Four Steps to Prepare Restaurant Social Media Posts

You don't need to organize food photos across multiple documents and apps. Follow this straightforward process to prepare content inside EatFot Social.

01
Start with your best food shots

Upload Photos in Batches

Sign in with an approved restaurant account and choose your food photos. The tool accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP files, up to 5 MB each. Add up to 10 images per batch and keep up to 100 photo records in your library. Select clear, well-lit pictures that accurately show the dishes you serve.

02
Keep your restaurant's voice

Add a Dish Name and Caption

Give each photo a useful dish name, then write a short, natural caption with relevant hashtags. Optional Gemini-assisted captions can help when API access is configured and working, but you should always review the generated wording. Avoid inventing ingredients, offers, or prices that customers cannot actually get.

03
Decide what happens next

Save a Draft or Create a Plan

Click Save Draft to store the photo and text without choosing a publishing date. Click Save Plan to attach a future date and time in your selected timezone. A saved plan is for organizing content only—it does not automatically post to social media.

04
Optional integration stage

Connect Social Publishing When Ready

Automatic Facebook and Instagram publishing is a separate setup step. You need authorized professional accounts, approved Meta app permissions, working account connections, public HTTPS media URLs, and reliable WordPress background scheduling. Publishing is not activated simply by saving a draft or plan.

Start here: Open the restaurant photo tool on the homepage, upload one image, write a caption and save it as a draft. Once that works, try planning a future date.

Understand the Three Posting Options

The buttons in your EatFot photo library have different purposes. Choosing the correct one helps prevent accidental publishing.

Save Draft

Saves the dish name, caption, and hashtags so you can return to them later. No social network is contacted and no date is required.

Available now

Save Plan

Stores a future date and time alongside the photo. This is an editorial planning state, not a live social media schedule.

Available now

Schedule Live

Designed for authorized Meta publishing after account connections, permissions, explicit confirmation, and background jobs have been configured and tested.

Integration required
A practical example

Plan a Food Post in Minutes, Not Across Multiple Apps

Imagine your team takes a fresh burger photo before a busy lunch shift. You can add the image to EatFot, name the dish, prepare a caption and store it with the rest of your restaurant content.

  • Upload the photo directly from your computer.
  • Check the dish name, ingredients and any promotional wording.
  • Save your caption and hashtags as a draft.
  • If you are building a content calendar, choose a future posting time.
  • Return to your photo library to edit the content later.

Use EatFot Social for Everyday Restaurant Content

Even a small photo library can help your team prepare regular posts about the meals customers already love.

Breakfast & Café Specials

Keep coffee, pastry, and breakfast photos ready for your weekly social media calendar without writing the same caption from scratch each time.

New Menu Items

Prepare a photo and an accurate description before a new dish goes on sale. Review the launch date and any offers before saving.

Kitchen & Team Moments

Organize behind-the-scenes food photos and team highlights for future posts, making sure everyone pictured has given the appropriate permission.

Important publishing note: EatFot's existing photo uploads, manual captions, drafts and planning functions can be used without AI. Gemini-based caption generation is optional and currently requires an eligible API project. Facebook/Instagram auto-publishing also requires separate platform and server configuration. A planned post is not a published post.
