Went to Boston pizza last night with the lil lady and my dad and it cost 127 before tax.

We had to double check and re look over the menu cause we were flattened that a medium pizza with three toppings was 28 fucking dollars... I know they said they were changing there prices but thats ridiculous. We talked to the manager and asked what had gone up and shes said pretty much everything as of jan 1. Thats the last time I eat there for a long time unless someone else is paying....

19$ for burger and fries???
28$ for a medium pizza...lol

Went to a great local burger restaurant a few weeks ago (Gillian’s if anyone is local), not a big place, but more than 15 tables, with some seating 6 people. Shocked to see one server in the whole place on a Wednesday night, as well as one behind the bar, ours was great though, doing it all, nice and quick even though she musta been in her 40s. Anyways the place closed a few days later! Not sure if it was because of the wage hike, but they used to have three waitresses or at the very least two and a barmaid.

Seen it at quite a few places. Less waiters. Using a food runner instead to bring food to all the tables.

Even at a tims in London last night lined up in drive through and inside was only two people working on a busy Saturday night

Think that's rent related, I looked at buying the building last year. Was listed for 400k or so, said rented to F&B client.
