Restaurant Marketing in Boston
Where old-school media credibility meets a dynamic new dining scene.
Why ChowGrowth in Boston?
Boston's dining scene is defined by the tension between its storied seafood traditions — the lobster rolls, the clam chowder, the raw bars — and the ambitious modern restaurants that have emerged from its world-class culinary education institutions. The Boston Globe's food section is one of the most respected in American journalism. ChowGrowth's Boston relationships span the Globe, the Herald, and the local food blogging community that drives discovery among the city's educated, food-literate dining population.
Neighborhoods We Cover
We know the distinct dining culture of every part of Boston.
The Boston Market
The Boston Globe's 'Dining Out' section is the gold standard for Boston restaurant coverage — a review there can sustain a restaurant for years. Boston Magazine's annual 'Best of Boston' issue is another must-target moment. The Cambridge and Somerville dining scenes have developed their own distinct identities with dedicated press coverage from local publications and national food media.
