If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, the Bar Roulette web app uses Uber and Yelp to send you to a highly rated bar in your area. The trick is that you don’t know where you’re going until you get there.
The app, created by product manager Tyler Swartz, uses Uber’s new ride request API functionality and Yelp’s massive collection of bar reviews to do all the hard work. All you have to do is sign into the web app with your Uber account and request a ride; everything else gets done for you. The driver gets the destination sent to them via the web app and off you go! When you arrive, the web app finally tells you the name of the bar so you know what to look for. Obviously, this is only for the adventurous, or indecisive people eager to discover new places, but it might make for a fun Friday night. There’s no dedicated app yet, so just head to the web app at the link below to give a shot.
