Why the reviews here are worth reading

Every review says whether we saw the visit. Nobody is paid or rewarded for writing one. And no venue can pay for a higher place anywhere on CyprusBites, which is checked by the code every time a release is built.

  1. Look for the proof mark beside a review
  2. Read Was there as the strongest, Checked in as the weakest
  3. Open the Trust page for the six promises in full

Four things hold, and they are not politeness, they are how the thing is built.

No venue can pay for a place. Venues pay us for tools, never for position. When friends decide together with Gather, the pick is made on group fit and the part that chooses cannot read whether a venue pays us at all.

Every review shows whether we saw the visit. A table that ordered and paid, a takeaway the venue handed over, or a booking the venue scanned reads Was there. A party the venue confirmed reads Verified party. A visit recorded only from a phone reads Checked in. No record at all gets no mark.

Nobody is paid to review. No Bites, no prizes, no discounts, ever.

A quote stays sealed. Ask several venues for a party or a stay price and each one answers without seeing the others.

What it looks like Was there means a table that ordered and paid, a takeaway handed over, or a booking the venue scanned at the door. Checked in means a phone said so, which can be fooled.
Worth knowing Sort your reading by the proof mark rather than by the star count, because an arrival-proven three is worth more than an unproven five.
