I'm sure some sort of humor can be found in this. No one was hurt were they?

If making yourself look like a complete idiot was the humour you were looking for you really exceeded expectations...

Also my "question about law" was not asking about a discount. it was asking if by law a person has to pay for food if something is seriously wrong with it. NOT APPLICABLE in my case here. Just a general consensus question.

I am not sure about the law but as a general consensus;

I don't think you would have to pay for it if there is something seriously wrong. The fact that you ate more than 1 bite dismisses the potential for something "seriously wrong".

The world doesn't revolve around fucking laws. Have some common sense.

Also lol @ OP, like Lomac said. If you think you were that underserved tell a manager and pay the bill without leaving anything for tip. Not even pay total bill? Lol fuck.

For me, if the service is that bad I will make a point to leave $0.00 as the tip. This sends a message where as people who think they are sending a message by leaving like 2-5% are just coming off as cheapskates

I leave $0.01 as a tip for bad food/service, if you tip nothing they might just think you're a person who doesn't tip. $0.01 or a nickel they should realize you went out of your way to make a point with that "tip"

Went to IHOP at about 8:30pm purely cause my little 2 year old loved the pancake commercial, so me and the lady took her there. When our food came the waffles were cold, the bacon also, as well the eggs were not warm either also they weren't over easy like we asked. Tryed looking for the busy lady but ended up giving up cause we were just too hungry and she wouldn't come around. We told her about it when we caught her attention, Wasn't about to wait for new food at this point being too hungry (i'm sure we can all relate). She told her manager (some stupid asshole young kid about 20yrs old) and was told we can only make you new ones, thats it. it was mostly eaten after. I was pissed off at this point, so continuing to argue to basically a wall i got no where. So i ended up deducting a few dollars of my own ($2.00, i thought was more than fair) and said "this is all i'm paying, you're suppose to serve food at a proper temperature and i we were COMPLETELY unsatisfied". What is the law regarding this? If a customer is given completely unsatisfactory food and horrible service are they obligated to pay if no satisfaction is met? This was THE WORST manager i've ever met at a restaurant, complete asshole. I would have been satisfied w/ even a 15% discount, and not even that was offered.

Quoted in case he deletes the post :ilied:

Looks like we've got a winner

Spoiler!

No, not at all..... it's more like the others are worried if you are hurt or not... in the inside of course.

I had to go double check it wasn't the same person.

contact IHOP of Canada directly. they'll probably make it up to you.

A review on yelp.
"ATTENTION, CANADIANS!!!
You are being lied to at this location. The staff at this IHOP do not give out the special menu with the good prices. How would you like to eat sausage, eggs and hashbrowns, plus two pancakes with fruit and syrup for under $9? YOU CAN. You have to ask for the "specials menu". They won't give it to you outright, like they should, because they lose tips if you pay too little for your meal.

My wife and I are from Washington and when we came over there, we did not get this menu. When we asked for it, the staff reluctantly pulled two of them out from underneath their desk. One of the waiters asked what this menu is, and the other explained that "We don't give it out, but we have to if someone asks. Only people from the US know about it." WHAT?!?!?! Guess what, they are REQUIRED to give this menu out with the regular menu, but they don't do it. On top of that, they are REQUIRED to allow substitutions on this special menu, you should be able to have french fries instead of hashbrowns, but they refused to do it for us.

When we ordered from this menu, the service stopped. The waiters were rude to us, and the whole experience was extremely unpleasant.

ASK FOR THE SPECIALS MENU. It's there, they can't refuse it to you. But they won't give it to you, because they want you to pay more. Some of the combos on the special menu that cost $8-9 will cost you close to $20 if you order them separately from the regular menu, and they're counting on that.

Talk to the manager, I'm not sure if management is in on it, but just take a look around. Everyone gets the regular menu. They have the specials advertised on the side of the building, but you can never order them because they hide the menu from you."
