Everything you need to know about Chowtrail

Chowtrail is a platform designed to help you and your favorite people capture the meals you love, track the dishes you try, and remember the stories behind every visit. Perfect for date nights, foodie friends, and family traditions.
Sign up for an account (we're currently in beta with invite-only access), create a shared list with your partner or friends, and start logging your restaurant visits. You can rate dishes, add notes, and build a shared memory bank of your dining experiences.
You can use Chowtrail on your own to track your personal dining experiences, but it's designed to shine when shared. Invite partners, friends, or family members to create shared lists and collaborate on planning your next meals together.
For each restaurant visit, you can record the date, location, dishes you ordered, ratings for each dish, personal notes, and photos. You can also see what others in your group ordered and their reviews.
We're currently in beta and offering free access to early users. As we grow, we may introduce premium features, but core functionality will remain accessible.
When you create a list, you can invite others by email. They'll receive an invitation and can join your shared list once they sign up. You can also accept invitations from others who want to share their lists with you.
Yes! You have full control over your visits. You can create private visits that only you can see, or share them with specific lists and people. Your privacy is important to us.
Chowtrail is built specifically for shared experiences. Instead of just reviewing restaurants, we focus on the dishes you tried, the memories you made, and making it easy to plan your next meal together with the people who matter most.
