For restaurants, bars & brands

Advertise on 312Deals

312Deals is where Chicagoans decide where to eat and drink — and increasingly where the AI assistants they ask get their answers. We rank on page one of Google for the searches your customers are already running, across the city and the suburbs. Advertising puts your venue at the front of that line.

Three ways to reach diners. Advertising (you're here) puts a single venue or brand at the front of search and the guides, starting at $39. A newsletter sponsorship (below) puts your brand in our weekly Deal Sheet email. Represent many venues, clients, or a whole district? Partner with us →
