LinkedIn captions for Restaurants

For restaurants, chefs and food businesses on LinkedIn. Your audience: locals deciding where to eat tonight, food lovers, and people planning a celebration. About the first 210 characters show before "see more", so open with the point, not the preamble.

Caption formulas that work for restaurants

  1. Hook, value, ask. Open with the result or the mistake, give one specific detail, end with one action: save, comment or book.
  2. Mini story. A real moment from your restaurants work in three short lines, then the lesson.
  3. List. Three quick tips, one per line, with the most surprising one first.

On LinkedIn you have up to 3,000 characters, but the hook must work on its own because the rest is usually hidden. Add 1 to 3 specific hashtags, for example: #food #brunch #chefslife

Two example restaurants captions to adapt

Replace the details in [brackets] with your own, then trim to fit LinkedIn.

Brunch is back from this Saturday.

New on the menu: [dish 1], [dish 2] and the [signature dish] you kept asking for.

Serving [days] from [time]. Tables go fast, so book through the link in bio or call [number].

Every [dish] starts at [time] when [chef name] makes the [base, e.g. dough or stock] from scratch.

No shortcuts, which is why we sometimes sell out by 8 p.m.

Tag someone you would share this with.

Opening lines that stop the scroll

  • "This is the dish regulars order and newcomers never notice on the menu."
  • "We make [number] of these by hand every morning. Here is how."
  • "Our chef was told this would never sell. It is now our best seller."

Mistakes restaurants accounts make on LinkedIn

  • Dark, close-up food photos with no sense of the place, the people or the price
  • Not saying opening hours, location and how to book in the caption
  • Only posting when it is busy, instead of planning posts before slow days
