WhatsApp marketing for restaurants

A guest deciding on lunch and someone planning a special evening don't expect the same things. WhatsApp marketing for restaurants lets you communicate in a way that fits the reason for the visit and the timing of the campaign. With Pushouse, you can handle your opt-in customer messaging and the announcements on your website together, and plan a clearer experience that runs from the menu to a return visit.

Present your offer at the right time, with clear terms

During busy hours it can be hard to keep up with recurring questions, and on quiet days it can be hard to reach guests who have visited before. Vague offer terms also add to your phone and message traffic. Start by making clear which location, days and hours the offer is valid for. Check the permissions on your contact list and where your customer information comes from. Then give each goal its own scenario: announcements, answering questions and repeat visits.

Five use cases for restaurant communication

  1. Invite guests back on quiet days

    Announce a weekday menu or a time-limited offer to your selected customer list with WhatsApp Campaigns. Share the menu link, restaurant location and eligible hours in the message. Create separate messages by location so each guest can find the offer relevant to them.

  2. Prepare reservation enquiries with WhatsApp Flow

    Use WhatsApp Flow to ask for the location, date and party size step by step. Collect table or special-occasion requests in the same conversation and pass them to the relevant team. Your team can review availability with those details and complete the reservation conversation.

  3. Introduce your menu and venue through video

    Publish videos showing food presentation, dining rooms and outdoor areas on your website. Upload and manage them with Video Hosting, then embed them on the relevant menu or venue page. Let guests explore your restaurant’s atmosphere in more detail across devices.
