Facebook & Instagram Advertising for UK Restaurants & Takeaways

Turn Local Scrollers into Booked Tables and Direct Orders

Facebook and Instagram are where a huge share of your customers spend their evenings deciding what to do next, including where to eat. We run Meta Ads built specifically for restaurants, putting your food in front of people nearby and bringing back anyone who almost ordered but didn't.

Social Ad Inefficiency

Where Generic Facebook & Instagram Ads Fall Short

Most social ad spend is wasted showing mouthwatering food to people who live 20 miles away or aren't hungry.

Hospitality social advertising requires strict radius fencing, hunger-window timing (5pm–9pm), and instant retargeting to diners who viewed your menu without ordering.

  • Vanity Engagement Trap: Paying for thousands of cheap video views that generate zero actual restaurant covers.
  • Poor Radius Geometry: Showing ads outside your actual delivery range or sensible drive-time territory.
  • No Dynamic Retargeting: Failing to re-engage website visitors before they give up and open Deliveroo.

Inside Every Meta Ads Campaign We Build

Facebook and Instagram Campaigns Structured Around Real Restaurant Goals

Every campaign is built with a specific job to do, reaching new local customers, bringing back people who've shown interest, or reactivating past customers, rather than one generic ad shown to everyone.

Postcode and Radius Targeting

Ads limited to the area people will genuinely travel to eat with you or wait for delivery from, so budget isn't spent reaching people outside your realistic reach.

Pixel Setup and Retargeting Funnels

Meta Pixel deployed across your website to track visits and order attempts, powering retargeting campaigns that bring back anyone who nearly converted.

Food-First Creative for Feed, Stories and Reels

Visual content built specifically for how people actually use Instagram and Facebook, not repurposed print advertising or generic stock imagery.

Booking and Ordering Integrations

Campaigns connected directly to your booking system or ordering checkout, so the path from ad to table or order stays as short as possible.

From Account Setup to Ongoing Optimisation

Campaigns Built to Get Sharper the Longer They Run

Meta Ads improve with data, so the first few weeks focus on setup and learning before we shift into refining what's already working.

01
Auditing Your Current Presence

We review any existing ad activity, your Facebook and Instagram profiles, and how customers currently find and book or order with you.

02
Structuring Campaigns Around Your Goals

Separate campaigns for new customer acquisition, retargeting and customer reactivation, each with its own audience and messaging.

03
Launching with Local Precision

Campaigns go live with postcode targeting and creative built for your specific restaurant, not a template used across every client.

04
Refining Based on Real Booking and Order Data

We track performance against actual covers and orders, not just reach or engagement, adjusting targeting and creative as we learn what converts.

Real Results, Not Round Numbers

Common Questions About Restaurant Meta Ads

Meta Ads for Restaurants, Answered

Boosting reaches a broad audience with no real structure behind it. We build separate, targeted campaigns for new customers, retargeting and past customer reactivation, each with its own budget and messaging, which is where most of the improvement in performance comes from.

It depends on your location, competition and goals. We'll recommend a specific starting budget based on your market during your free audit, rather than a generic figure.

Yes, we'll need admin access to run and optimise campaigns properly, managed through Meta Business Suite so you retain full ownership and visibility at all times.

Yes. Customer data used for reactivation campaigns is uploaded securely through Meta's own matching tools, never shared or stored by us beyond what's needed to run the campaign.

Most campaigns start generating activity within the first one to two weeks. We recommend a minimum of four to six weeks before making major changes, since that's roughly how long it takes to gather enough data to optimise properly.
