How Do You Find The Best Local Bars And Pubs?

There are literally thousands of bars and pubs in NYC. Local bars and pubs are a staple of the Big Apple. For the most part they all have their unique flavor and style. Some are just good old neighborhood watering holes. Others may be more hip and trendy. Some are sweater and jeans, while others require more formal dress. But the thing you’re looking for is not only a venue’s character and atmosphere, but the type of people it draws. After all, if you’re in your 20s or 30s, you certainly don’t want to end up in a bar where the youngest patrons are roughly the age of your grandparents, and they’re still arguing about a play in a Red Sox-Yankees game way back in 1993. By the same token, you don’t want to spend an evening in a pub where 90% of the other patrons are the same sex as you. Seriously now, what fun is that? Answer? None!

So, it’s Saturday evening and you need a place to go. What do you do?

Chances are, the same thing you’ve been doing forever. You head for the bar down the street. It’s a nice enough place, but you’re going to run into the same crowd, have the same conversations, and everything is – well – the same. Not exactly the most stimulating evening you’ve ever had. No new interesting chat, no interesting new people, and you’ve just dug your rut a little bit deeper. You really want to break out of the same-old rut, but how do you do it? The answer is a great new app called Trist.

What is Trist?

Trist is the app that will help you find the best local bars and pubs. Or most certainly, the best ones that fit your needs. It does this in an entirely new manner. How? Demographics. When you log onto www.gotrist.com, you’ll get a review of thousands of local bars and pubs in the city. But this is not your usual review. Trist will tell you the makeup of the crowd that’s there – at that precise moment. How many females, how many males, how many in their 20s, 30s, or any other age group. And again, this is in real time. It changes minute to minute.

So let’s say you’ve had your eye on a certain pub.

It’s maybe 6PM, you check it out on Trist and it tells you that the ratio of males to females is 8-2. Not at all promising from your point of view. But, you recheck at 6:30PM and the ratio is more like 5-5. A half hour later, the ladies have it at 6-4 in your age group. So, what you wouldn’t have considered an hour ago, now looks like it could be a fun and promising evening, and you’re on your way out the door. Is this not great?

And it’s not just for Saturday.

You can use it for any day of the week, 24/7/365. How about meeting some new folks on Wednesday for a drink after work? Trist will point you in the right direction. No guesswork. And it’s so simple to operate. You might want to check this out before another Saturday is staring you in the face!
