Apparently many San Franciscans enjoy getting smashed out of their minds at brunch.

: “Dear all mimosa lovers, Please drink responsibly and know your limits. A $50 cleaning fees will automatically include in your tap when you throw up in our public areas. Thank you so much for understanding.”

I usually complain about the rise of prices. But $50 to vomit on a table and force another human being to clean your nasty ass biohazard is so stupidly low.

Yeah, and I'm sure the person forced to clean it won't get any extra pay from that fine. Essential, yet treated like fucking garbage.

Pretty sure they'll be happy enough with less vomit

Wasn’t there an article recently about how fines are fees?

Is that what’s going on? I assumed they were puking in toilets.

“dealing with patrons who lose their brunch is a reality for Bay Area restaurants offering the popular perk of bottomless mimosas.” 🤣

Does California not have laws that take away liquor licenses for over serving?

Usually liquor licenses only get taken away due to constant problems with drunk driving, underage drinking, or rape. While vomiting indicates over serving, it is hard for bartenders to know if a patron is going to vomit or not and the typical action is to cut off alcohol to a patron that vomited.

However, I would agree that all you can drink is a recipe for over serving people.

Mimosas make me sick way before they make me drunk. One is fine. But all that sugary orange juice mixed with carbonated cheap white wine really doesn’t sit well after 3 or 4. And I’m not even close to drunk at that point.
