Alamo Drafthouse in San Francisco is no longer a place of honor. On top of all the depressing automation of the experience and loss of what used to be amazing, beautifully curated pre-show content, the new food app seemed designed to prevent people from tipping the hard-working servers who have to run around in the dark. #sfba

@annaleen@wandering.shop It's not likely perhaps that they got rid of tipping and raised prices to cover it? Some joints here have done that.

Update: apparently the app will automatically add a 20% tip when you close out your tab. I had no idea until I got home and saw the email receipt.

@annaleen@wandering.shop That's a real shame. They used to be so great. I was excited to notice they have one in Arlington, but now I'm less excited.
