The Bad Review

What review do you leave?

The Bad Review

A small family-run restaurant serves you a terrible meal. The owner is warm, apologises, and removes it from the bill. Later, the booking site asks you to leave a public review.

What review do you leave?

Then ask

  • Would your answer change if the restaurant had hundreds of glowing reviews?
  • What if one bad review could threaten the business?
  • Do future customers deserve the truth more than the owners deserve mercy?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
