Restaurant that still accept Bitcoin.

[SuperBitMan]

I know everyone here still knows the story of a man who used 10,000 Bitcoin to purchase pizza his name is Laszlo Hanyecz and the pizza was bought in Papa John’s store but the thing is Laszlo didn’t buy them directly by himself, what happened is that a user on the forum named Jeremy accepted Laszlo’s offer and then ordered the pizzas from Papa John’s using his own credit card Laszlo then sent Jeremy 10,000 BTC as payment.
A lot of us here may want to do similar thing buy using Bitcoin to purchasing a particular food too, you really don't need someone to help if you know restaurants that accept Bitcoin.

This are some places you can purchase foods with Bitcoin.

1. Bhukkad Café in Dubai.

2. Steak ’n Shake in USA.

3. Panarottis Pizza Pasta in South Africa

Add to the list if you know anyone.

The story of Laszlo buying that pizza has become legendary and the funny thing is that he didn't even buy the pizza himself, but Jeremy ordered it with his card and Laszlo sent him 10,000 bitcoins. It seems incredible now, but back then bitcoin was almost worthless. Today of course there's no need to order it through someone, because many restaurants accept bitcoin directly. In places like Dubai, America, and South Africa, there are several cafes and pizza shops that accept crypto payments.

I found some more restaurants, and I've listed some of them below.

1. PubKey New York City

• This bar & restaurant in Greenwich Village markets itself as a “bitcoin‐friendly bar”.
  
• Multiple reports mention they accept Bitcoin (and other crypto) for payment at the bar.
• Tip: Make sure to ask at checkout “I’d like to pay with Bitcoin” and verify which wallet/payment method they accept.
• Vibe: Very crypto themed, casual dive bar atmosphere + event space, good if you want something fun and off beat.

2. Chipotle Mexican Grill (United States)

• Chipotle partnered with payments provider Flexa to accept crypto payments (including Bitcoin) at U.S. locations.
• Tip: Because it uses a third-party app for crypto checkout, make sure your wallet/app is supported before visiting.

3. The Catch (Berlin),  Berlin, Germany

• Why it qualifies: According to a “crypto spending in Germany” guide, The Catch in Berlin (Charlottenburg) accepts Bitcoin and other digital currencies via a crypto payment terminal.
• Bonus: If you’re in Berlin and want a smaller venue with crypto payment support, this might be a good option.

I love to see some of them in my country Nigeria, unfortunately,  those that will accept will not make it public because of our government action against Binance, all other exchange IP addresses that are banned in my country and their crackdown on known cryptocurrency users. Despite these challenges, Bitcoin is still spreading like wildfire so there should be many shops accepting in low key.

Located in the Aldea Zama neighborhood of Tulum, Safari Comedor serves up a mix of creative Mexican cuisine in a stylish jungle‑setting, and it is listed as a venue that accepts cryptocurrency payments — making it a strong pick for your “restaurants that still accept Bitcoin” project.

What to check / limitations

. Because it’s in Mexico’s tourist‑area, the exchange rate and currency conversion may apply: your BTC may be converted to Mexican pesos by the venue or payment processor.

4. Burger King — Bitcoin Payment Status

Burger King is one of the global fast‑food chains that does have locations where you can pay with Bitcoin — though it depends heavily on country and branch.

. More recently, reports say that Burger King in Paris, the Netherlands, Germany and Venezuela are accepting Bitcoin or a broad range of crypto payments as of 2025.
. This means in certain locations you may walk in, order your Whopper and pay with Bitcoin — depending on the country and store setup.

 What to Check / Limitations
. The acceptance is not universal globally. Many Burger King locations do not list Bitcoin as a payment method.
. If you want to pay with Bitcoin, always call ahead:
.The success of payment depends on store‑level infrastructure, local regulation and whether the location is included in the crypto program.

Despite these challenges, Bitcoin is still spreading like wildfire so there should be many shops accepting in low key.

The were probably not interested in the first place, before the binance and Nigeria government had their issues no restaurant I know of in Nigeria showed any interest in adding Bitcoin to their payment system. And now I think the heat about the binance problem has dropped but I don't think any restaurant has already shown that they want Bitcoin in their payment system.
For now I don't think the government is only to blame, we need to have more franchises in Nigeria show more interest in Bitcoin.

I have done research about those restaurants in Nigeria that accept Bitcoin as a means of payment but I have not seen anyone but I believe they do accept secretly, however there are some online store that delivers food when you order it and they accept Bitcoin.
Kwikpik Food, Grocery & Bills they deliver food when you order from them, and they operate across Nigeria, when you want to order food from them you need to download there Kwikpik app and then order from there.
https://apps.apple.com/ng/app/kwikpik-food-grocery-bills/id6447007329
They have a built in non custodial crypto wallet where you can hold, send, receive and swap major coins including Bitcoin.
But we have school and church that publicly accept Bitcoin here in Nigeria.

Add to the list if you know anyone.

Nice points, Bitcoin is gradually making it way into daily transactions again, just like in the story of Laszlo. Making use of it for food or any small purchase would give it real utility more than just holding it as an investment.
To add to the list you made, others include:

1. Subway
2. Some selected outlets of Burger King Venezuela and Germany
3. The hotel called Old Fitzroy in Sydney, Australia
4. Room 77in Berlin this is said to be one of the first restaurants to ever accept Bitcoin.

Though it isn't common all over the place, yet adoption continues to grow, mostly through payment processors such as BitPay and OpenNode making it easier for restaurants to take crypto.

I bet no one would want to repeat the same of Laszlo using such huge amount of bitcoin for the specific value of pizza now. It was also affordable for Laszlo to do that transaction because, then bitcoin has not gained real world trading value and was evaluated below half cent $ which made a historical transaction with bitcoin.
It is either no more news that bitcoin can be used to pay for goods and services by these days as it has majorly been adopted and had not only been sighted as alternative means to make payments but both also asset values and resources.

So it will be irrelevant referencing Laszlo's to the above resorts that accepts bitcoins for payments. Maybe it would just do better if suggesting them as resorts that accepts bitcoins just for those who prefers to pay for their foods with bitcoin since bitcoin has not been generally accepted for payments services yet.
That of Laszlo with the excessive spending will be no more as bitcoin has become a global treasure.

[HelliumZ]

There is no such facility in my country, especially restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream shops, etc. It is not possible to get any such facility here that will allow them to start their businesses as Bitcoin payments. Since our Bitcoin is considered a government-prohibited currency, if any organization wants to do business with this prohibited currency, it will face various legal troubles. If Bitcoin were viewed positively in our country like other countries, then perhaps Bitcoin would be accepted as payment in various coffee shops, ice cream shops, restaurants, hotels, and residential areas.

[Potato Chips]

Speaking of, it would be nice if yelp.com could expand their ACCEPT CRYPTOCURRENCY filter into at least major cryptocurrencies like bitcoin for instance.



I found multiple restaurants in the US that has the accept cryptocurrency tag. Though we would have to ring/write to them first to know exactly which crypto they accept. I do believe there are at least some that accepts bitcoin. 

Perhaps, if someone is interested, they could look into yelp and this particular filter.

[Wiwo]

Everywhere seems empty is there no users around because i can barely see anyone around the restaurants,  is it that government regulations is making bitcoin users to avoid those shops that accepts bitcoin or othwr crypto coins for payment.

I was expecting to see some level of crowd around the facility since is a rear occasions to see restaurants that accepts cryptocurrency payments.

I havent seen any of such shops that openly accept cryptocurrency for payments here in my country

[zabzob]

In the USA, and possibly in other countries, you can pay with bitcoin at any restaurant that accepts Doordash or Uber Eats. Just buy gift cards with bitcoin on a site like bitrefill.com, then spend them at the restaurant of your choice.

[348Judah]

So interesting that from this thread, we can have a number of countries and restaurants that accepts bitcoin as payment currency, i also wish the thread to remain for long, so that it could be often updated as time goes, bitcoin is gaining more ground already and taking over the financial system, yet some are not seeing this, until then, when we are left with no other choice than to use it and depend on it, which some could have been able to identify on how they have missed on several opportunities in it.

[ultrloa]

There's similar thread like this created by @d5000 here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5548042.0

Although yours is restaurants, but you can see in his thread that every places that accept BTC has been discussed in his thread.

Maybe people can also see some interesting places which accepts BTC as payment especially if they try to see those merchants and places posted in his thread. Great to see that lots of merchant accepting Bitcoin and provably there would be more as adoption rate continuous to grow.

I agree, and even if it's there, as you said - we would need to double check the info, I would do that anyways because the info on the net is usually outdated or there are updates or details to it (which coins are accepted or not, and so on).

[Floxynice]

One thing I love about this forum is that we get to learn everyday. All through my days since I got to know about the man who bought pizzas with 10,000BTC, I have always thought that he walked into the restaurant and offered to give them 10,000BTC for pizza, now I know better how everything played out.

I don't know if there are restaurants in my country that accept bitcoin payments. If there is any, then it should be that the owner of the restaurant is a bitcoin enthusiast that accepts p2p payments from those who request for it. Aside this, bitcoin payments are not official in my country.

Rather than relying on information from newspapers like Cointelegraph, people can use helpful websites for where to spend bitcoins proactively.

As long as cryptocurrency is not banned in these countries where the restaurants are located, the government cannot stop people from eating from them. My guess is the snapshots were probably taken early in the morning when they're opening up for the day. Starbucks had few persons. Though, I can't really tell if they're employees or customers.

And they would anyway push for traditional ways of paying up.. But oh well.
