I don't return to restaurants that pull this bullshit. Raise your menu prices to provide a living wage or take a hit to your profits.

Or, you know maybe the owner could live without a 5th cottage possibly?? naaaaaaa

That would be the 'take a hit to profits.' Yeah, I don't expect that either. What's annoying is that it is always the very profitable douche bag restaurants that do this. Most restaurants struggle to make ends meat.

That's literally what they did and you just posted this comment flipping shit because they had the audacity to tell you it was going to the workers.

even in countries that actually pay their staff right, there's no way those base prices don't cover the cost of food, staff and overheads.

then they have the gall to charge a "service charge" to pay the staff.

THEN they have the gall to imply you still need to tip

fuck that to hell

That's not implying anything that's just listing the amount that any given percentage would be if you want to tip the waiter specifically, you might notice that all the percentages are below what's seen as the base for a good tip, save the 15% which is just at it depending on where you're eating at.

The service charge is for the pool for all the staff while the tip on this one is actually a good service reward since they adjusted price to facilitate a better wage, like they literally said at the bottom of the stub.

absolute crazy bullshit. don't stand for that. restaurant price here what you see is what you pay. no stupid surcharges and no stupid tipping. fuck all that

Literally you're being amgy that they told you money was going to the workers

spoiler: it's not

join the first world and just pay them properly without all your fancy extra charges
