Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Pressed Cafe at none against Tavern Insider's shown. Pressed Cafe also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
