User reviews

Great App for Night Out

Helped us on a recent trip out of town. Review told us the place we were going had too long of a wait to get in and saved us time and a headache. Now I’m writing reviews on the app to tell others when to avoid a place or come check it out. Great idea to know about where you’re headed.

Great app

Great app, easy to use !

Makes my nights out in NYC much more efficient

I use the app frequently to avoid empty bars/restaurants when I go out with friends in NYC. Makes it much easier to find a place with a fun crowd than by trial and error.

Saved the day!

This app worked great! We would have driven for over 30 minutes for drinks if this app hadn’t found us some spots nearby with a great crowd. App seems to be used more in the late afternoon and evenings.

My fave answer to “Where to next?!”

LOVE this app. All my friends and I agree this app has changed the way we go out at night. It’s real-time checkin (anonymous!!) shows us the answers we need to the dreaded “where to next?! Wether it’s a chill bar with live music or a lively club we’re able to find our answer in seconds.

Highly recommend. 5⭐️
