    It's quite simple! Make people pay before they eat. either CASH up front or a preauthorisation on their debit/credit card (similar to when you buy petrol). Trust is the foundation of commerce and a few dodgy consumers have destroyed that. Honesty is in short supply these days.

    • @FreudsSlipper

      Agreed. I occasionally get big heavy shopping groceries delivered, and supermarket pre-authorises total plus 15% on the card incase requested items are unavailable and higher priced alternative needs to be swopped in.
      Same as "I came in for just a main meal, but I'm gonna have a starter too...and an extra side"

      All restaurants need to copy McDonalds example. 1. Order your food. 2. Pay for your food. 3. Decide to eat in or take out.

      @@trusttruth8889 This is precisely how it works in most bars and pubs. Order at the bar and pay immediately before the ticket is even put through to the kitchen.
      During the pandemic when they had online ordering via QR code you needed to check out and pay as if buying anything else online.

    If cost of living is high, eating out should be one of the first things to stop. The cost of a dinner at a restaurant is a few times greater than what the same food would cost at home. I would be afraid to enter a restaurant because I would definitely look like a suspect. The might restructure traditional restaurants to only let rich people in or turn them into cafes. At a cafe you pay for your buns and drink first and then go and sit down.

    Either make people pay up front before the food is served, or require pre-authing a credit card before being seated.
    The former approach is how fast food and most bars/pubs have been operating for years. It's not a problem at all.

      You are taking the mike here.
      If you were a roofer and had to pay for roof supplies, you don't expect customers to not pay because of increasing prices.
      The restaurants have to pay for increasing prices of food, so they'll work on a greater loss with your theory. You can feed a family of 4 for less than £10 a day, you just have to buy the raw ingredients and cook. If a meal out is £50, that's because that's the price, the worth of the food, the venue, the waiting staff, the chef, the washing up, the crockery, the management.

      Anyone who has a genuine issue with their food, should raise the matter politely so the restaurant has chance to put it right - or they may waive the charge for that part of the meal if the customer is still unhappy. Absolutely no excuse for stealing.
