Restaurant email list in France and Belgium: what you get
This list covers 131,554 restaurants in France and Belgium: 125,825 with a phone number, 75,146 with an email address and 38,618 without a website. Each record also shows the address, rating, review count, website and Instagram account, so you can sort the list before spending a credit.
Independent restaurants are small, owner-led businesses where one person decides, often on the spot. The phone is the most reliable channel because it takes the bookings. Email is mostly found at places with a website or a catering offer, and Instagram (19,047 accounts here) is often run by the owner. Many restaurants close on Sunday evening and Monday.

How to contact restaurants
Call between services, never during them. An owner you reach at 12:30 hangs up; the same person will listen at 3:30 pm. Open with something that proves you know the place (its rating, its terrace, the missing website), then ask for two minutes. Our guide to selling to restaurants has full scripts.
- Best slots: Tuesday to Thursday, 3 to 5:30 pm; around 10 am for dinner-only places.
- Avoid: 11:30 am to 2:30 pm, 6:30 to 10 pm, Fridays and Saturdays.
- Channel: phone first, then email or an Instagram DM to send the offer; a mid-afternoon visit works well.
- Don't: pitch for five minutes, send a generic brochure or follow up every day.

Can I export these leads to my CRM?
Yes. Unlocked businesses export to a CSV file that opens in Excel or Google Sheets and imports into HubSpot, Pipedrive, Brevo or Lemlist.
What is the best time to call a restaurant?
Mid-afternoon, between 3 and 5:30 pm, Tuesday to Thursday. Lunch service is over, evening prep has not started and the owner is usually in the dining room. For restaurants that only open for dinner, a call around 10 or 11 am works better.
Who makes purchasing decisions in a restaurant?
In an independent restaurant the owner decides almost everything, sometimes with the head chef for produce and kitchen equipment. In groups and franchises, buying goes through head office, so independents are usually the better target. You can spot them by a unique name and their own website.
Do restaurants reply to cold emails?
Less often than to a call, because the inbox is usually checked late at night or on the closing day. Email is still useful to send a quote or a product sheet after a first call. A short message that mentions a real detail about the restaurant and ends with a simple question gets the most replies.
How do I find restaurants that need a website?
Filter the list on "no website": these restaurants rely on booking platforms or a bare Instagram page. Then sort by review count to target places with a loyal customer base, and therefore a budget, rather than very recent openings.
