Yes, the European/Canadian way to do credit cards at a restaurant is nice. The card never leaves your posession. I wish that would get adopted here, but restaurants will resist having to buy the handheld devices. I like restaurants where you get the bill at the table but pay at a desk near the front door, avoiding the problem of handing your card to the waiter.
- drdec 6y agoMany "family" restaurants in the in my area of the US have tablets at the table which allows you to pay your bill when you are ready to leave with a credit/debit card with no interaction with the server required. Family restaurant means a chain like Applebees for those unfamiliar with the term. The tablets are also a revenue-generating device as you can play games on them for a fee. They also have surveys so you can give feedback on the service, this has become somewhat controversial (see https://www.eater.com/2018/6/22/17492528/tablets-restaurants-surveys-score-servers https://www.eater.com/2018/6/22/17492528/tablets-restaurants...).
