Coming into the weekend and the most exciting thing
I have found this week comes from two 20-something entrepreneurs based in the
Windy City - Chicago! Adam Cowie and Justin Cerone are the two gentlemen
behind this start up. These two high school classmates came together and
developed something we all wished existed - last weekend.
Have you ever been seated at a table in a bar and
the waitress has the speed of Cecil Fielder or the bar is as packed as a can of
sardines. During these instances, have you ever wished you could order
your drinks, know exactly what you ordered and not worry about the waitress
messing up the order? Now you actually can! TabApp is a new
app for the iPhone/Android that allows you to order drinks and other menu items
while sitting at your table all while you pay via credit card on your
smartphone. No more going back to the bar to track down that elusive lost
credit card. And most importantly, the waiting is limited.
Right now, the interface and design of the app is
very basic but that is to be expected given its first generation design and
limited funding. Remember Rome Facebook was not built in a day
either. At the moment, it is only being implemented in a few bars in
Chicago but I’ve got a hunch it’ll catch on very quickly. It is only a
matter of time before TabApp is the premier app for the city that never
sleeps. Look for it in the App store for both Android and Apple - http://www.thetabapp.com/.
If you're interested in learning more, the founders would be happy to talk to you!
