FEAST Magazine is designed to do what print does best: offer flip-able, browse-able content that readers linger over throughout the month. Its large-format, glossy cover ensures that FEAST catches the eye, but it’s the magazine’s
engaging, well-written and approachable content that our readers crave each month.
FEAST is a true niche publication in that it is entirely focused on the culinary world, but our approach to content development and design makes the magazine appeal to a wide range of consumers. Well-fed foodies as well as kitchen novices turn to our pages for inspired ideas and insightful local coverage. Readers pick up FEAST for restaurant
recommendations, libation suggestions, great recipes and in-depth profiles, as well as info on gadgets and appliances, kitchen design, dining furniture, specialty items and the shops that carry it all.
FEAST delivers national culinary-magazine style content on a local
level. All aspects of the brand – print and digital – are developed with the highest production standards. Using the best food writers and photographers in the business, FEAST is focused on delivering
fresh content to a diverse demographic.
St. Louis consumers spend an average of
$3.4 billion annually at restaurants and bars
