    EDDM for restaurants

    Everyone within a couple miles eats out. For restaurants, saturation is the right shape — the game is density and proximity, and we optimize both.

    Who your mail reaches — and why

    For restaurants, our advisor targets everyone nearby — dense neighborhoods for the most local awareness per drop. When your audience is genuinely everyone, reach per dollar is the metric that matters.

    We rank neighborhoods for restaurant by:

    • Mailbox density (awareness per dollar)
    • Proximity to your location
    • Contiguous coverage around your address

    Every recommendation comes with a plain-language reason, and you can override it with a different audience in one click.

    See the competition first

    You still see how many restaurant businesses mail each neighborhood — in a crowded category, being the only menu in the mailbox that week matters.

    Your neighborhoods, exclusively

    One business per neighborhood per category per month — when you book it, no competing restaurant offer shares those mailboxes that month.

    One all-in price

    From $0.86 per piece down to $0.66 at volume — printing, postage, and delivery included. A typical ~1,000-mailbox neighborhood runs about $1,000. Run your numbers.

    Campaigns that work for restaurant

    Common questions

    Does EDDM work for restaurants?

    It's the classic use case — every household nearby is a prospect, and a menu or offer that lands in the kitchen gets kept. The lift comes from density: the most mailboxes within your real trade radius.

    How much does restaurant EDDM cost?

    One flat all-in rate covers printing, postage, and delivery: from $0.86 per piece, dropping to $0.66 at higher volumes. A typical neighborhood of about 1,000 mailboxes runs about $1,000. Try the numbers yourself with our free EDDM cost calculator.

    What should a restaurant mailer include?

    An appetite-driving hero photo, a concrete first-visit offer, and ordering info (hours, phone, QR to menu/online ordering). New-opening and new-menu moments are the natural triggers.

    Why not just use the free USPS EDDM tool?

    You can — USPS delivers the mail either way, and we use the same postal rails. But the free tool only shows routes and takes your postage; it won't tell a restaurant business which neighborhoods are actually worth mailing, print your cards, bundle them to spec, or handle the forms and the post-office drop. That's the work that decides whether the campaign pays off, and it's what our flat rate includes.
