Whether you consider yourself a slocal or a newbie to the “Happiest Place in America,” (thanks for the shoutout Oprah) look no further than these SLO-based Instagram accounts when debating a place to eat or just indulge in savory food porn.
San Luis Obispo is a huge college town, filled with hungry students and entrepreneurs looking for hipster hangouts, late night munchies, suitable restaurants for parents weekends and boozy hot spots. Our donut craving, garden growing, beach loving Mustangs are foodie all-stars. And if our Cal Poly call is Learn by Doing, then obviously we do all things bigger and better, including our food.If you aren’t following these accounts right now, chances are you haven’t hit up the popular non-touristy foodie caves SLO has to offer. Prepare your eyes for scanning only the best gooey, greasy, and even leafy green food items.
This account is run by two women, Destiny and Andrea. Their bio reads “Two foodies taking iPhone quality pictures of some high quality food.” They focus on hitting up tasty lunch and snack places.

Made and run by Cal Poly grad Sophie Ratkovich, this Insta-foodie scouts and shoots pictures of the best eateries in SLO and all over the world! From chicken and waffles, to juice smoothies and ahi plates, this Insta account takes a bite out of several types of food.

This healthy foodie is a self-proclaimed happy, healthy, and hungry Cal Poly gal. Her account focuses on plant-based foods and wholesome nutrition. Check out her page (and her linked blog) for clean-eating inspiration.

This account posts daily photos of a wide variety of SLO eats, from burritos, to lamb, to cocktails and waffles. It takes on some of the more adventurous items you see on menus, but might be too intimidated to try. No worries, @slofoodies has got your back…and your belly!

This Central Coast food photographer works for Edible SLO, which means she's really good at what she does. Don't believe me? Check out her IG @jenjoi and try to let your mouth not water I dare you!

The most popular donut place for Cal Poly students, (and one of my favorite clients!) in San Luis Obispo is definitely SloDoCo. Being open 24/7 and constantly posting photos of their innovative donuts, they’re hard to beat.
