Have you ever been tempted to speak your mind at a restaurant? You might want to think twice—unless you’re cool with a “bitching fee” showing up on your receipt.
That’s exactly what happened to one diner who recently shared their surprising experience online. After visiting a local pizzeria, they noticed something unusual on the final bill: a $5 charge labeled “bitching fee.”
According to the post, the mix-up started when the server brought out the wrong beer—already opened. To fix the mistake, the waiter ended up giving both beers to the customer for free. Problem solved… or so they thought.
When it came time to pay, they spotted the unexpected $5 fee tacked onto the tab. Naturally, the internet had thoughts. So did we.
We hit the streets to get real reactions and see if people would actually pay this mysterious fee—or raise hell about it.
Some folks were surprisingly chill:
“I would actually pay it,” one person said, laughing.
Others? Not so much:
“Not cool for a complaining fee,” someone else responded. “I would have walked out,” said another, shaking their head.
So, now we’re asking you—what would you do if a restaurant slapped you with a “bitching fee”? Is it a lighthearted joke or just plain rude?
Sound off in the comments. We’re dying to hear where you stand on this spicy service charge.
