Urbanite – discover London’s pubs and restaurants

Urbanite is a cross-platform mobile app for pub and restaurant exploration, offering an extensive list of venues in London and beyond.

How it started?

The idea of Urbanite came to fruition pre pandemic, when the founders were sitting in a pub in London Bridge, with friends, thinking about heading to Soho to continue the night.


The discussion happened of Where to go?
Would they be able to get in?
What was on?
Was it worth the trek?

TH-EY solution

TH-EY were faced with the challenge of building app which will answer those question with minimal info about design and very tight budget. We choose to use cross-platform framework React.Native as a mobile technology to write the code once and deploy to iOS and Android at once. This helped us minimise the cost of development and satisfy all client’s requirements. Along with simple admin panel and backend hosted in AWS cloud, we built a comprehensive solution for pub & restaurant discovery without exceeding the budget.

“We had direct access to multiple team members, and they were always transparent about timelines and costs.”
