Pay wall so immediately deleted
Ugh, of course after entering personal information it forces you to sign up before you even get to use the app at all. No option to enter to the app or try it without subscribing (eff the 7 day free trial). No thanks! Bye
Great app

I recently moved to a new city and started using Places to discover new spots to check out. I’ve loved finding hidden gems and taking locals to places they haven’t even been to before. It’s become such a fun way to explore my new home and find places I probably wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. Definitely recommend!

Taste I can trust
Aesthetics and quality matter deeply to me, and my bar is super high. As a designer who loves fine dining, I usually plan trips by jumping between AI, reviews, blogs, and socials, trying to suss out the vibe and calibrate other people's reviews to my taste level. Places clearly applies the same level of scrutiny I do, so I can actually trust the recs. On a recent trip to Japan, it surfaced lovely handmade ceramics shops, aesthetic cafes, and restaurants as beautiful as they were delicious, some I never would have found on other platforms. No mediocre filler, just high quality spots with real vibes. It lets me relax my type A side and trust that anywhere on Places is worthwhile.

Great curation and fun to explore
Started using this app after a friend sent me a link. Love the curated experts and their lists as well as the travel lists. Would love to see more notes for more personal tips, but the app design is really nice overall and I’m excited to keep exploring it. Keep adding destinations too!
Who would pay for this app?
Ask for phone number, requires sign up, ask for expensive subscription right away, I could just use an ai for better curated places. This app just shows restaurants and useless
An Elevated Guide
I don’t write reviews very often, if I’m being honest I don’t think I’ve ever, but there’s something so natural with Places I believe everyone should experience it.
Whenever I am looking for something new whether it’s a restaurant or experience, I’ve always hesitated with the never ending amount of options making it feel impossible to choose. Places curation removes that anxiety and makes it exciting to try and find new “places.” I’ve even started finding places that have inspired me to go to cities I’ve never been before. If you want to try something new and have it be great you’ll probably find it on Places.

This isn't like any travel app you've used before.
Stop counting stars and hoping the place is half decent. Places shows you where to eat, drink, and stay, the kind of spots you'll still be talking about years later. No travel hacks, just the real thing, so you can live like an insider anywhere in the world.
Places + Table tonight is 🤌
I love the way Places helps reduce decision paralysis when traveling. Being able to cut through the paid promotions and inflated ratings to find experiences that are recommend solely on the merit of being worthwhile is refreshing. Additionally I love the flexibility table tonight provides for our travel plans, allowing us to get swept up in the moment instead of being beholden to a strict schedule knowing that we will still be able to find a great place to dine that night. Overall the app is beautifully designed and the concept + functionality blend seamlessly to create a must have tool for any travelers looking to enhance their experiences.

Best app to share recs with friends
I tell everyone about this app! It’s so well-designed, intuitive, and easy to use. It’s incredibly helpful for planning trips or even finding yourself in a new city last minute. The recommendations are always so reliable! I genuinely love it!
Great for finding vibey spots
I first used this app to plan a trip to Copenhagen, and it made it so much easier to find great spots without doing all the research. I’ve since used it at home too and found new places I hadn’t tried before. I’ve really liked their recommendations so far!
Curation in a time of noisy information
I am so inundated by information on restaurants - Yelp, Google Reviews, DoorDash, etc. it’s exhausting. It’s also hard to sort through which endorsements are sponsored, which recommendations are well-founded, and which establishments merit the hype.
Places to me cuts through the noise and is now my first stop. Through it, I’ve found some of my favorite LA restaurants and coffee shops, as well as some hidden gems in cities like London and Dublin.
I have no more time for apps whose attention can be bought. Places is a breath of fresh air.

Elevated Guide to Places I Want to Check Out
Places feels like exactly what I’ve always needed. When I’m exploring my own city or visiting somewhere new, I want help narrowing down the restaurants and experiences I simply have to know about. The information is clean, organized, and clutter-free, and the curated search has never failed me. I’ve enjoyed wonderful meals and discovered amazing museums and parks thanks to the collection I have access to. Having the website, address (with direct links to maps), hours, Instagram link, and a few excellent photos gives me everything I need to get a feel for a place and find exactly the vibe I’m looking for.

I love this app!
I travel often and use this app to find the best spots where I am. It is a must have for anyone traveling. They do an amazing job curating experiences I would not have found otherwise. Again, everyone should have this tool while traveling.
No better way to discover your next favorite location!
I absolutely love Places! There is no better way to discover a new city, restaurants, hotels, museums, shops or hidden gems. It makes planning trips and finding recommendations from friends or their trusted curators seamless. Places is incredibly intuitive, convenient, and perfect for anyone who loves exploring. Highly, highly recommend!

Best Travel App
Unmatched curation. I have a few travel apps but this is the only one I will use going forward. It has made my travel to new cities easier and much more enjoyable. Every restaurant, shop, park etc curated by Places has been a 10/10. The best.
The Place
Places is the go to for the go to. There is nowhere else like it on the interwebs, no collection nor curation that you’ll be able to find. Wherever you find yourself places does actually help you find the places. It works, it’s user interface is intuitive, and looks really good. I use it at home and when on the road. Always somewhere new to find.

Too many places, quality has gone down.
Been on this app since it launched, overall I’m a big fan, but recently I’ve noticed that many large cities that the bar of quality has gone down and there are too many recommendations. I think it would help to be a little more selective to make sure people are getting the best of the best!
Useless unless you want to waste Money
Requires payment, just use Google Maps or TripAdvisor to find good places... No way to delete account either from
the App.
