How it works
Every pin is a price.
It is the cheapest drink you can order at that bar at that moment. Three things to know and you can read the whole city.
-
Navy means happy hour is on.
The price is the happy hour price. The ring is the time it has left: green with plenty, amber as it runs down, red near the end.
-
Blue is the regular menu.
No deal on right now, so you get the cheapest everyday price instead. The map still has an answer at 9 PM.
-
A clock means one is coming.
A happy hour starts there later today. The pin shows the regular price until it does. Slide the time forward and it turns navy.
Tap any pin for the full menu: every drink, its size and what it costs. Filter by beer, wine, cocktails or shots, cap the price, or keep it to patios.
Today in Toronto
Happy hour ends. The map doesn’t.
Most happy hours stop around six. A second round starts at nine, and regular prices are there the rest of the time.

The fine print, basically
Questions we keep getting.
Where do the prices come from?
From each bar’s own menu: its website, a PDF or a photo of the menu. We record every drink with its size and price, and every bar’s page shows the date its menu was last read. It is not crowdsourced. A bar can also claim its page and keep its own prices up to date; in the app, those say “Verified by owner”.
Is Haps only for Toronto?
For now, yes. Toronto first.
Is Haps on Android?
Yes. Haps is free on iPhone (App Store) and Android (Google Play).
Do I need to be 19 or older?
Yes. Those are Ontario’s rules. The app asks once.
Do bars pay to be on the map?
No. Bars don’t pay to be on the map, and the prices come from their own menus.
What are HAPS Nights?
Nights we run with partner bars: a HAPS special on drinks, a DJ, open to everyone and no tickets. Run a bar? See how a HAPS Night works.
What we’re building
The chalkboard, digitized.
A bar’s deals used to live on a chalkboard by the door, and you had to walk past to see them. Haps puts every board in the city on one map, and lets them change with the night.
