2023-customer-service-statistics/) So, yes, Instagram is more than good for restaurants—it's essential. And restaurants and bars are practically made for Instagram. All of the delicious food and drinks you serve are a feast for the eyes. People eat with their eyes first, and Instagram is your chance to whet their appetites and encourage them to make a reservation. ## Takeaways In short, you don't need to rely on rainbow-colored unicorn foods or physical spaces designed for Instagram-worthy photos. Instead, focus on creating personalized guest experiences. That's what guests really want. While beautiful food photos are a staple of Instagram, the best restaurant Instagram marketing goes beyond just sharing tasty pictures. It engages the audience with creative content and brand storytelling. \>\>\> Need more social media strategy ideas?

A reasonable starting point for this is 30k–50k followers; these users have perfected the art of #foodporn and have gained a devoted following as a result, but they aren't so ridiculous as to demand obscene sums of money to make your tagliatelle appear attractive (it already did). ### Is Instagram useful for the food industry? One of the most effective marketing tools a company can utilise is Instagram. Even before visiting your restaurant's website, for many, this is the first page they glance at to get a sense of its vibe. Additionally, it's how a lot of visitors first discover your restaurant! ### What role does Instagram play for restaurants? It gives you a technique to improve website traffic, which raises the quantity of online orders you get. It is a great marketing tool for letting your devoted customers know about a new dish or offer. It's an opportunity to interact with your clients. Instagram pages are designed to be social spaces. ### How can I set up a restaurant-specific Instagram account? Download the Instagram app from the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android). 1\. Create an account. 2\. Add your information. 3\. Change to a business account. 4\. Choose the category. 5\. Double-check your contact details. 6\. Complete your profile. ### How can I make my restaurant Instagram posts more visually appealing? To create standout food photos for your restaurant’s Instagram, use natural daylight near windows for soft lighting, and avoid harsh artificial light. Frame dishes using the rule of thirds, try overhead or close-up angles, and keep backgrounds clean and neutral. Add pops of color with fresh ingredients, and style plates with care, wipe edges and stack items neatly. Use simple props like utensils or hands for context, and keep a consistent look with your editing. Capture movement and people to bring warmth and variety. Together, these tips help you build an engaging, polished feed. ### What types of behind-the-scenes content attract more followers? The most attractive behind-the-scenes (BTS) content for restaurants on Instagram combines authenticity, storytelling, and a human touch. Here are types of BTS posts that tend to attract more followers and boost engagement: - **Kitchen Action and Food Preparation:** Show how signature dishes are made, including chopping, cooking, plating, or special chef techniques. Quick clips or time-lapses of your team at work provide excitement and authenticity. - **Team Spotlights and Day-in-the-Life:** Introduce chefs, servers, or other staff with mini-profiles, fun facts, or “a day in the life” videos. These posts build rapport and showcase the personalities behind your food. - **Candid Moments and Outtakes:** Share raw, unpolished moments—jokes, minor mistakes, or funny interactions—that reveal your staff’s personality and make your brand more relatable. - **Workspace Tours:** Give followers a look around your kitchen, prep area, or storage, highlighting unique equipment, organization methods, or décor. - **Special Projects and Prep for Events:** Document the process of preparing for a busy holiday service, catering event, or menu launch. This includes brainstorming sessions, ingredient selection, or staff meetings. - **Mini Tutorials and Chef’s Tips:** Offer short “how-to” videos, such as making a perfect poached egg or plating tips—educational and entertaining for foodies and home cooks alike. - **Product Unboxings:** Film new ingredient or equipment arrivals, sharing your first impressions and how you plan to use them. - **Testing and Experimentation:** Show recipe testing, sauce tasting, or plating experiments—not every try is perfect, and followers enjoy seeing the creative process. - **Staff Celebrations and Milestones:** Feature birthdays, work anniversaries, or group celebrations to show workplace culture and foster a sense of community. - **Customer Interactions:** Capture staff interacting with guests, either candidly or while serving, to give a warm, people-focused peek behind the curtain.
