What country? I've never experienced this in any European country I've been to.

Edit: no, once. The McDonald's in the Netherlands on the A16 highway, right after the Belgian border has paid toilets, even for customers. It's a disgrace.

I mentioned below, but in my case it was Netherlands and Germany. I'm seeing now it's not a very widespread practice, I just got unlucky last time I visited.

When I visited Paris and Berlin, there were pay toilets.

I'd rather pay for toilets and have them be clean, than free and dirty.

It seems to be a central Europe issue from my anecdotal experience.

Little Germany or Netherlands experience here. But in Austria, Italy and Switzerland I never encountered a toilet in a bar/restaurant you had to pay for.

Never had problem in Denmark, Austria, Italy, Greece, Cyprus but did find places without restrooms in Germany France and UK.
