Favorite Pizza in SoWal

[gmarc]

china cat i started going to Johnny McTighes 3 months ago and the cheese steak and pizza were awesome. I would say the best on 30-a as i've eaten at almsot every restraunt.about 4-6 weeks ago it turned awful with either 2 much sauce, too little sauce and a different cheese on the pizza. the philly cheese went down the tubes too. we ate there at least 10 times and loved it and had written it off. because of your honesty and you say things have changed i'll give it another try

As a matter of fact I did. Those that know me, know that I'm pretty straight forward. When our server/co-owner came to the table I pointed out that I felt that the cost of the tea was out of line. He informed us, and this is a quote, "I make the tea fresh and we are just trying to make extra money". I informed him that I liked the tea but it surely isn't worth 2 bucks per glass. I'm sorry, I just feel ripped off. Am I wrong here, does anyone pay for refills anymore, especially tea?

I would say this is probably not a good practice unless they clearly let people know up front. I really dislike finding this out after the fact as well. I do hope they catch this thread and make the proper adjustments.

I have never had to pay for Coke, tea, or coffee refills (well, extra at Starbucks).

Once, however, at McDonalds I only wanted a McDouble ($1), a small fry($1), and tap water (should have been free), and they made be pay for a Dasani (about the same price as for my burger and fries) or either pay the same price for the tap water as for a Dasani.

This is pretty standard practice. Drinks are the highest profit item for a restaurant. When a customer asks for a water cup and proceeds to fill it up with soda (I'm not saying you did or would) it starts adding up.

As to free refills I know the restaurants that don't offer free refills on things like tea and sodas and won't go to them. It takes a lot of free refills to remove the profit.

WOW...Charging for every Coke and Iced Tea Refill is a quick way to get people upset..they won't be around long with that policy....I know I will never set foot in the place with my Family..last thing I need is 25 Dollars in Coke and Tea on a Check!!

If they served sodas in a can or bottle, people wouldn't be complaining about charging for seconds, so why do people complain when they serve it in a cup and charge for refills? If it is iced tea brewed 3 gallons at a time, the typical standard in the South is to not charge for refills. HOWEVER, if they are brewing tea one cup at a time with a little bag, like hot tea, it is standard to charge for seconds in the South. I'm not sure which they do.

They were serving the tea from a pitcher and the coke was in cans. I don't mind a buck for a can of soda but two is a little high. Refills on brewed tea is absurd.

Because there is a huge difference in the price of cans and bottles Vs Syrup Costs..When you are charging 2.00 for a fountain Coke the Patron has to drink 20 of them before you lose money...that's why free refills are the norm....and don't even get me started on paying for Tea Refills....It is not possible for any Customer to drink 2.00 worth of Tea...It's about the cheapest stuff on Earth...In fact I have never been to anyplace that charges for tea refills so The Pickle Factory is just gouging the customer if they are actually doing that

So, it only matters when you know how much the seller is making? That is interesting. Why not just regulate the amount of coke you drink? Pouring 12 oz can of Coke into a 14 oz filled with ice would give you that refill which you get with fountain soda. Just switch to water after you finish that Coke, because no one needs more Coke than that anyway.
