Last two cold brews I’ve bought, I was told that they cannot give me a straw unless or until I ask for one.
CA.
$800? Why stop there. Summarily execute the restaurant owner, his family, and burn down the restaurant. (Thats sarc for all you humor challenged libs who might read this)
Easy answer-— and completely eliminates the ownership of any wrongdoing. Just put on every menu, every advert-— “Ask about BYOS, for special prices”. Never in print— requires people ask, as customers.
Bring your own straws, for a 10 % discount on all beverages that would require a straw- even a sipping straw.
Simple— and does not break the law by “providing” plastic straws. Can’t fine the customers for bringing their own— they just can’t bring the booze.
Good idea! See my post about BYOS... patrons bring a straw, restaurant can’t refuse to serve a drink already ordered w/out a straw. Game over.
So, would the idiot DC straw police then fine a patron, who takes their straw with them!!!?? When they leave.
Yes... see my post about “Ask about BYOS for discounts”.
Bring your own straw- nothing printed about it— take the discount at the discretion of the owner without printing anything on the receipt. Just do it. People will bring reusable silver straws (maybe the same ones they snort with later— who cares) in a special pocket case.
Just what IS the defn of a ‘straw’?
I live an hour or so north of DC. I’m going to start bringing my own plastic straws and leaving them there.
I hate paper straws
