the toilet cafe

[Amby 490]

Coffee shop bosses in Vienna have installed loos around the walls of the cafe to help male customers relax.

"The lavatory is one of the last places in the world where men can sit and relax without women or other distractions. We just want our customers to feel at home," said owner Stefan Holz.

The cafe has even been given a new name - 'A quiet place' - to reflect what's on offer to customers.

The ornamental toilets are not functional and the cafe is not a men-only venue - however, it's regulars are virtually all male.

"It's strange but I do actually feel more at ease when I'm sitting in here surrounded by toilets. After all, a man's toilet is his throne," said customer Andreas Reider, 44.

Vienna has more than 1,000 cafes and claims to have introduced the drink to the western world after sacks of coffee beans were left behind by invading Turkish forces after a failed siege of Vienna in 1529.

I saw something similar to that where they used non-functional toilets for chairs at a restaurant somewhere.
