I am not sure this place exists - if they do there is no website.

I like the concept, practically banning phones would be hard. Other commenters are saying there would be no traffic, but actually when this sort of thing has been tried in past businesses have experienced boosts in sales.

No parking would be a bit difficult, but I guess you could put it in a highrise or off of a bike trail, which would be fantastic.

Lack of cars isn't really judgey, they do both pollute and make noise, plus you do end up with safety issues and ugly tar roads. They don't say never drive them, just they aren't going to make it easy for you.

Which in the USA would make things difficult as nearly everything requires a car and so nobody is used to walking so few people do even if they might otherwise do so.

I like the concept - I do agree the no credit card thing is a bit much - if you could design a screen less card reader (led status lights and rotary number displays), that would make I perfect IMO.




I've seen screenless "tap to pay" thingies before, so it is possible. https://www.rogers.com/business/blog/en/tapping-into-the-dem...
