How To Plan the Perfect Bar Crawl
Most people appreciate the fun value of social drinking. Whether it’s a grill-out at home or a favorite bar where you meet up with friends, drinking a beer with friends can really hit the spot. For special occasions, though, you need a little something extra. Planning a pub crawl with your friends is a great idea for birthdays, reunions, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or a summer celebration. Here are a few tips to help you get started.
- Pick an area. You’ll want to find somewhere that has plenty of fun bars, good transportation and parking, and a close ride back home.
- Find your bars. There are some great websites, like BarFinder, that you can use to track down the best places to visit.
- Get your transportation figured out before you start drinking. Designate your driver, plan a cab, get quarters for the bus; do what you need to do! Uber and Lyft are newer services that can be pretty handy for carting people around, and they have apps!
- Pace yourself. We all love a good drink, but you have to keep your last drink in mind at the first bar. Know your limits, and enjoy your drinks within them!
- Photograph the night. Use a group hashtag or have all your friends upload pictures into a shared folder (Google Drive and Flickr are great options)
