5 Rules of Bar Etiquette

So after the @dapswebsite party Friday night I realized some people do not know how to get served at a bar. I guess its one of those things that you have to learn yourself but I’m here to tell you before you act like a fool.

1) The bartenders see you: I know all of us can’t wait to get served but just have patience or leave. Some bars only operate 1 or 2 bartenders on a busy night so just wait to get served and when you do get served have manners like “Thank You”.

2) Know What You’re Drinking: You just ordered 16 shots and 8 drinks for the cast of Jersey Shore and the bartender had it to you in less than 5 minutes. Have your money out when the bartender gets back. Even if you don’t know how much you’re going to spend take out a 50 dollar bill.

P.S. Run a tab. It’s fast and easy and you only have to figure out the tip once

3) Don’t Fight: If you have to take it outside.

4) Don’t Complain About Prices: At most bars the cover/door charge goes to the band. The bar does not make any money off of that. When I go see the @Avonjunkies play I know that they bust their ass and deserve to get paid.

5) Don’t Expect Free Drinks. EVER: Some bartenders will buy you a drink/shot. Some won’t. Get over the fact if you didn’t get a free beer for the night. My cousins a restaurant/bar manager in D.C. and under no circumstances are they allowed to give out free drinks. They even have a systems that measure how much alcohol was poured for each shot. So relax cowboy.

Bonus 6) ALWAYS TIP
