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.
EDIT: Look what I found this morning, lol https://www.today.com/food/restaurants/buffalo-wild-wings-takeout-fee-backlash-complaint-rcna90228
I’m guessing because those have fees and the restaurants increase their prices to compemsate for that.
That’s exactly why for me. I’m not lazy enough (and I have good transportation) to drive and pick up food if I’m doing takeout instead of getting stuff delivered and paying fees and tips on top .
