A better way to find a great night out
Finding a good night out usually means scrolling through reviews and hoping a venue has live music tonight. F&B Social flips that around. Performers check in when they go live, so you can see who is on stage right now, at which restaurant, bar or lounge, and how far away it is.
It is also a social network. Give a thumbs up to the people and performers you would like to meet, send a heart or flowers, and chat once you are connected. And when you just cannot decide where to eat, Surprise Me picks a well-rated place near you with one tap, with no account needed.
