Fields worth recording for restaurants in Stoke-on-Trent

Company nameThe key field. Duplicates are checked on it or on the website.
WebsiteNeeded to derive an email when the export has none.
CuisineThe type of food shapes which products and suppliers are relevant.

DeliveryRestaurants that deliver need packaging and ordering tools.
Opening hoursKnowing when they open helps you pick a time to call or visit.

What slows down prospecting restaurants, and the fix

Restaurant lists change fast as places open, close and change owners.

Each record keeps its source and date, and you can archive closed places so your active list stays current.

The bookings@ address reaches a host, not the owner.

Tick several prefixes in email from domain, such as info@ and manager@, and note on the contact who replied.

You cannot tell which restaurants you already visited in person.

Set the status to Contacted and add a note after each visit, so the whole team sees it.

Angles that get restaurants to reply

Pick one angle per campaign and write it once, with placeholders like {company|your team} for the details.

  • Show how your offer protects margin, because food and labour costs are always on their mind.
  • Mention something specific from their menu so the owner knows you looked.
  • Offer a simple switch with no disruption to service, as that is what owners fear most.

Emailing restaurants in the UK

In the UK, B2B cold email is covered by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR. PECR generally allows marketing email to corporate subscribers such as limited companies without prior consent, but sole traders and some partnerships are treated like individuals and usually need consent, and every message must identify you and offer a simple way to opt out. Under UK GDPR you also need a lawful basis, often legitimate interests, to use the details of named contacts. This is general information, not legal advice.

Mid afternoon between lunch and dinner service, early in the week, is usually the calmest time, while Friday and Saturday evenings are best avoided. Read the deliverability guide before your first send.

Questions people ask

No. Riftjaw is not a data vendor. You collect the restaurants yourself from public sources or your own files and import them. That is why the list is yours and why there is no credit meter on it.

Yes. The Free plan runs the whole pipeline on one list with small campaigns, and you do not need a credit card. Move to Pro when you want more lists, segments and bigger campaigns.

Yes. Put Stoke-on-Trent in its own segment, or keep a City field and save a filter such as city contains Stoke-on-Trent. You always see which part of the market you already worked.

Collect restaurants from public listings such as Google Maps or review sites with a scraper, then import the CSV or Excel file. Riftjaw flags duplicates and lets you add a field for cuisine or area.

Many teams do both. Riftjaw keeps phone numbers as fields and email history per contact, so you can tag who to call and send a short campaign to the rest.
