#barconsumatori ☕️ Possono obbligarmi a consumare per usare il bagno?

In this short monologue, the speaker explains that under Italy’s consolidated public safety law, any establishment that serves food or drink—such as bars and restaurants—must provide a functional restroom for its customers. While the law mandates the availability of a bathroom, it also permits the venue to require a purchase, a small consumption (e.g., a gum pack or a bottle of water), or any other minimal transaction as a condition for using the facilities. The speaker highlights that some places may allow bathroom use out of courtesy, but the legal baseline is that a paying customer is entitled to a restroom, and the establishment can lawfully tie its use to a consumptive act. He ends by asking the audience whether they were aware of this rule.
