Yelpers are people who post reviews on Yelp, the online platform for rating local businesses.

The term often carries a slightly dismissive tone, suggesting amateur critics whose opinions may be unreliable or overly harsh: The restaurant owner dreaded the yelpers who could tank her ratings over one bad night.
