The original influencer · vetted by Prosper

Australia’s restaurant guide, since 1977.

The Australian Good Food Guide is Australia’s original restaurant influencer — the country’s longest-running independent restaurant guide. Over 60,000 venues in the directory, daily editorial written by an in-house team, multi-channel reach across web, app, email and social, and the Chef Hat & Readers Choice Awards.

About AGFG

The original influencer — long before the word existed.

AGFG has been pointing Australians at restaurants since 1977. The audience wasn’t built on an algorithm; it’s been compounding for nearly fifty years of consistent editorial.

Directory

60,000+ venues

Restaurants, pubs and cafes across every state and territory. Free standard listings; premium upgrades for operators who want more presence in the directory diners actually use.

Editorial

Daily editorial content

Fresh stories every day — seasonal round-ups, regional spotlights, “where to eat now” lists, exclusive features. Written in-house, published seven days a week.

Multi-channel

Web, app, email, social

The same editorial appears across every surface diners actually use — the AGFG website, the app, the email newsletter and an active social presence. One brand, many touchpoints.

Awards

Chef Hat & Readers Choice

AGFG’s two annual recognition programs — the Chef Hat Awards, decided by AGFG’s expert judging panel, and the Readers Choice Awards voted by the diner audience itself.

Audience

High-intent foodies

The AGFG audience is food-led: higher disposable income than average, actively looking for new venues to try, and on the site for one reason — to decide where to eat next.

Decision surface

Where diners choose

Whether it’s a weeknight dinner, a special occasion or an interstate trip, AGFG’s web and app are where diners turn at the moment of decision.

Why operators work with AGFG

A highly motivated audience — here to book, not to browse.

The original influencer

AGFG has been guiding Australians to restaurants since 1977. Nearly fifty years of independent editorial — the kind of authority no algorithm can manufacture, and no new platform can claim.

2

An audience that’s ready to book

People are on AGFG for one reason: to make a reservation decision. They’re not scrolling for entertainment or killing time. They’re food-led diners looking for their next experience — highly engaged, highly motivated, and ready to act.

Editorial, not advertorial

Features are written by AGFG’s in-house editorial team in the brand’s actual voice. Paid placement that reads like editorial loses an audience fast — AGFG’s editorial team is the line that keeps the trust intact.

What operators say

From venues already listed with AGFG.

“Being on AGFG has been a steady source of new diners for us. The directory is one of the first places people look when they’re actively deciding where to eat.”

Lucia Italian restaurant, Sydney

“AGFG’s editorial team takes the time to write about a venue properly. It’s not advertorial — it reads like a real feature, and diners trust that.”

James Modern Australian, Melbourne

“Our group’s venues have been listed on AGFG for years. It’s the editorial brand we point to when we want diners to know who we are.”

Priya Group operator, Brisbane

“Hard to get noticed when you’re an hour out of the city. AGFG’s regional coverage does more for us than half the city-focused platforms put together.”
