Default OT. Free wi-fi locations web site?



Going away so have googled for the free wi-fi location search web sites,
tried 3 of the results. To see how good I put my own post code in as I
know of a couple near me. Most surprised when all these web sites told me
non near me, I live in a city.
I can see McDonalds from here and this I know has free wi-fi.
Anyone know an accurate web site for wi-fi info.?

I think there was some sort of deal with DSG / McDonalds a while ago,
and there was a logon required. Might not be applicable now :-}

I've noticed leaflets with a username and password on in one of the
Wetherspoons I frequent.
