I went to dinner last night for Mum's birthday and we got hit with a 15% surcharge for the public holiday. So is Saturday actually a holiday? In which case is Sunday also a holiday?

Originally Posted By debtee Hey Kez, How are you going? From what I can gather from the NSW public holiday website, Easter Sat is a public holiday for Good Friday. That's why you were charged a surcharge as businesses have to pay Public holiday rates on Easter Sat. Easter Monday, is the public Holiday for Easter Sunday. Anyway, I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter!
