Social media management for restaurants and pubs.

Branded posts every week for your menus, events and offers, on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google. From £150 + VAT a month, approved by you.

Quick answer

What does affordable social media management for restaurants and pubs look like?

Socially Active is a low-cost, done-for-you social media service for restaurants and pubs across the UK, run by Compelite Pro, a social media agency based in Bristol. For £150 to £350 + VAT a month we write and design branded static posts for your business, you approve them, and we publish them every week to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google Business Profile. For a restaurant or pub, that usually means menus, events, bookings and the atmosphere that makes people want to come in.

Why it matters

Why social media matters for restaurants and pubs.

Before booking a table, most people look at your photos, your Google listing and when you last posted. An active, branded feed tells them you are busy and worth booking. Google Business Profile posts are especially useful, because they show up when people search for somewhere to eat nearby.

FAQs

Social media for restaurants and pubs: your questions.

Can you post our specials and events?

Yes, as long as we have them in time to design and schedule the posts. Most restaurants and pubs plan specials and events a few weeks ahead, which fits our monthly approval cycle.

Do you promote drinks offers?

We can post drinks offers, written responsibly, and you approve every post before it goes live.

How much does social media management for restaurants and pubs cost?

Socially Active plans cost £150, £250 or £350 + VAT a month for one, two or three branded posts a week, published to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google Business Profile. There is a one-off onboarding fee equal to one month, and a 3-month minimum term.

Do I approve every post?

Yes. We send you next month’s posts by the 25th, with one round of changes on each. Nothing goes live without your say-so.

Do you work with restaurants and pubs outside Bristol?

Yes. We work with restaurants and pubs anywhere in the UK, fully online. Our team is based in Bristol, and photo shoots are available in Bristol and Bath.
