Ah convenience fees. I love paying more money for causing less work. Ticket master, oh these digital tickets that will be distributed immediately will have an extra $14 fee... Per ticket!

You voted with your wallet. That's how capitalism is supposed to work.

It’s literally less work than waiting on a table.

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.

“Yes I’m naming and shaming”

God i love not being on Reddit

McDonalds is especially egregious recently. Time was you could get a set for ¥500 (about 5 dollars) Then suddenly all the menu items went up to ¥700 - ¥900. That starts to get very very close to the alternatives which are much better. The only competitive edge they had was price really.

I grabbed a single burger at Wendy's last weekend and it was $6.50. That was my last trip to Wendy's....I expected half that!

Tiping culture has gotten wildly out of hand

I haven't ordered from BWW in a few years but that is shameful what some of these corporations will add in "fees" to see how much they can nickel and dime their consumer.

I had plenty of sympathy for restaurants when the pandemic first hit. Extra fees? Yeah, I get it, and I'll throw in an extra tip for the workers who are braving the place so that my fat ass can get some delicious food. The problem is that they haven't dialed back the fees/tipping requests. If anything, they've gotten much worse.

I'd bet all the cash in my wallet that the tacos were significantly better than anything from Buffalo Wild Wings.

If you are sitting in the restaurant, you are probably paying for some ridiculously overprized drinks as well.

Maybe compare it to ordering the same stuff but picking it up yourself.

This may be imposed by the take out provider. Some states/municipalities also tack on extra fees

Cost of takeout bags, containers, IT, all that jazz, the company believes it should be able to pass on to the customer without raising it's menu prices. I don't know it's a classic "cash grab" so much as a business attempting to recoup as much as it can from a sale. Last time I checked BFF wasn't doing all that great. But in the end, I agree completely with you in that these Fees are so fucking annoying, one after another, never ending.

I don't know if this is the case everywhere, but here a lot of chains are switching to doordash partnerships, which is just gross. At this point I'll stop ordering delivery/takeout from any chain that does this because I'm just that disgusted by Doordash and Uber.

On the bright side, if you're in a city, usually there are more than enough delivery co-ops or in-house delivery services available that it's not too painful to ditch delivery apps.

Street tacos are going to be better anyways. As good as bww might be, I'll take a truck with a passionate team any day.

Maybe the owner is taking the tips from the servers, and thia is to "compensate" that
