How Restaurants Use It

Four occasions worth mailing for.

OPENING

1–3 wks before

Grand Opening

Every household within 1 mile gets the news before you open. Build a crowd, not a trickle, from the neighborhood that will actually walk in.

See this campaign →

SEASONAL

Quarterly

Seasonal Menu Drop

New spring menu. Summer patio hours. Fall specials. Remind your neighborhood you're there, and give them a reason to come in this week instead of next month.

See this campaign →

HIGH-VALUE

Fall · Holiday push

Catering Push

Catering is the booking most restaurants would rather have more of. Target residential neighborhoods in higher-income areas ahead of graduation season, corporate Q4, or the holiday party window.

RETENTION

Monthly cadence

Weekly Specials & Loyalty

Tuesday specials. Happy hour. $10 off your next visit. Low-cost monthly drops keep your name top of mind in the neighborhood, before they pick somewhere else for dinner.

Why it matters

The people most likely to walk in are the ones who never hear you opened.

Nearby households do not know the restaurant is there, or forget it between visits.

You end up hoping the right people find you, with no way to decide who hears about the restaurant this month.

When the neighbourhood only finds you through an app, you are renting access to your own customers — and paying for it on every order.

The neighbourhood knows you are there, and knows why to come in this week rather than sometime.

How It Works

From your kitchen to every mailbox. Here's how it works.

1

Choose your campaign

Start with the Opening Week campaign, or pick the occasion you want to fill. Each one comes with creative built for restaurants, ready to put your name and offer on.

2

Choose who you want to reach

Search by ZIP and see the neighborhoods on a map, with the number of addresses in each. Pick the ones close enough that people can walk or drive in tonight.

3

Approve it. We handle the rest.

A free review checks your offer, layout and call-to-action before anything prints. Then L&B prints it, bundles by neighborhood, handles the USPS paperwork and makes the Post Office handoff.

Aim to mail 2–3 weeks before your opening or event. USPS Marketing Mail typically delivers in 3–10 business days. Delivery timing is not guaranteed. We'll confirm the schedule with you when the run is booked.

Transparent Pricing

What a restaurant campaign costs.

Print price plus USPS postage. That's it. No setup fees, no list fees. Print your target neighborhood. Most restaurants mail 500–2,500 pieces per drop.

  • Free campaign & design review on every order
  • USPS prep, paperwork, and bundling by neighborhood
  • Local USPS post office drop-off included

Postage is always separate and added at checkout. Never baked into the print price.
