Why would a restaurant insist a Groupon is only for eating at the restaurant, not takeout?

Asked by jca (36062points) May 8th, 2016

There’s a restaurant near my job that often has Groupon available, for $7 for $15 worth of food (Thai restaurant). The “fine print” always specifies it’s not for takeout or delivery, it’s for “dining in” only. If they’re giving away fifteen dollars worth of food for seven dollars, what would it matter to them if you eat it there or take it out?
