- adammunich 9y agoAfter debts incurred, yes.
- Sohcahtoa82 9y agoAt the point of sale, no. For a debt, yes. If you go to a store or a fast-food restaurant where you pay before being able to take the goods, then they can legally refuse to accept cash. But at a full service restaurant, once your food has been delivered to you and you have eaten it, your bill to the restaurant is considered a debt. They legally MUST take cash in this case.
