They have a posting problem: the photo of Tuesday's special is still sitting on a phone in the office on Friday. PostEverywhere lets an owner or GM load a full week of specials, events and Reels in one sitting, then publishes them to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and 8 more platforms on schedule.

The workflow that survives a restaurant week is one batching session: plate three dishes on a quiet morning, shoot them, draft the captions, and queue seven days into the [content calendar](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-calendar). If you are still working out *what* to post, read our [full guide to social media for restaurants](https://posteverywhere.ai/blog/social-media-for-restaurants) first. This page is about the part after that: getting it out the door, every week, without a marketing hire. Queue the week in one sitting. Load Monday's special through Sunday brunch, set the times, close the laptop. The scheduler publishes while you are on the pass.Change it when the kitchen does. Scheduled posts stay editable. Drag one to another slot, rewrite the caption, or pull it entirely if the dish sells out before service.One upload, every platform. Send the same dish photo to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Threads at once with cross-posting, then tighten the caption per platform before it goes. ## Staff and second sites No shared password, no crossed-over locations Restaurant social accounts are usually run by whoever is around and good at it: a GM, a server who shoots decent Reels, the owner on a day off. That normally ends with the Instagram login on a sticky note by the POS. [Team workspaces](https://posteverywhere.ai/team-workspaces) fix both halves of that problem, and [multi-account management](https://posteverywhere.ai/multi-account-management) keeps a second or third site from bleeding into the first. A workspace per location. Each site keeps its own calendar, drafts and numbers. Brand assets stay shared, billing stays single, and nobody posts the wrong address.Draft, approve, publish. Your Reels-savvy server drafts. You approve. Role-based access and approval workflows mean nothing publishes unreviewed, and nothing needs your password.Connections you can see. Accounts connect through each platform's official login flow. Account health monitoring flags an expired token the day it happens instead of after three silent weeks. ## What actually worked Stop posting on instinct Most restaurants over-invest in the beautifully plated hero shot and under-invest in the twelve-second clip of the pass at full tilt, because nobody ever checks which one people saved and sent to a friend. The [analytics dashboard](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-analytics) pulls every connected account into one view so you can find the format worth repeating, and the [engagement rate calculator](https://posteverywhere.ai/tools/engagement-rate-calculator) gives you a quick read on where your account sits before you commit another month to it. Every account in one view. Reach, engagement, saves and clicks across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and the rest, filtered by platform or date range. No exporting from four apps into a spreadsheet.Find the repeatable format. Compare kitchen clips against plated stills against staff-pick posts, then build next month around whichever one your local audience keeps saving.Built for food and drink ## The parts restaurants actually use A fixed slot for the daily specialPick the time the special always goes out, then fill seven of those slots in one sitting instead of remembering to post at 11:40 every single morning. Promo graphics without a designerGenerate a clean graphic for happy hour, a set menu, a quiz night or a bank holiday closure in the AI image generator. No brief, no turnaround time, no design fee for a post that lives for 24 hours. Seasonal windows booked earlyValentine's, Mother's Day, the first warm weekend of patio season and your own anniversary are all known months out. Put the whole run of teaser, launch and last-tables posts on the calendar while the kitchen is quiet. A workspace per locationSecond site, third site, a bar under a different name: each one gets its own workspace, calendar, drafts and reporting, with shared brand assets and a single bill. Local-intent captions and hashtagsWrite captions that name the neighbourhood, the dish and the day, and pull location and cuisine hashtags from the hashtag generator so nearby diners actually surface the post. Failed posts caught, not discoveredPlatform tokens expire and uploads occasionally fail. PostEverywhere retries automatically and flags any account that needs reconnecting, so you find out the same day rather than after three silent weeks. Why restaurants pick PostEverywhere ## Built for a 60-hour week, not a marketing department Social is genuinely how people find somewhere to eat now. In MGH’s survey of 1,069 US diners, [45% said they had tried a restaurant for the first time because of a post the restaurant made itself](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/mgh-survey-finds-nearly-half-of-us-diners-have-tried-a-new-restaurant-because-of-its-social-media-posts-300833965.html), and 36% follow restaurants on social at all. The gap between those two numbers is the whole opportunity: you do not need a huge following, you need to be visible to the people already deciding where to eat tonight. In practice that means showing up on three platforms without hiring anyone. [Instagram](https://posteverywhere.ai/instagram-scheduler) carries the food photography and the Reels, [TikTok](https://posteverywhere.ai/tiktok-scheduler) carries the kitchen and the personality, and [Facebook](https://posteverywhere.ai/facebook-scheduler) still does the heavy lifting for events, opening hours and the older half of your local trade. [Cross-posting](https://posteverywhere.ai/cross-posting) sends one dish photo to all three plus eight more platforms from a single upload, so nobody logs into five apps between lunch and dinner. The writing is the bit that stalls most operators at 10pm. The [AI content generator](https://posteverywhere.ai/ai-content-generator) drafts the caption from a description of the dish, the [AI image generator](https://posteverywhere.ai/ai-image-generator) handles the graphic for a set menu or a closure notice, and the [hashtag generator](https://posteverywhere.ai/tools/hashtag-generator) pulls the cuisine and neighbourhood tags that put you in front of nearby diners rather than a global food audience. Everything lands in the [visual calendar](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-calendar), which is where the seasonal problem gets solved. Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, the first genuinely warm weekend of patio season and your own anniversary are all knowable months ahead, and they are the weeks that pay for the quiet ones. Plan the teaser, the launch and the last-tables post while the kitchen is calm, and let the [scheduler](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-scheduler) run them when you are too busy to think about marketing. Pricing is sized for a restaurant P&L, not an agency retainer. The [Starter plan](https://posteverywhere.ai/pricing) is $29/month for 10 connected accounts and 100 AI credits, which covers a single site comfortably. Scale is $39/month for 20 accounts, 500 credits and 5 seats, which is where small groups land. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial, you add a card to begin it, nothing is charged until the trial ends, and annual billing takes 20% off. Running more than food? The same workspace model covers a mixed portfolio: see [PostEverywhere for small business](https://posteverywhere.ai/for/small-business) if you also run a shop or a second concept, or [PostEverywhere for agencies](https://posteverywhere.ai/for/agencies) if you handle social for several venues that are not your own.

The guide covers strategy: which platforms matter, what to post, how often, and what other restaurants have done. This page is about execution. PostEverywhere is the tool you use after you have decided what to post, so a week of specials, events and Reels actually gets published on time across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and 8 more platforms without anyone remembering to do it during service. ### I run the account myself between shifts. How long does this realistically take? The workflow most operators settle into is one session a week, usually on a slow morning before prep. Upload the photos and clips you already shot, let the AI draft captions, drop them onto the calendar, and set the times. Once the week is queued, the only ongoing work is replying to comments and DMs on your phone. Setup on day one takes about 15 minutes: connect your accounts and pick your posting times. ### Can I change or cancel a scheduled post if the kitchen runs out of a dish? Yes. Scheduled posts stay editable until they publish. Open the calendar, edit the caption, drag the post to a different day, or delete it. If tonight's special sells out at six, the post promoting it does not go out at seven. ### Can I run several locations from one account? Yes. Starter connects 10 social accounts, Growth connects 25, and Pro connects 40. Workspaces keep each location separate, so the Camden calendar, drafts and analytics never mix with the Shoreditch ones, while brand assets stay shared. One subscription covers every connected account, with no per-location fee. ### My server runs our Instagram. Do I have to give them the password? No. Accounts connect through each platform's official login flow, so PostEverywhere never sees or stores a password, and staff work inside PostEverywhere rather than inside your Instagram login. Role-based access and approval workflows let a team member draft posts while an owner or GM approves anything before it publishes. When someone leaves, you remove their PostEverywhere access instead of changing every social password. ### Which platforms can a restaurant publish to? All 11 that PostEverywhere supports: Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest, Telegram and Discord. Most independent restaurants use three of them seriously (Instagram, TikTok and Facebook) and post the same asset to all three with per-platform captions. ### What does the AI actually write, and does it sound like a robot? You describe the dish, the offer or the event and the AI content generator drafts platform-specific captions and hashtag sets. You set a brand voice first, so a neighbourhood taqueria and a tasting-menu restaurant produce very different copy. Everything is editable before it schedules, and most operators tweak a line or two rather than accepting a draft outright. AI credits are included in every plan: 100 a month on Growth and 500 on Scale. ### How much does it cost, and is there a trial? Growth is $29/month for 10 accounts and 100 AI credits, which suits a single site. Scale is $39/month for 20 accounts, 500 credits and 5 seats, which fits small restaurant groups. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial, a card is required to start it, you are not charged until the trial ends, and annual billing saves 20%. ## Related Features & Tools Explore related features and guides to get the most out of PostEverywhere.
