How To
How to order drinks at the bar without embarrassing yourself
There are many ways you can order drinks at your local pub, but you must know what type of drink it is before you go up to the bar. If you don't know which drink you want, you can ask your server what order they would recommend. You won't have any embarrassment asking for their recommendations.
This is where you speak with your server, and tell them what kind of drink that you desire. Perhaps you say "I'd prefer a glass," and then tell your server exactly which beer you desire. For example, you could say, "A Budweiser." Next, tell you server which size you desire (e.g., small medium large). You will never feel awkward again once you are done.
