Waive Tea Seating Charge

It sounds like you're referring to the common practice in the United States where restaurants waive the tea seating charge, also known as a "tea tax" or "tea service charge," for customers who order tea instead of coffee or other beverages.

In the US, it's common for restaurants to charge a small fee, usually around $0.25 to $0.50, for refilling tea or coffee cups. This charge is typically listed as a separate item on the bill, and it's intended to cover the cost of the restaurant constantly refilling the customer's cup.

However, some restaurants may waive this charge for customers who order tea, as a way to encourage people to choose tea over other beverages. This practice is not universal, and it's up to each individual restaurant to decide whether or not to waive the tea seating charge.

It's also worth noting that some restaurants may offer free refills on tea or coffee, but this is not always the case. It's always a good idea to check with your server or the restaurant's policy to see if they offer any discounts or promotions related to tea or coffee.

I hope this helps clarify things for you! Let me know if you have any other questions.
