Sober Bars

About

Sober Bars is a directory of venues that serve no alcohol: alcohol-free bars and non-alcoholic bottle shops. The server lets an assistant list places and categories, search venues by text, place and category, and fetch a single venue record. Results carry attribution and source license details.

It runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at soberbars.fyi/mcp. No sign-in or API key is needed for the read tools. A service token in the Authorization header can expose additional write tools, depending on its scopes.

What you can do

• Get one venue record by slug

[![Sober Bars on mcp.tc](https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars/badge.svg)](https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars)

HTML

<a href="https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars"><img src="https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars/badge.svg" alt="Sober Bars on mcp.tc" height="20"></a>

It follows the reader’s light or dark mode. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to fix it, or ?style=compact to show the mark without the word.

Website card

HTML

<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/sober-bars.js" async></script>

The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.

iframe

HTML

<iframe src="https://mcp.tc/embed/sober-bars" title="Sober Bars on mcp.tc" width="420" height="200" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" style="border:0;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"></iframe>

Use it on pages that don’t allow scripts. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the address to fix the colors.

JSON

The listing as data for your own pages and tools: name, tagline, the server’s own URL, tools and the “Add to” links. Any site can read it (CORS is open).

What each field means

AI prompt

Paste this into an AI coding assistant, such as Claude Code or Cursor, and it adds the Sober Bars card to your site.

Markdown

Add the mcp.tc card for Sober Bars, an MCP server, to my website. It is one static script: no build step, no package to install, no cookies.

Put this tag where the card should appear. The card renders right before it:

```html
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/sober-bars.js" async></script>
```

To show the card somewhere else, put this placeholder there and load the same script once, for example before `</body>`. Keep the link inside: visitors without JavaScript see it.

```html
<div data-mcptc="sober-bars"><a href="https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars">Sober Bars on mcp.tc</a></div>
```

Options:
- `data-theme="light"` or `"dark"` on the tag or the placeholder fixes the colors. Without it, the card follows the visitor’s light or dark mode.
- `data-size="compact"` gives a smaller card without the tagline.
- The CSS variable `--mcptc-max-width` on the placeholder or a parent sets the width (default `520px`).
- `?lang=` on the script URL sets the card’s language: `en`, `it`, `fr`, `de` or `es`.

If the site has a Content Security Policy, allow `script-src https://mcp.tc` and `img-src data:` (the icon is inline).

For a README or other Markdown docs, use the badge instead:

```markdown
[![Sober Bars on mcp.tc](https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars/badge.svg)](https://mcp.tc/i/sober-bars)

   Server instructions

   Before

   Sober Bars lists alcohol-free venues. Call list_places and list_categories first to learn the place and category slugs. Then call search_listings, and get_listing for one record. Every result has meta.attribution and meta.sources. Show the credit line, and keep the license of each source. A alcohol-free venue is a record, not an endorsement. list_product_categories, list_products and get_product read the affiliate products. A price is the one seen on price_as_of, not a live price; buy_url is an affiliate link. With a service token in the Authorization header, tools/list also offers the write tools that the token's scopes allow.
