This bugs me too. We are using some of our wedding present money to go to the Fat Duck tomorrow night.

There is a 12.5% service charge, but that's going to equal a £120 tip. That is more in itself than we have ever spent on a meal for 2.

Don't get me wrong, I've budgeted it, and I will pay it, but I do feel it perhaps a little unfair.
