barhopper
Nightlife venue wanderer
A barhopper is someone who moves from bar to bar in a single outing, typically drinking at each stop.
The activity is barhopping: We went barhopping downtown last night.
The term suggests casual socializing rather than serious drinking, though the two aren't mutually exclusive.
