Hello, just out of curiousity, which of the cards below you see more often than the others?
1, Chase Freedom
2, Chase Sapphire Preferred
3, Barclay Arrival+
Is 2, and 3, commonly seen in a common restaurant?

I am the office manager at a higher end establishment. I really am not allowed to say more than that. We see quite a few Freedoms, some CSP, and a ton of Amex. Never seen Barclays much in the wild, except I have seen a Barclays Rewards once and a Sallie Mae once (had a hard time saying, "I know, right" )
I work in a grocery store, and out of the three cards listed, I see Chase Freedom the most frequently. Most of them tend to be MasterCard iterations, though. I'm always tempted to tell them that they could contact Chase and request a Visa.
So do you guys see chase sapphire preferred very common in restrauants? Anyways, what's the most common card people use in food places?

"That will be $4.50 please. Hmm..Mastercard...on a Freedom? Oh you're doing it all wrong.."
Not a cashier, but the other day at the vet I saw a Cap1 Platinum. It had the cool sunset scene with the palm trees! I had that one before I pc'd to the QS
Then when we were at the Apple store I saw a lady paying with a Chase Freedom. I didn't notice if it was a MC or visa cause I didn't want her to think I was weird...LOL
Chase Freedom FOR SURE.
Over 40% of the time, i'd say.
I rarely see Barclay Arrival+, in fact - I can't recall seeing one (I work at Target).
Chase Sapphire is probably 20-25% of the time (in terms of the cards we're talking about)
I like talking to people like "Hey does this card have good rewards?" and they're like "Oh yeah, the best ever..... It's the VentureOne card, I get 1% cash back or something like that, you should look into it." My response: "Ma'am if you get the Fidelity American Express you could get 2% back everytime." (After my Target REDCard 5% pitch of course ) Love to see the oblivious people in terms of rewards. Maybe we're just nerds....erm.
