Reply to comment by LoganSquire in TIL restaurant service charges are taxable? by erudite-ostrich

Blows my mind how few people understand this.

A year ago I got in a fight with hip city veg about their EXTREMELY hidden service fee. Through an email exchange with them, they disclosed that the DONT PAY TAX on the service fee.

Me informing them that was tax fraud likely played a large role in them dropping the fee.

There was a 4% service fee that you’d only know about if you got a physical receipt, or calculated the totals in your head. It didn’t even appear on the computer screen as you order or pay.

EXTREMELY hidden.
