Would you return to a restaurant after seeing a roach even if they comped your meal?

Question

Please include age and dining frequency in answer. I need it for a report. Thanks

Answer 1

No... I'd like to say that I'd give them the benefit of the doubt but roaches just really make me sick and that would be all I would be able to think of.  I am 28 and eat out about once a week.

Answer 2

No, I wouldn't return. A roach anywhere in a restaurant just screams "uncleanliness", so it would be a safety issue in addition to an aesthetic one. I'm 38 years old, and I often go to places like Subway.

Answer 3

I live in Greece - I've seen LOADS in tavernas - horrible but that's life - I did freak a bit when a rat (from outside) ran past my table and under a fridge - Other customers laughed - I think I had a panic attack - especially when the owner tried to kill it with a broom in front of me!  Also sat out side under a fig tree and bits of figs dropped on our table - looked up and loads of colourful rats on the branches - the owner saw me look up and go pale - he pleaded with me to not make a fuss (with his eyes)  - He slowly came over and moved us -

So as you can see a few cockroaches are nothing!

Age 40 (but look younger - I kid you not!)

we dine out once/twice a week in winter and about 4+ times a week in summer.

Answer 4

No!  57  How often/?  I eat out quite often... at different restaurants.................

Answer 5

No because the image of that roach will stay in my mind thus causing me to lose my appetite. My age is 26 and I dine out at least once per week.

Answer 6

No way. If I see a roach in the dining room then there are lots of roaches in the kitchen.

I am 35 and dine out on a regular basis. I have seen a roach at Golden Corral once. Never went back there.

Answer 7

Heck No, i had a worm in my food once, from shoney and never went back again....

Answer 8

Age 18, work as a waitress and eat out about once a week.

If I was a regular and this was the first time this happened, then yes I would return.

If it was my first impression, then I'm not likely to return.

However if I found a roach in my food...its over and done with, never again.

Answer 9

yes.

roaches are inevitable.

age over 20

frequency twice a week

Answer 10

Probably.... it happens....unless the place was infested...

Answer 11

it depends because roachs almost always find a way to get in some where and you see raoches every where you go almost

Answer 12

I would not. Let me say that I have worked in a dozen or more restaurants. Not even the ones with a 100 grade were raoch free. But once I seen one, I am done eating there. I am 40, God help me, and I eat out 3 times a week.

Answer 13

NO. i hate hate hate bugs and i do not want creepy crawlies running around my feet while i am trying to enjoy my meal. *shudder*

i am 25, and i eat out maybe 3 to 4 times a week.

Answer 14

No. Even if they cleaned up their act, I would always be reminded of it whenever I went there in the future.

Answer 15

h**l no i would cuz thats just gross

Answer 16

I'm 29...& try to go out 1x per week.. although I LOATHE roaches.. and I mean LOATHE... more than anyone.. I would return.  When you go out to eat, theyre will always be roaches where there is food and water. Since restraunts clean their floors usually every night, there is ample amount of water, and flood flung around from hurrying to get it out to customers in a timely fashion. If they were so kind to comp your meal, give them another chance.  90% of Restraunts have roaches.

Answer 17

Probably not

Answer 18

Every restaurant, bakery, supermarket, etc. has roaches. You just don;t see them.

So h**l yes I would.

I'm 27, and eat out about once a week.

Answer 19

Yes. Roaches happen. I have seen them in my home before and taken action to get rid of them. I still eat from my kitchen. Why should someplace else be any different?

I am 29 and dine out maybe once a month.
