Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Resy at 4.9 against Happy Hour Tap's 4.1. Resy also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ratings volume (801K vs 17). Happy Hour Tap's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 43%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Happy Hour Tap sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per month. Resy asks for nothing beyond the download.
Resy holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Resy has 801K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Resy's written reviews are positive against 75% of Happy Hour Tap's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
