I've seen this service charge bullshit in Chicago as well, but at restaurants. 3% and 5% "service charges" with no explanation other than "we'll remove it if you want." It's not a tip, the waitstaff almost never knows what it is or where the money goes, only that it got added post-COVID and 99% of people don't even notice, and half the people that notice just pay it.
- OneLeggedCat 4y agoI really, really wish people would leave negative reviews at Yelp and Google and everywhere else when they see these 3% "service charges" that were never disclosed before I walked in. I will never knowingly choose to eat at a restaurant that does that kind of thing.
- rascul 4y ago> it got added post-COVID I remember being confused about paying both a service charge and a tip around 2002 or so in Maryland.
