Events & Promotions for Restaurants

 Restaurants thrive when people are talking about them — and nothing sparks buzz like a well-executed event. Auggie Eats helps local restaurants plan, promote, and fill seats for special events, tasting nights, and limited-time promotions by combining strategic planning with powerful local marketing reach.

From concept to promotion, we make sure your event gets seen, shared, and attended.

Why Event Marketing Works

Local restaurant events work because they create:

• Urgency – limited seats, limited time

• Experience-based dining – more than just a meal

• Social sharing – people talk about events they attend

• Higher average ticket value – tastings & pairings increase spend

We help you turn a single night into revenue, visibility, and repeat customers.
