PubScout
Hi, everybody! It’s my first time posting here so hopefully I can make a good first impression. I’ve been working on a passion project for quite some time now, and I believe it’s finally ready to be shared with the people of Ireland (procrastination and the World Cup kept me busy). I have created a pub directory, called PubScout, the purpose of which is to give pubs across Ireland some publicity on the internet, I want it to be a place where anyone can discover pubs across the country, whether you’re looking for somewhere new to try out, or want to advocate for your local pub to the masses. It’s no secret that pubs in Ireland have had it rough for a long time, I think over 2,000 pubs have closed since 2005, which is staggering. Whether it has been COVID, cost of living constraints and rural population decline, I sympathise deeply with pub owners. Personally, pubs have always been a place of comfort, community and belonging and I would like to give back to the industry that already gives so much. So, PubScout is a hub that aims to record pubs in Ireland, providing people with helpful information such as, location, drink prices, and amenities. The key component to PubScout is that it allows you, the user, to add pubs to the database, hopefully giving pubs needed publicity to a wide audience. Whether you are at Coppers at Harcourt St, or Teach Ósta in Inis Meain, I hope you find of it some use! Sláinte!
You can Google 'pubscout.live' and it should take you there.
P.S. I’m also planning to launch a mobile app version in the future, I know using the browser version may become cumbersome, so hopefully you can benefit from PubScout at its true best soon!
