I did something today and wondered if it was illegal. Ordered food at Burger King. The line was just flat out not moving. Literally 3 or 4 minute wait for the line to move one car. So I got out of line after ordering and before paying.
Illegal or not?
The reason I'm wondering is 'cuz if it was sit down, I'm thinking they would try to charge me if I got up and walked out before the food came to the table.

Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.
Re: Drive thru drive off
I don't see any legal problem with walking out on slow service after you've placed a food order, both drive-thru and sitdown. Reasonably quick service is part of what you're buying.Round Six wrote: ↑Wed Sep 20, 2023 5:47 pmI did something today and wondered if it was illegal. Ordered food at Burger King.

When I've walked out on slow food service in a sitdown restaurant after being served a drink, I've always left enough money on the table to cover the drink and a small tip.
