I use it every day on the London Underground. Wave my phone near the barrier and it opens.
I used it most days on holiday in Italy, whether paying for groceries or at restaurants.
There are only two things which stop me using it more often - there's a limit of £30(?) for contactless transactions, and one of my credit cards isn't supported.
It’s a little unclear, but I seem to remember reading places that accept “Apple Pay” rather than just general NFC are supposed to be exempt from the limit (different back ends), but it’s super-unclear when you can do this so always easier to assume you can’t than look like an idiot.
Well, except that quite a few shops with Apple Pay specifically, offer essentially unlimited. I bought a couple of hundred quids worth of food at Waitrose using my phone when I;d left my wallet at home
