What is a Food & Drink influencer?
A Food & Drink influencer is a creator who posts about food and drink, from restaurant reviews and new openings to recipes and dish recommendations on Instagram or TikTok. They range from a few thousand local followers to national reach, and brands work with them to get in front of people in Chester who already care about food & drink.
How We Rank These Creators
We look at three things: recent content quality, reach, and how much of a creator's content is actually about food & drink. The "Food & Drink" figure is the share of their recent posts that met both.
