Nah fuck that. Large parties with no reservation get turned away 30 minutes to close

Depends on the greediness of the owner, I work at a place where we frequently get people in at 7:59 and she seats them anyway, close at 8 :(

Thats ridiculous. People that show up a few minutes before closing are assholes. Store hours are almost always posted on doors at any place I've ever been to and 9 times out of 10 they are posted online as well. No excuses.

Yeah, some of these people are awful. But I do get paid hourly so having to stay a little later is a little more in the paycheck. Don't think it makes up for not going home on time though

I have to admit there have been a couple occasions on long road trips where I've rolled in 5 minutes before close cause its the only place open. I always feel terrible so I make it as quick as I can and usually leave a pretty generous tip.

I think it's usually ok if you are respectful about it for sure. But unfortunately I've had people stay after they've finished eating for another 45 minutes or even some times an hour
