I got this fun fee after trying to order takeout from Buffalo Wild Wings (yes I’m naming and shaming). How exactly does adding a dollar help you operate takeout? It’s literally less work than waiting on a table. This is nothing more than a shameful cash grab to pad profits.
I cancelled my order and got local street tacos instead.
It’s not as if they’re paying their waitstaff normal minimum wage in most states; tipped employees can be paid less if the tips make up for it.
You’re correct, and that’s another beef I have with the whole industry.
