Pub near me has sign saying no cash, as does restaurant chain I like for breakfast. It's legal although I hate the fake way they say "for your protection" with a vague implication that cash is dirty. It's like you say cash is a business problem for them is the real reason.
Also I am sure that if you got them to pour drinks or bring meals then say "Oh No! Sorry I only got cash" then they would certainly take your cash.
NO --- the real reason?
THE REAL REASON is to keep employees from pocketing cash.

Be interesting to see if they try to do it everywhere.
