Instagram Photo Ideas for Cafes in 2020

Share Food Photos

This sounds more like a given and there are many businesses out there diligently sharing their food photos on Instagram.

However, make sure your photos are Insta-worthy and can make an impact like La Cucina in Limerick.

Share Coffee Photos

Let people know how good your coffee is (and looks like) by sharing meaningful photos, like in this example by the guys at Coffee Angel.

Share Pet Photos

If your cafe or coffee shop is pet-friendly, sharing photos of your customers’ pets should be among your top Instagram photo ideas.

I particularly like how Shoe Lane Coffee shares photos of their customers’ best friends.

Share Photos of Your Staff

People love to see the behind the scenes of your restaurant, cafe or coffee shop.

If you add some humour and don’t take yourself too seriously, it’s also a great plus.

In this example, pizzaiolo and store-owner Tadhg strikes some statuary pose for the photographer.

Making yourself and your staff known is one of the top Instagram photo ideas for cafes, coffee shops, restaurants and in general for any small business.

Share Memes (but Don’t Overdo It!)

Nutbutter gives the perfect example of balanced content curation by sharing not only photos of food but also throwing some memes into the mix.

Share a Recipe

Especially during the lockdown, social media was one of the main ways for businesses to stay in touch with their audience.

Some of them included sharing recipes that their customers could make at home to their Instagram photo ideas.

A great example of sharing some of the love with your customers is by Alma.

Share Photos of the Ingredients You Use

Share Photos with Your Producers

Share Your Customer Reviews

Showcase the Interiors of Your Cafe

Love Supreme are extremely creative and artsy when it comes to showing the inside of their cafe.

Show Your Location

One of my personal favourites is Lucky’s in Dublin for how they proudly share photos of their neighbourhood.

A lot of businesses focus only on their premise or products. I personally think sharing photos of your location and area is one of the best Instagram photo ideas for a small business.

Are you a cafe or coffee shop owner or manager? What other Instagram photo ideas do you use?
