Precise

Friendly reviews ask people to measure the presence of important amenities with “yes or no.” This means you can find places specifically rated for the amenities you need, as well as those that are not suitable for you.

The accommodations shown in this capture are "accessible bathroom", marked yes. "staff is accommodating" marked no. Booths have movable tables, marked, "not sure" and "quiet enough for conversation", left blank.

Know Before You Go

Ratings of a business’ accommodations are created by people with a viewpoint like yours who understand what it takes to measure accessibility, comfort, and fit.

Be in your best life

When accessible places are easier to find, more people can take part. Friendly Like Me believes that when people with access needs are empowered with accessibility information they will participate more - enabling each person to live their best, happiest, and healthiest life - today and every day.
