Many users actually suggested cafes just include the cost in their regular prices, rather than tacking on an extra charge.

This surprise charge isn’t just making people cranky, it’s sparking concerns that the cost of living crisis has gone too far.

According to the ABS, eating out costs have jumped 3.3% in the last year alone, and a massive 34% since 2019.

Come on, Australia! Everything’s getting pricier, but for the love of the country, just leave our chicken salt alone!
