北京一项调查显示，16家烤肉店中有11家收取炭火费，收费标准从8元至20元不等1。这些费用以多种名目出现，包括"炭火费""烤炉费""能源费""燃料费"等1。消费者反映，炭火费在入座前就已自动生成为账单中的必选项，无法规避1。
消费者程先生的账单中包含20元炭火费和每人8元自助小料费，共52元1；消费者严女士则遭遇10元"山核桃炭"和每人6元"自制小料费"自动成为必选项1。对此做法的合理性引发质疑。
北京市京师律师事务所律师李宝莲指出，炭火、烤炉等是完成烤肉服务的基本条件，属于烤肉店的经营成本1。保障正常用餐所必须提供的基本服务不应强制单独收费1。李宝莲律师表示，烤肉店将自身应承担的服务义务和经营成本拆分转嫁给消费者，属不合理收费行为1。她进一步指出，如果消费者实际无法规避炭火使用，且炭火费定价远高于市场价格，这种行为可能被认定为强制交易1。
An investigation into sixteen barbecue establishments in Beijing found that eleven of them charge mandatory charcoal fees, ranging from 8 to 20 yuan 1. The charges appear under various names including "charcoal fee," "grill fee," "energy fee," and "fuel fee," and are automatically added to customers' bills before they are seated, making them non-negotiable 1. One diner reported being charged 20 yuan for charcoal plus 8 yuan per person for self-service condiments, totaling 52 yuan in mandatory additions 1, while another encountered a 10-yuan "mountain walnut charcoal" charge alongside a 6-yuan per-person "homemade condiment fee" that were preset as required items 1.
Legal experts have raised concerns about the practice. Li Baolian, an attorney at Beijing Jingshi Law Firm, argues that charcoal and grills—essential to completing a barbecue service—represent basic operational costs rather than separate services that should be billed independently 1. According to Li, restaurants that separate and shift their service obligations and operational expenses onto consumers constitute unreasonable charges 1. Furthermore, Li contends that if consumers cannot practically avoid using charcoal and the charcoal fee is substantially higher than market rates, such charges may be deemed as forced transaction practices 1.
