Agreed. My local cafe started saying "we pay our staff well, no tips please" at the same time as putting the price up a little. Then, with nothing else changing, the tip screen starting showing up again. It just makes it awkward. For me, it means the walk I used to take every day to get coffee turns into a walk to grab some groceries or something else instead - side benefit being that my latte art is getting better.
