It's different because in restaurants and bars it is so well established and priced in, it's really just part of the price.

This is the same US mentality where businesses are allowed to advertise the pre-tax price of a product. Essentially it's just a way for the seller to lie about their product price (yet the financial industry has free rein to force business to not itemize the CC fee).

Everything seems more expensive in Europe, but at least you're paying prices that already include VAT.

There are restaurants that have tried, several in Brooklyn currently do. I guess we'll see how it all plays out.
