Taco Bell is closing all of its dining rooms in Oakland, California due to rampant crime and will only offer cashless drive-thru service.
This is an ongoing problem in Oakland. Last month, the city’s only Denny’s restaurant closed its doors after 50 years in business.

This is what happens when community leaders don’t do their job to maintain law and order.
How much more will local voters be willing to put up with?
The Daily Mail reports:
Taco Bell locations in Oakland are forced to CLOSE dining rooms indefinitely and switch to drive-thru service and cashless payments only, amid a spate of robberies and a relentless crime wave
Taco Bell restaurants in Oakland, California, have been forced to suspend indoor dining indefinitely after falling victim to a series of robberies amid an ongoing crime wave in the city, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Four of the five Taco Bell locations in the Bay Area city now have large signs hanging in their windows warning: “DINING ROOM CLOSED.”
The business has been limited to drive-thru service only — a sad new reality for many customers and families hoping to sit down for a quiet meal.
“This is annoying,” Melissa Gilgen, 45, told DailyMail.com on a rainy Tuesday after shouting her order into an intercom, as her frustrated daughter and five-year-old granddaughter sat in the backseat.
“We wanted to come in and eat together,” Gilgen added, walking away with a bag of breakfast crisps.
“Now we’re forced to do a drive-thru because the next Taco Bell is about seven miles away.”
Here is a video report:
What if you don’t have a car?
Taco Bell company policy prohibits pedestrians from the driveway.
So basically, if you can’t afford a car or motorcycle, you can’t afford Taco Bell.

Oakland is essentially allowing itself to be governed by criminals and it will be law abiding people who will suffer.
