Getting home after a night of fun can be a pain, especially if you’ve been drinking at a bar tucked into one of many Philly neighborhoods where cabs don’t normally go. There’s a new solution: Uber. The black car service is the ultimate answer to the taxi problem. No longer are bespoke limos just for executives — if you have a smartphone, you can have a sleek auto at your beck and call any time of day or night. Just download the iPhone or Android app and sign up.

Uber uses professional drivers, so expect great service — the driver might even hold the door open for you, something we’ve experienced multiple times. Slide in and settle back or just crash on the seat in relief and experience a smooth ride home. Another Uber perk? You don’t have to have cash or even a credit card on hand. You’ve already provided your payment info when you signed up, so when the ride is over, all you do is step out of the car. Your account will be charged automatically and you’ll get an emailed receipt.

Pricing is quite reasonable, just a bit higher than a cab, and the sliding scale depends on two things: distance and availability. Plus, we’ve got a promo code that first time users can use to get a free ride (up to $20). Just click over to Uber and sign up with this promo code: DrinkPhilly14. You’ll be on your way to a lifetime of easy riding, starting with a freebie.
