Must be a NYC thing, because I walked into a Starbucks the other morning and went to the bathroom and it wasn’t an issue.
It is an urban thing. NYC tried paid toilets stalls like they have in Europe. They quickly turned into drug and prostitution stalls so the toilets were removed.
The suburbs don’t have the number of derelicts, bums, and addicts which the urban areas do. When you offer bathrooms to the homeless, they quickly make them impossible to keep clean for the paying customers.
Within NYC, I’ve been to three Starbucks, and none had a public restroom. I think most coffee shops (not just Starbucks), within high urbanized areas....don’t have a public rest-room.
Yeah, that's easy for we Bible-clinging gun-toting rednecks to say, but out east they frown on people using their broom closet.
Star … bucks
their prices are out of this world ??
Anyone else experiencing ‘service’ stations, convenience stores with restrooms OUT OF ORDER ?
It's an urban thing and - Surprise! - the original case that started all this was in a big city. It's normal in big cities for restaurants to insist you buy something to access their restrooms because otherwise they will get trashed by the homeless and worse. But now common sense isn't allowed because PC. so the predictable result is that in a city the bathrooms are either terribly disgusting now OR they don't exist for anyone anymore.
If only feel-good lefties had enough brain cells to project their thoughts into the future and imagine the obvious consequences of their foolishness the world would be a much better place. But they go through life continuously surprised and outraged that their stupid emotion based politics makes things worse, and they apply more emotion based politics to "solve" the new problem in an endless cycle of destruction.
