Search Pages! (Baltimore, Bloomington, Chicago, Milwaukee)

I've just added the new Search Pages. Using a text box on the page, you can enter a simple search phrase to find exactly what you are looking for.

Want Guinness? Enter Guinness into the box and the page will return only those bars that have specials with word "Guinness". Enter the word "wings" and the page will return only those bars that have specials with the word "wings". Pretty cool, no?

Just one word of warning. Specials with things like "all beers" won't turn up when you search for guinness, so if you don't like the results you get, try some alternative phrases and you might find a good alternative.

Have you checked out our new Submission Form?

On the older version of Drinktown, I had a pretty plain and ugly form by which people could submit specials for me to add to the map.

A few weeks ago I added a new Submission Form, one that allows you to tell me about a special, or a bar, that you think I should add to the map. The form allows you to submit the name, address, phone number, and any specials you know of. It also includes a handy little map window that lets you click on the map to tell me where the bar is located. Check it out, send us specials, or tell us which bars we are missing.

In the meantime, I'm wrapping up Law School, and will be updating the pub-crawl pages as soon as I am done.
