About

Founded in 2017, Buns and Bites started as a hobby involving going out to eat and taking cheeky pictures with the tasty food we enjoyed. The concept was based on self love, eating food we enjoyed and embracing our bodies just the way they are. Social media can be a harsh place to exist as a young woman; we are constantly being told we must compare ourselves to an unachievable standard. Buns and Bites is a page where all body types are celebrated, all foods are adored, and all around good fun happens.

Now in 2022, Buns and Bites has become one of the top landing pages for hungry Instagrammers to look up what to eat. With a following over 40k, and five annual awards as the Best RI Instagram from Rhode Island Monthly, Buns and Bites serves you the best food recommendations on a silver platter. If you’re hungry in Rhode Island, just start scrolling, we promise you will find dinner soon. ​

The eye behind our content is Jacquelina Paiva, but you might know her as Jackaaalack. Jackie is the brilliant photographer for Buns and Bites, and responsible for most of the photos across the site. We wouldnt be here without her!
