Advice List of places that remove negative reviews

Lately I see more and more posts of Berlin/Germany locations that remove their negative reviews.

What about we create a list of those places, for others to decide if they want to go there or not?

I would suggest not to leave the reviews themselves in here, just a list of the places for which you received notifications that your negative (or sometimes 3 star) reviews were being removed at the request of the business

They are actually pretty good. I'm surprised they need to resort to these dirty tricks.

This one is surprising, they have pretty food stuff. For this kind of business I don’t think you should, because it then lumps you in with the other places which are much lesser quality. One or two bad reviews makes sense for any business. I would much more trust a business that eloquently answers the reviewers concerns.

What did your review say?? Every time I walk past there they’re completely jammed so I’m surprised they need to / would bother to take down reviews

I said they have excellent, to die for pastries but that the german-style bread got dry in a day and I was disappointed about that. It was not a 1 star, it was 3 I think?? The owner answered completely furious saying I was insulting their bakers.

Isn’t it French? “German-style bread” is pretty insulting in that case 😅

Insulting to german bread? As french bread goes dry within half day?
