Now that the Christmas hubbub has ebbed, it is time to get back to more Stroller Friendly reviews! This time, my random selection was a strange one...
Stain Internet Cafe, at 609 Yates st, is oddly listed as a restaurant/cafe on Google. Weird.
No, that is not a fake name. In case you were wondering. To add to the ick-factor, all the windows are blacked out from the outside... what exactly is going on in there?
But hey, my random selection selected it, so I was gonna try it out! Who knows, maybe it might be a new favourite haunt...?
Access: Entering the door was not super-easy due to a slight incline and a narrow doorway. Still, though, entering was not more difficult than a hundred other doors I've already dealt with; I was able to enter without making a spectacle of myself. Which is why I was surprised by...
...EVERYONE IN THE ESTABLISHMENT turning away from their computers to simultaneously stare at me. It was like stumbling into a horror movie. Picture a dark, dark room with stale, smelly air containing an all-male clientele, their faces lit only by their computer monitors, silently and intently peering at newcomers to their domain.
EEEEEEEEEEK!!! I couldn't get outta there fast enough.
So yeah, the moral of the story is that Stain Internet Cafe is decidedly NOT baby friendly!
Stroller Friendly FAIL!
