Schlouk Map Is Gone - But France’s Nightlife Just Got an Upgrade

 When Schlouk Map announced its shutdown earlier this year, it marked the end of an era. For nearly a decade, the Strasbourg-born app helped users uncover the best happy hours and cheap bars nearby - becoming a go-to companion for students and afterwork drinkers across France. But as of January 29, 2025, its developers confirmed the app and website were permanently discontinued due to financial constraints

Yet amid this farewell, something new has emerged: a smarter, broader, and more modern alternative that picks up right where Schlouk Map left off

Meet Seeker Social - the next-generation nightlife app designed not just to show you where to drink, but to help you truly experience France’s bar and club scene.

Why Schlouk Map Was Loved:

Schlouk Map earned a loyal following by doing one thing exceptionally well: finding cheap happy hours. Locals in Strasbourg, Paris, and beyond used it to track beer prices, discover partners offering discounts, and join its vibrant “Schlouk Club.”

At its peak, Schlouk Map listed over 15,000 bars across 10 countries and had been downloaded more than 200,000 times.
