Today I had the priviledge to become the first customer to pay in Steem @metropolis bar.
The bar is now reopened at the new location and open for business, we had a great chat about cryptocurrencies and plans for the bar this summer while we had a few beers. Read more about the Metropolis bar
Here we are myself and Toby Price sharing a few beers
3x beers : 6€ we rounded it up to 60 steem and all the other customers were eager to see how I paid him with my phone and to hear more about Steemit.
Most of them witnessing a peer to peer payment in the form of cryptocurrency for the very first time.
I spent an hour lecturing them afterwards, its awesome to have people interested in what I love most.
Check out my map of places to pay with Steem here in Ca'n Picafort, Mallorca

I really look forward to having some steemians visit here and be able to show you around and spend some Steem !!
Come one come all pay with Steem open for business 7 days a week.
Welcome @metropolisbar :-)
Props on adopting steem as a payment method in your establishment, I'd gladly go for a pint if I wasn't so damned far away.
where is this bar?
Ca'n Picafort, Mallorca a bit far but worth a visit!
Followed! @mallorcaman has been a good friend to me on here helping me!!
So this is step one in becoming a Bard. Lol. Getting paid in drinks for telling stories. Love it.
lol I feel like a bitcoin bard :)
Paying in steem is very cool ! that sounds incredible ..
And its so much fun! :) @helene thanks for stopping by
Respect from marketing outpost Amsterdam! Great!
it is one of the very good news, a bar paying with steem. thanks for split @mallorcaman
this is amazingly fantastic!!
Feels great,also I forgot to mention this week I am also paying for the first time at trotters bar so that will complete the 3 venues for paying with steem!!
how did all these bars agree to accept steem? Are they all on here now?
Yes! Victory! Chugga, Chugga... Full Steem Ahead!
resteem
Thanks @justinashby :)
That's really great! Seems like there's a wider acceptance of cryptocurrencies in Europe than currently here in the US...
I thought it would be the other way around. Its not easy getting people onto crypto here, most people have a very dificult time understanding what it is and that it is actually working.
This is great, I love it when places help promote crypto and hearing about steem being adopted as payment method at a bar is pretty darn cool! Props on this post!
Thanks @abso I hope to inspire others to follow in my footsteps
It's cool that it's getting accepted, and I wish it was more widely accepted. Though I understand considering the current situation of Steem coin, it doesn't make much sense from a business point of view to accept it. I think the founders of steem should've focused more on promotion.
Yes the price is a big letdown right now. But Steemit is working fine now its just a matter of time before the money starts to pour in again at 9-10 cents a Steem it sure feels like a bargain right now
Cheers Mate!!!

Great job toby its very good to see that you are taking steem for payment
Good work @mallorcaman.
wish you were here @lichtblick
Falls ich mal nach Mallorca komme, melde ich mich auf jeden Fall :-)
Das ware super! Ich freue mich sehr ;)
Now that is recruitment!
Thanks @tfeldman Its my daily task :)
This is the best way to get people on board!
Does @metropolisbar brew their own beer?
No it does not, its not common practice here in Mallorca to brew homemade.
'tis a pity. I brew for a pub in London, and I am looking for other brew pubs to visit this summer. Perhaps I'll have to stop in regardless. If only for the novelty of paying in steem!! (oh, and visiting Mallorca of course, such a beautiful island)
That would be very cool if you came, make sure to let me know in advance
That is awesome
I love your posts so much.
Look at the 4 huge key pieces of info here by you:
Followed the bar on here now also!!
This is awesome! Shame it's too late to up vote
