Be the place
to be.
Squad puts local, independent spots in front of friend groups who are actively deciding where to go. The right suggestion at the right moment.
This page is for local spots only.
Chains and big brands — this isn't for you.
Squad users decide where to go, who to go with, and when. They want somewhere that actually feels like here— a bar run by someone who cares about the neighbourhood, a restaurant where the owner still picks the wine list, a climbing gym that doesn't look like a corporate wellness centre.
Friends open Squad
A group of friends is planning their evening, weekend, or next Saturday. They're actively deciding where to go.
We surface your spot
When a group is looking for a place, we surface local spots that fit the moment. You show up when it matters most.
They show up
Real friend groups with real plans walk through your door. No inflated metrics, no conversion promises.
What we don't do
We don't guarantee conversions. We don't inflate your numbers. We don't pretend that marketing can fix a bad experience.
If your place is cool, people will come. If it's not, that's not our problem.
Who this is for
Independent restaurants, bars, and cafés. Local event spaces and venues. Activity providers — escape rooms, climbing gyms, cooking classes, bike rentals, anything that's better with friends. If you're the kind of place people tell their mates about, we want to work with you.
