Marketing for restaurants who want loyalty, not just orders.
Cafes, fine-dining, cloud kitchens, QSR chains. We help you build a base of regulars — without renting your customers from Zomato, Swiggy, foodpanda or GrabFood every month.
Digiocular builds websites and runs marketing for restaurants, cafés and cloud kitchens in India, the Philippines and worldwide, from Manila. A restaurant website with your menu, table reservations, location and hours starts at $599 USD and goes live in 5–7 days; a full online-ordering flow is a $399 add-on, and orders placed on your own site pay no aggregator commission. Restaurant marketing plans start at $99/mo. Merry Plates in Batangas shows its menu and catering and takes WhatsApp reservations on a site we built.
Why do restaurants need one team?
Delivery apps own your customer
In a 2021 complaint to India's competition regulator, the National Restaurant Association of India alleged Zomato and Swiggy commissions of 20% to 30%, and diner data masked from restaurants. In the Philippines, GrabFood's standard commission is 22–25% and foodpanda's basic tier is 20–23%.

Questions, answered.
Do you do marketing for restaurants and cafes?+
Yes — cafes, fine-dining, cloud kitchens, and QSR chains are a core vertical for us. We help you build a base of regulars instead of renting your customers from Zomato, Swiggy, foodpanda or GrabFood every month. That means Reels-first food content, WhatsApp loyalty flows, delivery-app optimization, and festival campaigns, all run by one team.
How do I get repeat customers instead of relying on delivery apps?+
Own the customer relationship the aggregators keep from you. In its 2021 complaint to India's Competition Commission, the National Restaurant Association of India alleged that Zomato and Swiggy charge 20% to 30% commission and mask diners' phone numbers; in the Philippines, Klikit's 2026 guide puts GrabFood's standard commission at 22–25% and foodpanda's basic tier at 20–23%. So we build a WhatsApp CRM that captures diners and brings them back with birthday offers, repeat-visitor flows, and reservation reminders. A steady Reel calendar keeps you top-of-mind between visits.
Can you run my Instagram, delivery-app listings, and reservations together?+
Yes — one team runs your social, delivery-app optimization, Google Business Profile, reviews, and reservation flows as a single system. That matters most around festivals and weekends: we pre-book and upsell Diwali, Christmas, NYE or Valentine's nights instead of leaving money on tables. No handoffs, one brand voice everywhere.
How much does a restaurant website with online ordering cost?+
A restaurant website with your menu, table reservations, location and hours starts at $599 USD and goes live in 5–7 days. A full online-ordering and takeaway flow adds $399. Orders placed on your own site pay no aggregator commission, only your payment provider's transaction fee if you take payment online.
How much does restaurant marketing cost and where do I start?+
Restaurant plans start at $99/mo for social, Google Business Profile, and ReviewWala basics, up to paid ads and full delivery-app management (Zomato, Swiggy, foodpanda or GrabFood) at $499/mo. Start with a free brand audit — we review your Instagram, Google profile and delivery-app listings and point out the levers that move you up the list. Book a 20-minute discovery call or message us on WhatsApp; full pricing is on our pricing page.
Do you work with restaurants in India and the Philippines?+
Yes. Digiocular is headquartered in Manila, Philippines and works remote-first with clients worldwide, including the Philippines, India, the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe. Delivered client work so far is mostly in India (hotels in Varanasi, a travel agency, a D2C footwear store and an FMCG snack brand) and the Philippines (a lakeside resort and its restaurant in Batangas, a spa in Quezon City and a food business in Manila). Working hours on WhatsApp are 9am–9pm IST (11:30am–11:30pm PHT). All prices are published in US dollars; local currency is available on request for India.
