If I go somewhere and they try to add 20% extra to my bill, they're not getting paid anything at all and I'm leaving immediately. I might even put in an order and walk out just to spite them. That would permanently lose me as a customer for sure.
Fortunately I've only encountered it twice so far, both times we walked out and made sure they understood why they lost our business.
