A lot of restaurants do also now, it’s because they don’t want to pay the cc fee for you to use your debt/credit cards. So it’s either you pay the fee if you use your debt/cc or you pay cash and they don’t charge that fee, so it looks kinda like they are giving you a discount. I use cash if I’m by myself (without hubby) when out with friends and tip in cash, that way the waiters can decide whether to claim it on taxes or not. Have to say it is easier to use our debt card to pay for everything but I don’t want to go to the digital crap they are trying to push.
