The best foodie app

Favhiker is one of the best app for foodies when it comes to getting suggestions on the best food spots. Most useful while on travel

My Favourite app

Favhiker is one of my favourite app. So far it’s given the best suggestions for food joints especially on travel and matching my taste .

Very good app once you understand the concept

Favhiker is a fantastic app for food lovers who want personalised and reliable dish recommendations. The app matches profile to your unique taste and recommended history, making food discovery easy and fun. Its vibrant community brings together local and global foodies to share trusted suggestions and hidden gems anywhere. The badge system rewards favorite dishes, adding a fun social element. Travel Mode is especially helpful for finding the best local eats while travelling to new cities. Favhiker has truly changed how I explore food, by offering real recommendations from people who share their recommendations for love of food and good cuisine. It’s a bit tricky to use till you are familiar with the app and once you understand how favhiker works it's perfect for anyone who enjoys discovering and sharing their great food.

Best App for Food discovery

I’ve been using Favhiker for almost a year now. Honestly, in the beginning the app was not very user-friendly, but over time it has improved a lot and I’ve also gotten used to it. The reason I still stick with Favhiker is because of the unique problem they are solving.

What I really like is the Taste Matching and City Explorers feature – it feels like getting recommendations directly from locals in every city who matchs my taste preferences. FYI - This is not a food delivery app, it’s something different. The way Favhiker uses recommendations instead of regular reviews feels like the next evolution of how we will discover food in future.

At first, you might also wonder, “How does this really work?” – but the only way to understand is by actually using it. Kudos to the Favhiker team for building this idea and taking on such a challenge. Full support from me and my friends – keep going, we love what you’re doing! 🙌

Nice concept

It's a nice concept, but the execution needs work. It has the potential to develop beyond a simple vibe coding project.

Interesting app that creates genuine interactions

I’ve been using FavHiker for a few months now, and it’s become my go-to for discovering hidden culinary gems around the city. I love how it tailors suggestions to my tastes and shows me dishes my friends actually recommend—no more generic picks! The badge system (“GoldenBites” awards) makes exploring fun, and Travel Mode is a lifesaver when I’m on the road. It truly feels like having a foodie friend guiding each meal. That said, I’d love a guest‑preview before sign‑up, but once I created an account, the community insights made it worth it.

Writing review after using for 6 months

Favhiker is like asking a trusted friend what to eat!

I’ve always struggled to decide where and what to eat, especially in new places. But Favhiker makes it super easy! Instead of random reviews, I get food recommendations from people I actually trust and follows—friends, foodies, and even locals.

I also love how it’s not just about ratings. People share real recs about dishes they liked, where to find them, It feels personal and helpful.

If you love trying new food and don’t want to rely on fake or paid reviews, Favhiker is perfect. It’s simple, fun, and actually usefulness is based on users thoughts, I found it a bit hard to use initally but now it’s awesome.

I Highly recommend favhiker for all food lovers! 🍲✨

Pointless

I don't understand why u need this when u can use google reviews. And they want us to buy the premium version??!!

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you for your honest feedback — we truly appreciate it. 🙏 We understand Google Reviews is helpful when you already know the restaurant or are just browsing nearby. But FavHiker works differently. There are no text reviews or star ratings here. Instead, we highlight only the most loved dishes through our unique Golden Bites system, awarded by real food explorers. 🍽️🏅 It’s not about general opinions — it’s about what to eat and why it’s worth it. Imagine you’re craving the best momos or authentic shawarma — instead of scrolling endlessly through mixed reviews, FavHiker instantly shows you the top-rated dishes loved by real people who’ve actually tried them. 😋🍽️ You also get: 💫 Recommendations from top food explorers you can trust. 🏙️ City-wise discussion channels to discover local gems and share your finds. 🚀 An optional premium version that unlocks more curated features — only if you want it! We also understand there might be a visual learning curve for new users, and we’re actively working on that. We highly recommend exploring the app for a bit — it’ll start to click. 💡📱 Thanks again for your feedback — it helps us grow stronger. 🙌 Keep exploring and sharing your favourites!

Enable a guest mode

It would be great if the app offered an option to try it without requiring a login. Being able to explore the features first would really help. Personally, when I see a login screen right away, I hesitate—and I’m sure many others feel the same.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the feedback, Sayoooj! 🙏 We totally understand — jumping straight into a login screen can feel a bit restrictive. Your point makes complete sense, and we’re already exploring a guest mode to let users preview the app before signing up. 👀✨ Since FavHiker is a community-driven platform focused on trusted recommendations, sign-in helps us keep things authentic. But we hear you — making the experience smoother and more welcoming is a top priority. Appreciate your suggestion — it genuinely helps us build a better app. Stay tuned for updates! 🙌📱

Disappointed by Mandatory Login

I was excited to try FavHiker, but unfortunately, the mandatory account creation with personal details like an email before even previewing the app is a major red flag. Trust is earned, and forcing users to hand over their information without allowing a simple guest mode or trial experience feels restrictive and unnecessary. Privacy-conscious users like myself prefer apps that are transparent and respect user choices. If FavHiker wants to build trust, they should reconsider this approach and allow users to explore the app before committing to an account. Looking forward to seeing improvements in future.

Hi! Thank you for your honest and thoughtful feedback — we truly appreciate you taking the time to share it. 🙏 We completely understand your concern about privacy and the need for a guest mode or trial experience. You're absolutely right — trust is earned, and we’re actively working on ways to improve that first impression. To clarify, FavHiker isn’t just a restaurant listing platform — it’s a community-driven app where real people share their favourite dishes city by city. 🍲✨ That’s why we currently require sign-up — not to collect unnecessary data, but to create a trusted space and avoid random spammers or bots from diluting the experience. ✅ That said, we hear you loud and clear. We’re exploring the idea of a guest preview mode so users can explore before committing — while still keeping the community authentic and meaningful. Thanks again for your valuable input — it genuinely helps us improve. We hope to welcome you back as we roll out new updates! 🙌

Too many ads

Even for a free version, the ads are too much. This is like totally neglecting free users. They could’ve just limited features instead of attacking us with ads. Its just frustrating to use.
