Building your own restaurant list costs 2.3 to 3.6 cents a contact, and the same plan sends the emails.
A prebuilt file is a one-time download that starts going stale the day you buy it. In Lead Finder you choose exactly which restaurant contacts go in, add more whenever you need them, and the plan that pays for the credits also sends the emails.
| Way to get the list | What you pay | Cost per contact |
|---|---|---|
| Emailchaser Pro | $97 a month with 5,000 lead credits and 125,000 emails a month included | 2.3 cents |
| Emailchaser Starter | $47 a month with 1,500 lead credits and 5,000 emails a month included | 3.5 cents |
| Emailchaser extra credits | $33 per 1,000 credits, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more; bought credits never expire | 2.3 to 3.6 cents |

Example campaign and email, invented for this page. The count is real.
Point of sale, food supply and staffing companies use restaurant lists to reach owners and managers who decide quickly.
An independent restaurant is decided by its owner, who is often also the chef or the manager on the floor. A restaurant group buys for every location through a director of operations or a purchasing manager. Managers are busy at mealtimes, so the quiet hours between lunch and dinner are when email gets read.
These are the questions people ask about restaurant email lists.
How many restaurant contacts can I reach with Emailchaser?
Lead Finder holds 43,512 people at US restaurants and restaurant groups with a verified work email, from a live count on 2 November 2026. The count changes as people change jobs, so the number you see in Lead Finder on the day you search is the one that counts.
Can I filter restaurant contacts by state, city or company size?
Yes. Lead Finder filters by country, state and city, by seniority (for example owner, partner or director), by company size from 1-10 employees up to 10,001+, and by job title, revenue and the technology a company uses. Combine them freely, and the count updates before you spend anything.
How much does a restaurant email list cost on Emailchaser?
Searching and counting are free. Each person you add uses 1 lead credit. Plans include 1,500 credits a month on Starter ($47), 5,000 on Pro ($97) and 10,000 on Max ($358), and extra credits cost $33 per 1,000, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more. Checking each address is billed apart from credits, at $0.0017 a check. The 7-day free trial includes 500 lead credits.
Does the restaurant list include chains and franchises?
Yes. It counts everyone whose company is classed as a restaurant, from one-location owners to national groups. For independents, filter by company size 1-10 or 11-50 and the seniority "owner". For chains, use job titles such as "director of operations" or "purchasing manager" at larger company sizes.
Are the emails verified?
Lead Finder only returns people whose work email has a verified status. When you add them, Emailchaser checks each address again (on by default, $0.0017 a check, one or two checks an address), and an address that fails is dropped without using a credit.
Is it legal to send cold email to restaurant contacts?
In the United States, the CAN-SPAM Act allows commercial email to business addresses when you identify yourself honestly, use an accurate subject line, include a postal address and honour every opt-out. Rules are stricter in some other countries, such as under GDPR in Europe.
