The Supreme People's Court (SPC) said that disputes arising from overbearing terms and conditions encountered by consumers in the provision of services by catering operators can be governed by the provisions of the Consumer Law and not by the Regulations. The Supreme People's Court further pointed out that "prohibiting bringing one's own drinks" and "setting a minimum consumption for private rooms" are unfair and unreasonable provisions made by catering operators to increase consumers' responsibilities by taking advantage of their dominant position, which violates the relevant laws and regulations, and are Overbearing terms and conditions.

As long as alcoholic beverages are available and the charges are reasonable, consumers generally do not bring their own alcohol.
The survey shows that when there are popular varieties of alcoholic beverages available in the catering industry and the charges are reasonable, only 15.5% of the consumers said that they would also bring their own alcohol, and the vast majority of the consumers would not normally bring their own alcohol except in special circumstances. The survey also shows that consumers believe that the main reason for bringing their own drinks is that the catering industry offers consumers a single variety to choose from, the price is too high, and it is more economical to bring their own. The survey also shows that most people believe that this is an infringement of the consumer's right to choose, but some people believe that eating should be a happy thing, although unreasonable, but also will not count or embarrassed to count. This can be seen, the majority of consumers know but not for the psychological, that this move violates their rights and interests, but let it go, and even some consumers in the way of face to give up rights, reflecting consumer self-protection awareness has to be further strengthened.
