if your froma a small town like i am im sure they will, ive shot in a school and convience store, but it depends what you want really.
if you want to shoot a movie in the middle of a crowded resturant things are not going to work out, and you will just get in thier way. could you be more specific about the scene?

You don't make an offer. If they say they cannot let you shoot for free you
ask, "How much would you charge to allow me to film here?" I'f you can
afford it, pay them, if you can't, tell them how much you CAN afford. If
you cannot come to a price that is good for both of you, you'll have to
try a different location.

I definately agree with certified instigator. Either offer them the free advertisment they will get with you shooting there. If not just find another place. There has to be a place that will let you. It's just about asking around.
