How does it work?

no guide, no app, just WhatsApp

A pub crawl with a treasure hunt inside it. A legendary Shoreditch bartender tore their favourite cocktail recipe into eight pieces and hid one in each of eight bars. Your team finds each pub, finds what's hidden inside, and rebuilds the drink.

    Scan the QR code, add your name, your team and your WhatsApp number. One captain's phone plays for the whole team.
