About

Read full description

PinPint is the price of a pint, kept honest by the people drinking it. Open the map and 14,420 pubs are on it. Every pub on the island of Ireland, north and south, and every pub in ten British cities: London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, Newcastle, Glasgow and Edinburgh. Each one is coloured by what a pint costs there: green where it is cheap for the town, amber where it is dear. Tap one to see the figure, who paid it, and how busy the place is right now. WHAT YOU CAN DO Find the cheapest pint near you. The map ranks the lowest prices within walking distance, so you know before you leave the house. Keep a passport. Mark the pubs you have been to, rate them, pick your local. It is yours, it syncs to your account, and you can make it a shareable page or keep it private. Log what you paid. Thirty seconds at the bar keeps the map right for the next person. The more people who do it, the better it gets. See what is on. Music, quizzes and deals at pubs near you for the next three weeks. Climb the leaderboard. Who has been to the most pubs, in your town, in your country, and everywhere. Check in. Tell everyone a place is busy without saying a word, and see the live count build over the night. Plan a crawl. Pick the stops, get a code you can read out, and keep the whole group in one thread for the night. An organiser can rally everyone when it is time to move on. Add your friends. See where they have been and what they made of it. PRIVACY No ads. No trackers. No analytics. Your location is used only while the app is open, to show you what is nearby, and it is never stored as a trail. You can delete your account and everything in it from Settings, on your phone, at any time. PinPint is an independent Irish project. Prices are logged by users and are not guaranteed; always check with the pub. You must be 18 or over to use PinPint.
