Recently however Yelp has been accessed by employees, visitors, and even inmates of U.S. prisons. From Rikers Island in New York to San Quentin in California and everywhere in between people have been uploading complaints, advice, and sometimes even praise of certain prisons and the conditions therein.
"One time I was arrested in Chicago on a case of mistaken identity. I understand that the police make mistakes and I don't hold that against them. Overall, the jail was pretty miserable," one person wrote of the Cook County Jail in Illinois. "The beds were very uncomfortable and my bunkmate was frequently rude. The only reason that I'm giving it two stars is because of the food; it was great and very reasonably priced. I suggest chicken mole, boeuf bourguignon, or cannelloni ricotta e spinaci."
It would appear that even in the prison system, people seek the finer things in life…
