Who exactly pays for the meal when its “on the house”?
In: Other
It means no price to you. The house is the “establishment” so the owner of the restaurant isn’t charging you. But it still cost him to buy three ingredients store them have someone prep them, make them to order clean the dishes etc so it’s not “free”.
Also if you’re in a service restaurant it reminds you that even though you’re getting a deal it’s still a transaction so don’t forget to tip the server.
