Receipt shows a charge for ordering a drink “on the rocks”
By Zagat
Did we really just get charged $2 for ice? This disturbing new trend in which restaurants/bars display an extra charge on your receipt for having a drink “on the rocks” is one of the tackiest moves in the business. While some may argue that the bartender has to go heavier on the pour for “on the rocks” drinks, it’s not very classy to alert the customer with a separate charge on the receipt. Restaurants – if you MUST charge extra, save yourself some grief and just factor it into the price of the drink.
