Quick answer: Custom restaurant coasters put your logo, specials and a QR code in front of every guest for the whole meal, which makes them an inexpensive way for a café or restaurant to brand its tables. At Custom Coasters, orders start at 500 coasters for $150 + GST single sided, in round or square.
Restaurant Coasters Australia – Turn Every Drink into a Marketing Opportunity
Every coffee, beer, cocktail or soft drink served in your venue presents an opportunity to promote your business. Custom restaurant coasters are far more than a practical way to protect tables—they’re a powerful branding tool that sits directly in front of your customers throughout their visit.
Whether you own a small café, busy restaurant, wine bar or family bistro, professionally printed coasters reinforce your branding, advertise promotions and encourage repeat visits.
Why should restaurants use branded coasters?
Unlike many forms of advertising that disappear after a few seconds, a coaster remains in front of customers for the entire time they enjoy their meal or drink.
Branded restaurant coasters help you:
- Increase brand recognition
- Protect tables from spills and condensation
- Promote specials
- Advertise upcoming events
- Display QR codes
- Encourage online reviews
- Promote loyalty programs
- Increase social media followers
Are restaurant coasters in Australia cost effective?
Restaurant owners are always looking for affordable marketing.
Compared with newspaper advertising, radio, flyers or social media campaigns, printed coasters continue working long after they’ve been produced.
A single coaster may be used by several different customers before being discarded, multiplying your advertising exposure.
