In a move to provide fair wages, several Brooklyn coffee shops are eliminating tipping policies, opting for increased drink prices and steady pay for baristas.
By removing tipping, these coffee shops aim to support consistent and fair wages, allowing baristas to earn up to $33 per hour without relying on tips.
