I was visiting family and we went to a restaurant in NC that did this and the waitress just shrugged and said "We are environmentally friendly, we don't have paper menus. Borrow someone's phone" and then walked away.

Questions I didnt get to ask... Like how much environmental impact does a dozen menus have? Also before you walk away... can I borrow your phone? I am not asking some stranger for the phone.

My sister ended up having a smartphone with her. We wanted to leave, but my mom wasn't having none of it because "it would be impolite, they have already served us water".

You know who else serves water mom? Prison, prison serves water. Is it impolite to leave prison!?

You gotta leave before your first cup of water. It's one cool trick the prison industry doesn't want people to know about.

I seriously doubt that a webserver running 24/7 has less environmental impact than printing 50 pieces of paper one time.

Could be running on a service multiple restaurants can subscribe to. Also, paper menus could have to be replaced, whether by updates or damage.
