As someone who decided to quit buying liquor and anything else at The Epicurean Trader because they installed a credit card fee (ie instead of just offering a cash discount), I would suggest not going back to restaurants that have policies that one dislikes. These businesses won’t change and we can change our tendency to give our money to an eatery that isn’t giving us satisfaction. I have the bridge-burning ability to stop frequenting places that I’ve enjoyed for years or decades. I’m a total wolf.
