30 Times People Spotted Exciting Creativity In Bars And Restaurants And Just Had To Share
Even more than the obvious, practical purpose of being watered and fed, we go to bars and restaurants for the atmosphere. A place could have the finest cuisine and the tastiest beers in the world, but if it doesn't have any soul, any feeling, are you truly going to enjoy the experience?
Probably not. That's why when we do find a joint with a ton of character, we like to celebrate it. This list of bars and restaurants, compiled by Bored Panda, comes from customers that just had to share the funny, kooky and unique things that they've encountered on a night out - these spots go the extra mile to make sure their visitors get a truly memorable experience!
Scroll down below to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

What a way to encourage people to do good things. If positive behaviour like this is reinforced more people would be willing to do positive things. if all you are is yelled at for being bad and ignored for being good that isn't really encourage you to do anything good does it? People do the right thing (usually) because its the right thing but being thanked makes it better
WOW! What an amazing letter! I don't drink, but would definitely go in for lunch. Who knows how many tragedies this averted!
I don't think I get it, sorry.. Is this letter left at the guests car? Who gets it and how..? Is it meant for those who choose to stay at the hotel/guesthouse connected to the bar, instead of driving home (maybe drunk)? No disrespect intended, I'm just plainly confused. I'm a non English native, maybe I'm just missing vocabulary?
It's been left on the windscreen on a car that was left over night in the car park of a bar/ restaurant, because the driver had had too much to drink to safely and legally drive home; so they got a taxi/ walked/ bus home and will collect the car the next morning when sober. The owners of the venue left this on the persons car windscreen to thank them for being responsible and not drink driving, and rewarding them for doing so. By thanking and giving an incentive for doing this and not drink driving it should and hopefully does make more people think "I'm not going to risk driving drunk" and leaving their car over night and collecting the next day.

That’s so delightful to see - all bars should do this ❤️ This saves lives ❤️
Can all bars and resto implement that if you're too drunk and have a car you can instead leave it there and rest assure that the car is fine under their watch.
The idea is really cool, but I'm afraid that in Poland if people would notice it, they would leave their cars all the time only to get free stuff =/
Last time I left my car in a parking lot over night a group of gay homeless men called dirty mike and the boys broke in and made it their F shack
It wasn't sent through mail, I believe it was left on the windshield of the car

So how to create that elusive atmosphere? With thanks to culinary blog Restaurant Tallent, here are some basic concepts to keep in mind:
Restaurant concepts: The restaurants with concepts attract people. If you have a particular cuisine, then you can design the restaurant with the idea of that country or culture. For example, if the restaurant is Chinese then you can create the restaurant with things that will make the customers feel like they are in China. You can also add a story on how the restaurant was founded and place artwork and pictures of the history of the restaurants.
Cleanliness: Who would prefer anything which is not clean? People can get very cautious when they eat out. If your restaurant is not clean, then there are chances you may never see that customer again. Make sure to change the linen and have clean dishes.

That's how things work in EU, Definitely, in Italy it works this way. Tips are given (not every time, not in all places) in appreciation of an outstanding service, they are not supposed to be the employees' wage.
Lighting: The lighting should not be too bright that it blinds your customers and also not so dim that they are not able to look at what they eat. Again depending on the clients and the situations you must alter the lighting.
Music: Depending on the situation you can choose the genre of music. Music can be very pleasing to hear while eating. You can prefer light jazz or pop music to have a peaceful setting. You can also set your music based on your cuisine.

Menu Design: Many may not think much about the menu card, but the menu card can attract and define the ambiance of the restaurant. Take time to create the menu card in such a way that each meal has a description of what the meal is. You can also add pictures so that the customers will know better about the food they are ordering.
Dishes, silver ware, and linens: Choose your dishes and silverware in such a way that it matches with your restaurant. Always have clean washed linens and make sure that in any situation you do not serve your customers with dirty dishes.
Pretty basic stuff, but very important nonetheless! All that's left to do now is add your own personal touch!

Yay I'm 7 months sober from being a messed up crazy alcoholic!! :) also these posts were good.
I saw a sign in front of a bar on 5th Ave in NYC. It said, "When you think about it, alcohol is a solution."
As sad as it is, a great number of people have no respect for Donald Trump, he is possibly the worst example of a president in history, many of us remain stunned, that he was elected, I am Canadian, but unfortunately, here we also have people in power, that should not be, it's in the news for all to see !!!
These were very interesting, fun to read of the creativity, Please help me to understand,the big need to use PROFANITY, I do use at times, but do think it's ugly for women to use, I am sure there are some words in the dictionary, that could get your message across, too many young kids with a foul mouth,I don't blame them as they hear it everywhere, at home and the streets, sorry, I don't see the need, just my opinion !!!
Awesome, even though many in the 'middle' didn't load for me, smh.
