Do you spend a lot of time traveling around the country because of work? If you don’t travel to the same city every time I bet you don’t know where to go for your favorite beer. You won’t know where your favorite dish is served and if it’s tasty or not. Take a look at some of these apps that will give you all the information you need when you head out on the road again.

Beerby

When you go for a beer these days you don’t have to stick to Budweiser because there are a huge amount of smaller breweries competing for your attention. You could try a different beer every time you go out, but I’m pretty sure you would be left disappointed more times than not. That wouldn’t happen if you used the Beerby app because you could pick out the best beers straight away. It’s a great app to use when you’re traveling around the country so you know where to go for the best beer.

LocalEats

I think a lot of people forget about the little guys. They see these massive chain restaurants and stick to places they know, but when you’re in any city in the US there will be amazing local restaurants you will never get to experience. The trouble is finding the smaller restaurants in the first place and now that you can download the LocalEats app you can say goodbye to boring chains for good. There are far too many different restaurants to name them all, so the ones on the app are only the best out there.

Chocolate Travel

When you’re growing up your favorite food is probably chocolate because it tastes so creamy and delicious. Once you get older you know chocolate isn’t great for you, but it’s still your guilty pleasure. The Chocolate Travel app will help you feel a lot guiltier because it will take you on a wild adventure around the world visiting the best chocolate shops, restaurants, and festivals. Just remember flights are sold separately and some of the photos on the app will cause you to book them at random.

Foodspotting

Some smart individual realized reviewing restaurants isn’t really the best idea in the world. If someone says the roast chicken is great at a particular restaurant it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll enjoy eating there because all dishes are not the same. Maybe it would be better if people reviewed individual dishes, which is where the Foodspotting app comes into play. If you want a particular dish you will be able to find out who does the best one in your local area so you are guaranteed great-tasting food.

OpenTable

Have you noticed how you can book an airplane seat when booking your flight online? You see a big airplane and you just need to tap on the seat you want as long as it’s not already taken. Now you can do the exact same thing when booking a restaurant table. Just choose what time you want to go then click on the table you want directly through the app. Never again will you have to wait for hours at the bar because you didn’t have a table pre-booked.

The world is opening up

Can you remember what it was like when we didn’t have any of these apps available? It felt like you were doing everything blind and maybe it still does if you’ve not embraced the app culture yet. Most of these apps concentrate on the US, but the entire world is out there getting picked apart at this very moment. You will have all the information you need at your fingertips very soon indeed if you get the right apps.
