Welcome to Friendly Like Me. Thank you for being here!

At Friendly, accessibility is our thing.  And our hope...is that each time you discover a place with suitable accommodations you say so in FLM, making a quick mark to pay it forward.  With every review, you kindly signal to the person traveling behind you, “This is a friendly place.”  

  • Get started by creating your account and be sure to select your preferences.
  • Find the places you already know and rate them for accessibility.  With each rating, you tell others like you, "This place is a good fit" or "Find a different place."  You're also helping to support your favorite places that make fit and accessibility a priority.
  • Encourage any business owners you know to claim their listing on Friendly Like Me.
  • Take us with you when you go out--and get into Friendly review mode!  Together with others like you, we'll rate them all!

You're ready to get out there and start making an accessible world a reality.  Please let us know how we can help you.
