Frequently asked questions
What is this Placelist?
A shortlist of covered, heated rooftop bars and winter terraces in London. Add where everyone is starting from and they are ranked by how evenly the journey is shared, so nobody has to guess where halfway is.
How are these ranked?
By how evenly the journey is shared across your group, not by popularity, sponsorship or who suggested the place first. Start a plan from this Placelist, add where everyone is starting from, and see the ranked shortlist.
Do I need everyone in the same area of London?
No. FairWhere is built for groups coming from different zones. Add each person's start location and it ranks venues so the travel burden is as fair as possible across the group.
Is this free to use?
Browsing Placelists and creating a basic plan with estimate-only ranking is free in the London beta. Optional live checks and deeper routing may use credits where offered.
