About Pepe’s Pizzeria Napoletana
Pepe’s Pizzeria Napoletana is a well-established pizza chain with 17 restaurants across the United States. They’ve been crafting mouthwatering Original New Haven style pizza for nearly a century, sticking to a simple yet effective approach: the best ingredients on the best dough, every time.
But staying iconic means adapting. Pepe’s wanted a way to bring the authenticity of their legendary pizzas online, helping customers feel the buzz before stepping through the door.
The challenge: building trust before the first bite
For Pepe’s, nothing beats the power of a recommendation. But the challenge was clear: how do you recreate that experience digitally? Their website attracted visitors, but it didn’t convey the energy and excitement that Instagram captures daily.
Customers scrolling the site needed reassurance—not just about the quality of the pizza but about the experience itself. What toppings were other people ordering? How did those crusts really look fresh out of the oven? Pepe’s needed a way to turn their happy customers into advocates for their next hungry visitor.
The solution: embedding real customers’ Instagram feeds
By integrating our Instagram feed feature directly onto their website, Pepe’s created an irresistible showcase of user-generated content. Pictures of oozy mozzarella, charred crusts, and smiling customers became the proof future diners needed to make a decision. In just 18 days, the embedded feed generated 33,000 views. That’s 33,000 moments of trust-building, where potential customers saw authentic, unfiltered love for Pepe’s pizzas.
The results: pizza that sells itself
By embedding real customer experiences with the Widget Instagram, Pepe’s transformed its digital presence. Here’s what they achieved:
✅ Expand reach beyond Instagram: Achieving an additional 33,000 views of the Instagram content on their website
✅ Enhanced engagement: Visitors spent more time on the site, drawn in by relatable, peer-driven content.
✅ Social proof in action: Showcasing UGC built immediate trust, helping undecided customers hit “order.”
✅ Organic advocacy: Happy diners became Pepe’s marketers, sharing posts that drove even more traffic to the website.
This proves one thing: seeing is believing. And when customers see other people raving about Pepe’s pizza, it turns curiosity into conversions.
