People typically frequent a bar or restaurant for two reasons: the menu items and the ambience. And if you’re entering a dining establishment for the first time, a unique vibe alone can be persuasive enough to make you want to sit down and order.
These bars and restaurants are a testament to the creativity of people when it comes to aesthetics. Through these photos, you will see how some places go above and beyond just to provide customers with an experience they likely won’t get elsewhere.

#15 This Bar Has Over $10000 In Dollar Bills On The Ceiling
The place is called Turtle Rock Cafe in Napa.
I talked to the owner and he said the place has been open since the 1960’s and the dollar bill thing started in the 80’s a practical joke on the original owner (current owners dad). Him and his good friend got into an argument so his friend stapled his “tip” to the ceiling.
More and more people started doing the same and it became a tradition. Every 20 years, they take down all the bills and donate the funds to charity. The last time it happened the total was $20000!

#31 Dozens Of Earthenware Pots Sit Outside Of An Old Restaurant
Rows of clay jars outside a traditional village restaurant in South Korea. Each one has subtle differences in shape and color. They’ve likely been sitting here for years, quietly weathering with the seasons. And yet most were still in use.
They store a variety of fermented goods such as fermented bean paste and soy sauce.

It’s a really nice place in an old market town, and they even roast their own coffee and make their own chocolate. Only downside is if you’re trying to cut down on sweets, because their cake selection is fantastic.

#86 Yesterday I Payed For Coffee With Bitcoin In Iran
I’m visiting my home country and my family since last week, and yesterday I was having a coffee in a cafe with some friends. While checking out, I saw this sign above the counter that blew my mind. It said that you could pay with Bitcoin, XRP, Doge, TRX, Litcoin, Ethereum, BitcoinCash, Monero, or ETH classic!
I asked if anyone had paid with crypto before? And they said only one. I am not a fan of paying for daily needs with crypto just yet, and I thought El Salvador accepting BTC as a legal tender was too early, but I really needed to try this, so I paid for everyone with BTC, and it was nice.
With the current inflation in Iran, which is INSANE and is estimated to be around 50 to 150% most people are converting their savings to US dollars and now crypto. 1 USD equals to 280000 Iranian Rials today. I hope crypto saves most of us.
