Pub Mate helps you find real pubs — not generic bars.
Pub Mate helps you find great pubs nearby — quickly, simply, and without the noise.
Pub Mate isn’t a directory of every bar, brewery, or drinking spot. It’s built specifically to help you find proper pubs — the kind of places meant for conversation, community, and a well-poured pint.
We use a custom filtering approach to identify establishments that fit a more traditional pub vibe, based on factors like naming, categories, and context. While no system is perfect, Pub Mate aims to surface places that feel like pubs — not clubs, cocktail lounges, or taprooms.
Whether you’re exploring a new city or looking for a local favorite, Pub Mate makes it easy to discover pubs around you using a clean map and list view designed for clarity and speed.
Features:
• Find pubs near your current location or anywhere on the map
• Adjust search distance to discover walkable pubs or explore farther out
• Drag the map and instantly search new areas
• View pubs on a map or in a clean, scrollable list
• Simple, intuitive design built for real-world use
Pub Mate is designed to be fast, focused, and intentional — no accounts, no clutter, just pubs.
Please enjoy responsibly.
