This business with smartphone ordering and paying is a load of rubbish. I like a comely looking waitress to purr and ask me what I’d like and if I can control myself I stand a fair chance of quenching my thirst.
Went through the airport in New Jersey a few years ago. Not only did the terminal bar have these little QR obscenities glued down on the counters, but all the chairs were bolted to the floor. No idea whether that’s still the case since I’ve never been back.
Andy would be hurting in this town. Of the eight places to eat, only two have alcohol and there is no bar: you have to order from the menu at the table.
Check out the strip for the 2nd December 2021, this is an almost exact copy of today’s strip, it was good reading allfi’s comment of his day, I did leave a new comment on it for @tad1 ;-\
Our local Wendy’s burger joint has a kiosk to order from, the staff walk over to the cash register as soon as they see you walk in. They know no one wants to muck around with it.
I’ve been to places that have a QR code on the table for you to access the menu, l see those and I head back to the car, if I cannot have a waitstaff cater to me I’m gone. I bet that QR code would ask for a tip after you ate but I’ve never hung around long enough to find out.

This happened to me in an up-market pub once. I didn’t understand what they were talking about.

“Hipster Arms”…“vegan cocktails”…a barkeep in a shirt & tie and a goatee….? Andy, don’t you feel out of place?

Vegan cocktails contain no meat, fish, or dairy.
They must be pretty rare.

I’m with Andy on this one. You (or at least I do) go to a restaurant to be waited on.

Andy is obviously in the wrong part of town. I’m be heading back to see Jack, whether he throws me out again or not.

This should be a short stay, Andy will tell him what he wants and they won’t it.

Better find another pub, Andy. Preferably one that isn’t so “with it.”

Reminds me of my last stop at McDonald’s. Used the kiosk, and they still got the order wrong. That’s progress?

“Organic” actually refers to carbon-based compounds.
Gasoline, diesel, rubbing alcohol, acetone, ethylene glycol & others are all organic, but I would strongly advise against drinking any of them!

“Vegan” cocktails? They have cocktails with MEAT in them?
