I don't think wanting a physical menu to look at is unreasonable for any generation.
or spend like 30 minutes making a decent website i swear online menus are the most asinine thing at every restaurant.
i don't even require a menu just give me a list with name, price, and ingredients im good. maybe a touch of heirarchy but like then im good.
I went on a date and both of our phones were dead lol
I don't want to have my device tracked by your cookies in order to eat
Yeah sorry, if I can view the menu from my phone instead of touching a menu that 6000 other people have touched, without having to deal with either the server taking it away or it being in the way on my table, I don't see why I would want or need an actual physical menu
I don't see why I should need to pull up my phone to order food at a restaurant.
I don't think you should "have to". I think physical menus should always be available. But if both are available, I certainly think the digital is superior in every way
Fair enough. Both is better
The option still seems pretty nice to have.
Even a restaurant's legit web site may require cookies or some other thing that not everyone is comfortable with
I see your point, but that seems highly improbable. That a bad actor would be willing and able to successfully create a QR Code that looks enough like the restaurant's QR and that neither the patrons nor the establishment itself would notice. Not only improbable, but the roi for the scammer seems very poor.
I'm with you on this, I live in a country where a digital menu is not a given and I hate it more than people who prefer physical menus seem to hate digital menus. I do agree that both should be available as an option
Your phone is 10x dirty as a toilet seat
You've never seen my phone. And I don't use it as a toilet seat.
Disagree, this is one of those changes that not only is very hyginic but also has a juge impact on reducing the amount of work for staff.
I won't disagree however that they could still have menus available for the instances people don't have a smartphone or are having problems with their smartphone. However, overall the impacts are mostly positive aside from incoviniencing the customer slightly to look at the menu on their phone.
The entire point of going out to eat is customer service. If I didn't want things like this handled for me I would eat at home. "Slightly inconveniencing the customer" is not acceptable.
What's worse is I'm now expected to tip 20% to a person that basically runs my food and fucks off. Id be fine with it if I picked up my food at a window. Why am I tipping someone so much money when all they do is deliver food? No talking, no taking an order, no checking in, not even bringing a bill. I was at a brewery recently with one of those order online and bring it to your table setups. I asked for some ketchup when they brought the food and they told me I had to order it through the website. Not going back.
