🍹 Introducing Happy Hour API — A Simple Way to Add Local Drink Deals to Your App

Our Website

I’m working on a small project that I think could be genuinely helpful for developers building location-based apps, city guides, nightlife tools, or anything that benefits from real-world food & drink data.

It’s called Happy Hour API — a lightweight service that gives you structured happy hour deals by city.
Even though it’s early and the dataset is tiny right now, the idea is straightforward:

You make a request → you get back organized happy hour info you can use anywhere.

Why I think it’s useful:

It’s a data type that’s annoying to collect manually

There’s no simple free API for this

Great for beginners building projects

Great for devs making prototypes or “explore your city” features

Great for blogs, student apps, or local deal widgets

If this is something you’d want to include in a project, I’d love to know.

🌎 Want this to grow?

I’m collecting interest to decide if it’s worth expanding.
If you want more cities, more restaurants, and a full dataset:

👉 Sign up on the website and request your city.

It takes 10 seconds, and it helps me know whether to keep building this out.

Thanks for checking it out — excited to see if developers actually want something like this.
