Roam Burger is located at 1785 Union Street (between Octavia and Gough) San Francisco, CA 94123. This atmosphere of Roam is exactly what I would want my restaurant/ bar to look like (if I had one). This ROAM has very warm tan walls which accented well with the bright, cherry red, bar stools which sit under the large wooden bar! The atmosphere at Roam creates to perfect combination of a bar/ family restaurant.
The loo at Roam is as classic as the cuisine and the rest of the restaurant's atmosphere. The first thing to note about the bathroom at Roam is that they have two unisex bathrooms which I find to be a huge plus! The equality and consistency of both the male/ female restroom is always impressive. Having unisex bathrooms allows for traffic to flow easily between both the male and female lines. One of the watersheds is also handicap accessible!
As soon as you step into this spacious bathroom you first recognize how wonderfully clean it is kept! The beauty of this bathroom is held in its simplicity and elegance. If the bathroom were a rectangle, the toilet would be on the back, left, small wall. Directly across from the toilet on the on the parallel wall rests the sink on a dark granite counter that spans the entire width of the loo. The mirror is simple and large, this compliments the centered sink very well. The door to this spacious private/ public room is on the right of the longer sides.
Along the perimeter of the walls are two tile boarders midway down the wall that stand out from the rest of the white tiles. One of the boarders is an alternation of blue and green tiles which create a similar spiral effect one would find on a candy-cane, while the other boarder is a simple green strip. These boarders help continue Roams theme of a warm, elegant feeling. The classiness of the tiles is replicated with the same light green color found on the accent wall just behind the mirror.
Roam has has struck the chord of the type of restroom I would like to find in all restaurants. It is simple, elegant, private, and most importantly clean! The addition of having a hand dryer (saving paper waste) helps keep Roam environmentally responsible. Therefore, I award Artisan Roam Burger a 9.5 out of 10!
In addition to having a terrific bathroom, the burgers at ROAM are absolutely spectacular. After I finished my first burger, I immediately order a second. Usually, I don't enjoy indulging myself with heavy foods, but ordering two burgers is a must. In fact, I could have ordered a third but thought it would best to use it as an excuse to one day return the Artisan.
This is truly a San Francisco treat!

ReplyDeleteYou offer an interesting take on the unisex bathroom. I suspect you might change your tune if it were mutli-stall and allowed for the possibility of relieving one's self next to a chick. I like the brutal honesty of the big mirror and bright fluorescent lights. It screams, "This is you, deal with it", which is the sobering message I need after clearing room for my second burger. Another classic review from the best bathroom inspector in the game. You've been pretty generous so far. When are you going to start slinging some muk and letting me know in which restaurants I should just hold it?
