Fall River’s Most Popular Restaurants Ranked By Real Mobile Location Traffic Data

SouthCoast cell phone data has revealed the 10 busiest restaurants in Fall River.

We are so lucky to be surrounded by so many mom and pop, locally owned restaurants here on the SouthCoast. What separates New Bedford and Fall River restaurants from places in other parts of the state and New England?

First, I'd say it's our expertise in Portuguese food. While some people roll their eyes when they see "another" Portuguese restaurant open their doors, there's no denying that no one does that type of food better than the SouthCoast.

Second, what sets our restaurants apart is the incredibly low prices. Compared to out-of-town restaurants, you're going to have to look far and wide to find a group of restaurants that offer as much value as our restaurants around here.

Third, no one can touch our seafood. So when you combine seafood with a little taste of Portugal, you have something that just can't be achieved elsewhere.

One of my favorite things to do is to try new restaurants. When I'm not here on the SouthCoast, I have a rule of thumb that seems to work very well. I always keep an eye out for restaurants that have a wait. My theory is that if a restaurant is busy, there's probably a good reason. Usually restaurants that are busy are either really tasty, have a really good value, or (the home run) both.

I don't even tend to care if there is good service at a restaurant. Even if a place has bad service, it's something I can overlook if the food is really good.

A New Tool to Measure Foot Traffic

We decided to try out our new AI tool, Placer.ai, and use it to research Fall River results. Using cell phone tracking technology, Placer.ai gave us data and listed the Fall River locations that were the busiest with foot traffic.

How Placer.ai Works

You don't have to worry, though. Placer.ai does not know who these people are, only their demographic information. If you are a business owner, and would like free information about the foot traffic to your business, contact Mark Stachowski at Fun107.com.

What This Data Reveals About Local Restaurants

First, we had Placer.ai rank the most popular restaurants in New Bedford. Now we thought it would be fun to do the same thing with the restaurants in Fall River.
