I got this fun fee after trying to order takeout from Buffalo Wild Wings (yes I'm naming and shaming). How exactly does adding a dollar help you operate takeout? It's literally less work than waiting on a table. This is nothing more than a shameful cash grab to pad profits.

I cancelled my order and got local street tacos instead.

EDIT: Look what I found this morning, lol https://www.today.com/food/restaurants/buffalo-wild-wings-takeout-fee-backlash-complaint-rcna90228

Maybe the owner is taking the tips from the servers, and this is to "compensate" that

This may be imposed by the take out provider. Some states/municipalities also tack on extra fees

I don't think I'd call $1.00 absurd, but I'm not a fan of such fees. Am I allowed to bring my own containers and bags to avoid this cost?

I haven't had BWW in over a decade. Saw their mango habanero sauce in the grocery store the other day and realized I now have no reason to ever visit one again.

Last time I ordered to go from there I got home and there was a live fly walking all over my salad. We threw everything away and disputed the credit card charge due to unsafe food.

i spent $20 at Arby's for a burger, fries, and shake (as a meal). just go to Olive Garden... seriously lol

The original poster added context in a comment, saying that the location they ordered from was a Buffalo Wild Wings Go store, a contactless version of the establishment.

Was the location you were ordering from one of these? Maybe instead of paying proper wages like fast food restaurants these assholes were trying to make up for people being unlikely to tip for pickup to keep the profits from being able to pay employees barely anything?

Mine was not, it was a traditional BWW establishment. Tbh, I didn't know they had such a thing lol
