I went to Yelp just now to search for restaurants in my area that I may wanna try tonight. Usually when a list of restaurants comes up there is a picture next to the restaurant name. More often than not it is a picture of a dish.
Well, I just came upon one restaurant in the listing where the picture next to its name was of what I am assuming is a restroom stall. Unless it is a tiny room. The toilet is in the center. Not something I want to see when looking for places to eat.
At least the toilet, the plunger, and the floor were all clean.

Hmm, sounds like a way to give a place a bad review.

I could maybe understand if the bathroom was made of marble, etc. This picture is certainly not appealing at all and shouldn't have been used.

@lovebuglena That is strange for sure.

@JamesHxstatic I wonder if the people that did the Yelp listing realized that the picture of the bathroom shows up next to it.

I think when people leave reviews on Yelp they can upload pics. Maybe someone that reviewed the placed uploaded this picture. I don't get why that picture would show up next to the listing though. There were other pictures once you got to the restaurant's page.

It may not be a reviewer's picture.

What I find weird is that where they say what kind of restaurant it is they say coffee & tea, accessories, home decor. That doesn't tell me what kind of food they serve there.

@lovebuglena It's weird to post a picture like that for a restaurant. At least it's clean.

Very weird. I added the pic to the discussion just now. At first I thought maybe this is a picture that a reviewer uploaded but now I am not so sure.

@LadyDuck yeah. And it doesn’t even look that great. The bathroom I mean.

That does sound awful. There used to be a company here that cleaned out septic tanks and also sold ice. Yuck.

@lovebuglena It was probably fine, but the connection to a septic tank company turned my stomach!

I wonder if the ice was okay to use or consume.

Well the main area looks clean, not so sure about the tile.

I think the tile is clean. It's just ugly looking.

I agree. I wonder why whoever it was chose to include that in the listing.

That didn't ruin my appetite but I surprised to see that.
