How To

How to order drinks at the bar without embarrassing yourself

Although there are many ways to order drinks at a local bar, you need to be able to identify the drink you desire before you approach the counter. If you don't know what drink you want, then you should ask your server how they would recommend ordering it. You won't have any embarrassment asking for their recommendations.

This involves talking to your server and telling him/her what kind of drink you would like. It might sound like this: "I'd like to have a glass of beer." Next, tell your server exactly what type of beer you would like. For example, if Budweiser is what you are looking for, you could say "a Budweiser." Next you will tell your server the size of beer you want (e.g. large, medium or large). Once you are done, the server will give you the correct price and you won't feel awkward ever again.
