Or... You could take the high road instead if trying to make a point to those who don't care. I'd pay my bill in full, over tip the waiter or waitress and thank them for their service, and politely leave. Which would have a more positive impact, implying a gun carrier is so pissed off they risk dine and dash, or sucking up to their request, paying, over tipping and letting them know you'll be glad not to return? I've actually given out free coupons to open carriers in my restaurants. Those who may know where I work, PLEASE do not post it publicly!!!
Seems like the simplest and most ethical thing to do is ask. Do you want me to leave immediately or do you want me to pay first? If they want you to pay first, you haven't been trespassed yet as you still have been allowed to continue to stay on the property. Tell them to box it up as you pay. Simple enough. You get what you paid for (food, that's what you bought, not the right to sit there) and they get what they want (the ability to exercise control over who stays on their property).

This is the problem right here. Don't patronize corporate food establishments, and you won't have to worry about it. But to answer OP, no. If you owe for what you eat, they owe for setting and serving you while you are carrying.Then call coorporate
and get a refund that way.

Close but not quite..
You do pay for the right to sit there.. That's why St. Elmos gets more for a steak than Texas Roadhouse. Its almost the same piece of meat, but the atmosphere is considerably different.
In a sit down eatery I most certainly did pay for the use of a chair and a table, I do not get steak to go, it is eaten off of a plate not out of a box.
I paid for the food, the service, and the atmosphere. As I posted up thread, if I wanted take out, I would have ordered take out. Once I leave, I may not have the opportunity to eat the remainder of that food for some time. To say that sitting and finishing a meal = eating a partial meal or none at all and scraping the rest is ridiculous.
Some of you guys need to point out where it says on the menu that seating is included in the price. Here's a hint: it's not.
My way is this...
I have to ask you to leave...
What...right now?
Yes...
Okay.
Then I get up and leave without paying. They specified right now, which means right now. If they ask me to pay for my meal first I'll ask them to box it up for me and pay. But they choose. I just put it in such a way that they will probably voluntarily refuse payment by asking me to leave immediately.
I have yet to be kicked out of any place though.
They deliver it to the table you are sitting at don't they?
So? The menu doesn't say "Steak and a table and chair." They provide the seating for your convenience. It helps you spend money but if they don't mention it don't assume it's included IN THE PRICE.
