Restaurants are very well-equipped to succeed using social media, they just need to know how to use it!

There is no shortage of examples for how restaurants use social media. We did a case study on a restaurant’s use of Instagram a short while back to showcase just one of the ways social media can be a powerful tool for restaurants.

However, despite the obvious use of review sites like Yelp! or sharing images of food on Facebook or Instagram, some restaurants have a hard time understanding how they can benefit from the strategic use of social media.

In the infographic below, there are ten great examples of how restaurants use social media, and what they can do differently in order to benefit from the tools. Though some of these uses may seem trivial, many restauranteurs and marketing teams tend to overlook even the most obvious uses of social media when it comes to their restaurants or restaurant clients.

Take a look through some of these examples and think back on when you engaged with a restaurant on social media, and what they did differently that made you remember them. Tell us in the comments below or on Twitter!
