How To
How to Order Drinks at The Bar without Being Embarrassed
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 the type of drink that you want, ask your server for their recommendations. You won't have to embarrass your server by asking for recommendations.
This is where you speak with your server, and tell them what kind of drink that you desire. You might say something like, "I'd like a glass of beer." Then tell him/her exactly what kind of beer you want. For example, you could say, "A Budweiser." Next, tell you server which size you desire (e.g., small medium large). When you're done, he/she will give you the correct price, and you'll never feel awkward again!
