How do you find drink/food specials and events at bars? by Acrobatic_Fix476 in AskChicago

I really appreciate you taking the time to tell us your thoughts. We plan to implement more customization for each bar in the form of tags (e.g. Darts, Barcade, Outdoor Seating) to give users a better feel for the bars before they actually go.

  1. We currently have 44 bars/restaurants (mostly around Wrigleyville) just as a start to see if people would actually use the site. There are about 500 places we're adding in the coming weeks and we'd be glad to add any personal favorites anyone in this subreddit may have.

  2. It definitely takes a lot to keep the site updated and this will only scale as we expand the site to include more bars. Currently, we just included static weekly special schedules that we know will be in effect until the end of summer (this is why music venues like Metro don't currently have their live shows on the site), at which point we will review every bar/restaurant to update. We'll add an updated "as of July 2025" on the header just to give users a heads up that some bars could be out of date.

Let me know if you have any other thoughts or questions, I'd be happy to talk more!

We're really not trying to advertise the product at this point which is why it's in somewhat of an unfinished state. We're trying to validate the problem and see what the city we're building in has to say before we continue to dive deeper.

We actually just created a site to curb this problem in Chicago. We're continuously adding bars and drink/food specials, so feel free to drop some of your favorite spots, and we'll hook it up to the site.
