group, this isn't
8:53
really the done thing to do,
8:55
um especially if you're on individual
8:57
drinks. A lot of pubs will just prefer
8:58
you to pay as you go. The main thing is
9:01
just be respectful and chat chat to your
9:02
bartenders cuz they're always up for a
9:04
chat. That's the thing. That it gets
9:06
very boring standing behind a bar doing
9:08
the same thing constantly. So, people
9:10
always up for a chat. If you've got any
9:12
questions, it's it's always good to ask.
9:13
Like people for the most part will be
9:15
very very receptive to that. And we we'd
9:18
love to we'd love to just talk to
9:19
people. When you come into a pub, if you
9:22
just ask for a beer, it will always be a
9:24
pint. So, if you want a half pint, ask
9:26
for a half pint. Otherwise, you'll
9:28
always get a pint.
9:29
>> Yeah, that's a big commitment.
9:30
>> Yeah, and also when you come up and
9:31
order, it's it's different than a lot of
9:34
other countries. You pay when you order.
9:36
So, you come up, order your drinks, you
9:38
get your drinks, pay straight away, and
9:40
then take your drinks with you to the
9:41
table. I would say if you're ordering
9:43
Guinness, Oh, yeah. which is a stout,
9:46
always order it first. Why is that? Uh
9:48
because you have to wait for it to
9:49
settle and then we can do everything
9:51
else while that is settling.
9:53
Um and also, if if we put it there and
9:55
it isn't full up yet, Don't take it off
9:57
the bar.
9:58
>> [laughter]
9:59
>> I see.
10:00
>> Does that make sense? There happens a
10:01
lot. Also, don't grab your drink from
10:04
whoever [laughter] is serving you from
10:06
their hand.
