FAQ

Questions, answered.

Where do First Bite leads come from?

Every lead starts with an official New York State Liquor Authority filing. New restaurants and bars usually apply for a liquor license before they open, so the filing is one of the earliest public signs a new spot is coming.

What areas does First Bite cover?

All five NYC boroughs plus Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester counties.

Who is First Bite for?

Anyone who sells to new restaurants and bars: POS and payments, kitchen equipment, beverage distributors, staffing, insurance, linen, pest control, cleaning and design.

What does First Bite Pro include?

Every new filing each week in a spreadsheet, with the business and owner behind it and sourced contact details. It is $49/month at launch pricing, cancel anytime.
