Prior to setting up Quite Great in 1996 experience within music and then fast moving consumer goods such as Fosters, Tanqueray, Red Bull, Finlandia Vodka etc.. meant that once the agency’s doors were opened Food and Drink PR became part of our everyday working life.
Music and brand clients are worked hand in hand with the UK Food & Drink PR Agency team , benefiting each other and allowing links to be made that brought about cross marketing opportunities. Whether it was the wonderful opera star Juliet Pochin joining forces with Hotel Chocolat or bringing together opportunities for brands to sponsor tours across the UK, the bond between music and brands has always been there for us to develop.
From food and music venues such as Red by Night to The UK’s First Carbon Negative Restaurant, Stem and Glory, Quite Great Food & Drink PR Team can help you with your all media and public promotion.
The Quite Great Team are just jam packed with media attention grabbing ideas from helping organise Food PR for Coles Traditional Foods setting up the launch of Guinness Christmas puddings on St.Patrick’s Day , to aligning strategic and focused media for themed restaurants to targeting your consumers for Vegan retailers .

So what do we do? Well , it is vital to understand that all projects, although covering the same part of the market, are very different, with the driving force behind the enterprise on many occasions being the key to media success. As the entrepreneurial spirit of any venture especially in the personality driven world of food and drink takes the media campaign into very individual directions.
Yet as a rule of thumb, the first thing we tend to do is look at your online presence, give your site a full health check in order that we understand what is being said and how you look to the outside world, then the team would get an understanding as to exactly who are your core customers and the key factor of your brand personality.
We then look at what ideas can be created to best fit local, online media and traditional national media. Our aim then would be to give you an agreed hit list that creates a uniform campaign structure over an initial three month timeline.
We will aim to explore all the unique and exciting aspects of your restaurant or bar, whether that may be the healthy food options, vegan or raw food delights, through to locally sourced meats and produce or the fact that your cocktails or selection of gins are second to none.
Style, atmosphere and the exclusivity of your venue will be important to you and these are some of the areas that we will aim to highlight and explore and make sure that the message is spread. We are all constantly looking for that new epitome of glamour in our lives and this includes our social life, whether in a restaurant or bar. If your food or style is contemporary or traditional, serves the best triple cooked chips and steak, incorporates healthy options of exotic salads and vegetables, gluten or dairy free main dishes and desserts, highlights the wonders of international foods from spicy Asian fish dishes to Moroccan lamb and couscous, or focuses on the joy of seasonal British produce, we will aim to highlight the things that matter to you and of course the media. From asparagus and strawberries to free range chickens and great British beef – local or global, we can highlight these wonders of your business and help to create your venue as a definite fixture within that all important , ‘must go to’ category.
Worked with exciting projects and projecting their uniqueness is one of our specialities, for example clients such as T.W.I.D in Battersea, where food meets Opera highlight the love we have for the unique and the unusual.
It is the excitement of creating ideas that will really drive sales for new and growing brands that we enjoy most. Working with Extreme Drinks brought us closer to the world of Extreme Sports and helping the hugely creative Al Gosling and the wonderful Tony Lewis on the launch of that brand was a thrill and since then we have helped the fantastic Munchy Seeds team along with more conservative brands such as Coles Traditional Foods , although it did not stop us launching a Christmas pudding on St. Patrick’s Day.
The Quite Great team spend a great deal of time helping with events and understanding our clients first hand whether it is at the NEC, The Design Centre , Xcell or Earls Court. We understand how tough it is to launch a brand and build it hence we always look at ways that we can help increase sales and also adapt business structures to fit the needs of the client. Some prefer simple fee based, others have tighter budgets and so wish to look at a combination of fees and an equity linked with success on different levels.
So you think that you have the best restaurant in town….the city…..the country….the world!!! But you need to attract a wider range of customers and don’t know where to start? Well you have come to the right place, as this is where the Quite Great team come in, helping you with your all media and public promotion.
The Quite Great Food and Drink PR service covering PR and Marketing also extends beyond the written word and into the all important word of video production if that is what you need. As we can help put together video footage for you website,and the media. Interviews, recipe creation, cocktail shaking, in fact pretty much everything you may need from a snappy online piece to a full blown documentary if you so wish for your venue.
Short video clips to highlight your skills, whether it may be one of your staff creating wonderful vegan or raw desserts or the cocktail maker and his signature cocktail of gin, raspberries and hibiscus flowers, are vital to the public understanding of your brand, hence why we offer this all encompassing food and drink service. The Quite Great Food and Drink PR Team will aim to create footage that appeals and attracts even the most discerning customers to your restaurant or bar.
