      At first I though “surely this is about the US”, but no, even in the US at least some states require public bathrooms in all coffee shops, cafe, restaurants etc. Some states have exceptions depending on the size of the establishment and some states do not have this regulation at all.

      I also just checked Dutch and some other countries’ laws. Public bathrooms are required for new establishments with no exceptions. I have not found a EU-wide regulation though.

        Vancouver, B.C. Canada Checking in, bathrooms are only required if you have indoor seating, so a lot of places didnt reinstall their tables post pandemic, and thus kept their washrooms closed
