From a patron's POV: 1:38 Bartenders do not know the queue exactly. They are pretty good at it, but will miss people sometimes and usually reset to some pattern 3:30 "What's good?" You're the professional. You know what people like and you know the value of well-made liquor. The guy/girl that comes into a bar a couple times a year has no idea. Share some knowledge 4:00 It is frustrating getting shots and then finding out later that certain shots are on special that night that could have save some money. Share the specials info, if any

From a bartender, your first one is mostly right. Sometimes you miss people walk up as you’re taking care of tabs but generally you are aware of people who walk up. The 2nd, not everyone has the same taste and you can’t just judge based on appearances. If you want a recommendation then you need to give us something to work with. Like spirit forward vs light and refreshing. 3. If you want cheap shots then generally you can just say you want the “well tequila” and they’ll know to pour the cheapest tequila they have.

I work in a restaurant and people ask for things that aren't on the menu ALL THE TIME!!! and then bitch that it should be. This is especially irritating when you work at a franchise because the menu is totally out of control of the actual person that is serving you, the manager and even the owner.

Agree with most of these except a few and these are things bartenders can be better at as well: 3)- “Ordering ONE drink at a time”. It doesn’t take too much effort or time to ask your customers “Will that be all?” or “Anything Else?” after hearing an order, depending on the demand. 5)- “Make it strong”. Again, depending on the situation, ask what they want more or less of. Sometimes leaving out that extra 8 cents of cola/juice makes all the difference in a tip. If they’re just looking for a stiff drink, pour an extra shot and charge that. Let them know you can’t strengthen the alcohol content without adding more alcohol. There are also plenty of ways to trick cheap drunk assholes into thinking it’s stronger than it actually is. 6)- “I don’t know what I want”. Once again, read the situation. If it’s chill, wait and listen (what the hell else you doing?). If it’s busy, “Hey, I’ll be right back while you guys figure it out”. If you’re frickin slammed, walk away and help someone who’s ready. They’ll either leave and stop bothering you or they’ll know better next time. 9)- “What’s good/Cheap”. This is a dead giveaway that someone is looking to get lit for the least amount possible. However, it also depends on how much money you want to potentially make. I don’t bullshit my customers on this because if they’re cheap, I’d rather be tipped $1.00 on a $5.00 shot of well than $0.50 on an $8.00 shot mid to top shelf

1 - they do that? Well, they get charged extra 2 - Snatch it out their hand and place it on the bar.. they usually get the hint 3 - I will get the first drink and as soon as they ask for a second I will stand there in silence and wait until they tell me them all 4 - Meh, just straight up ignore them, it's only thing you can do 5 - My bar is in Spain, it's always a tourist that asks this... they don't realize that our single measures are like UK doubles then end up so hammered that you don't see them again for a day or two 6 - "Okay, well I'll serve this person first then" 7 - "Go to ______ then!" 8 - If I know it, I will make it.. if I don't then tough. 9 - I don't allow these people to drink, I tell them it's expensive because typically the ones trying to get drunk quickly and cheap are usually gonna cause problems 10 - "No. Talk to each other."

One thing that really pisses me off is when a barman serves his friends first after they have arrived at the bar after you, all of a sudden they pretend that they have not seen you standing their for the last five minutes waiting patiently for them to finish serving the person before and start chatting and serving their friends as if they are next in line. Most of them do it yet few will admit to it.

As a former chef, you do occasionally get ass-holes ordering things that aren't on the menu. We once had a woman demand Oven-baked salmon with plain mashed potato and them complained it was bland! Or them asking if we had anything else apart from what was on the menu. NO! Why would we? We're not Starbucks, we don't have some secret menu that you need to perform a secret hand signal to access, what you see on the menu is what is available to eat! *roars and kicks over chair*

#1 - Yes #2 - Hell, Yes #3 - Oh, Hells Yes! #4 - Don't you have mirrors in your bar? (The reason most bars (in the US; that's where I bartended) have mirrors is so the bartender NEVER has their back to the bar.) #5 - Yeah #6 - Oh yes! #7 - I just said, "oh, really? They make it different? Then go there." (They insulted you; why be nice?) #8 - When they ask for something you don't have and they claim you did, don't argue with them. Just tell them, "we don't have it now. We have 'this' (something similar)." (And, actually, I've known a lot of people to ask for all kinds of things that aren't on either the bar menu or the food menu-- people love to do that, it makes them feel special; it's up to you whether you want to pander to them.) #9 -- What's good? LOL! Yeah, you could upsell them. Me, personally I would, in turn, grill them for specifics. It drives them crazy. "Do you like beer? Wine? Cocktails? I make a mean Long Island Iced Tea but you may not be able to walk out of here." For instance. :) Bartender's revenge takes many forms. #10 - It's simple. Just respond with, "sure, I'd love a new phone." (The real trouble is, you're think you're supposed to please these people. Who cannot charge their phone in their car?) No matter how these corporate restaurants try to spin it, no matter what any manager tells you, when you control the liquor people have to be nice to you. :D That's the bottom line. But, then, I worked in the states and in some states where a bartender can cut-off anyone at anytime, for any reason (or no reason at all) with complete impunity. That is, you cannot be fired or penalized for it. :D Talk about power. LOL! I once cut off a guy when he made a really crude pass at me; another time I kicked some one out (worse than being cut off; it means they cannot come in again) when they talked shit about me to my boyfriend. Totally inappropriate? LOL! Again. power.

StickSkits Since you make it abundantly clear you have never bartended, let me explain: #7: What they are usually trying to say is there isn't enough alcohol in the drink. This is not negotiable, at least not in the states and restaurants where I worked. The customer is NOT always right when it comes to alcohol. The bartender that over serves is responsible if anything should happen, as is the restaurant where they work. So, you don't like it DO go somewhere else (and cause trouble). #9 I'll give you a chance to read my original comment more carefully. It makes perfect sense to me but, then, I've bartended. The way you reinterpreted it, it's clear you are out of your league.

No. 8 - see the thing is if I go to a restaurant and ask for a cocktail I usually get it. There's a lot of simple classic cocktails that you ask for e.g. an old fashioned, martini, manhattan and people just don't know how to make them. I mean I know its going out of your way but I'm going to be charged over the fucking odds for it anyway and will end up tipping you as well. No. 6 - sometimes bars have a really shitty display so you can't see what spirits they have till you're close to the bar. I think it would be better if they had a price list of say a few spirits e.g. a Scotch list, because you can guarantee I don't fucking like standing there like a cunt

I hate when people ask for it be strong and I ask them if they want a double. When they say no I charge them first. 9/10 times they don't tip. Then they ask if it's stronger I ask why? The other day some girls were pulling this and I said why would I give you more for free and get nothing? They had an attitude and said they get stronger drinks at some other spot and they hook up the bartenders after they get hooked up..I told them I was the GM and my bonus is based on profit. So if I give away liquor for a few bucks that adds to more bottles we gotta buy and deducts from the profit line. So there is 0 way I can make more money "hooking you up" vs just charging what I am supposed to unless you are tipping more than the cost of drinks which defeats the purpose and might as well buy a double

StickSkits, if you go to bars often then how do you not know that you can't order a drink and demand that the bartender "make it strong". The alcohol is sold by a specific measure and the price is set accordingly. EVERYONE knows that if you ask for it "strong" you're paying for two drinks and the bartender is not going to risk being fired by putting extra in your drink for free. Also in a lot of places it is ILLEGAL to put more than two shots of alcohol in one glass. Are you saying that the bartender should break the law to "satisfy customer demands"?? Ridiculous. You don't go to bars often if you don't know this extremely basic information.

Well … if it's something unusual that's not on the menu, then yes, don't ask for it. But if it's one of the very very very basics of mixing then you'd better be able to to it (like Old Fashioned, Sazerac, Negroni, Manhattan, etc). I sometimes wonder why actual cocktail bars often don't have these on the menu. God damn it it's like an Italian restaurant without any form of pasta …

Normally, except for polite way to serve, there is a polite way to order also. And if you have worked with worse customers, its ok, but it doesn't mean nobody else should be speaking except you. stop complaining

Im a simple guy, and usually a rum and coke is my go to drink, but it pisses me off to no end when the bartender mixes the coke with a splash of rum. What the hell is that? at that rate it takes 10 of those wimpy drinks to get a buzz! Thats a lot of coke, and a lot of money! I go to the bar to get a buzz, not diabetes.

I worked as a bartender to put myself through law school. Yes it's a shit job but nobody is forcing you to do it. Most of the stuff you're complaining about comes with the territory of being a bartender. If you don't want to work a shit job, try acquiring more valuable skills.

Bartending is as an art and craft that requires soul. Your aim is to to meet the needs of the customer, not find petty things that "piss you off". If you really feel this fucking annoyed by things people do then you are in the wrong business. If people ask you for your opinion then you should pride yourself in sharing your knowledge, after all you are the one that is crafting the drinks. As for things not being on the menu, make the customer feel like you care for every single person that walks through the door and try and see if you have the ingredients to mix it. Like i said bar work is an art that demands your soul, and you should enjoy ever second of it, not every other minute get fucked of by peoples needs.

I don't think he's "finding" things that piss him off, rather these are *little* things that piss bartenders off, not annoyances that take over their entire professional career. If it's a slow bar then yes, these little things won't be much of an annoyance, but if it's a bustling bar then these little things can add up; and patrons asking for all these little things should know that when they're in a packed crowd it's actually not all about them.

Except for the jumping que, every one of these complaints is ridiculously mental. If that’s the attitude a bartender gives me, I’ll buy the cheapest drink and then throw it on him/her as I leave the establishment. I’ll take my business elsewhere. I guarantee you that people will work just as hard for my money as I had to. That means if I have a stupid question (in your opinion) you’ll answer it with grace and courtesy. If I ask for a drink that you are too lazy to make, but have the ingredients to make it, then fuck you. That means, I expect you to pull out that blender and use it!

You're there to provide a service as a bartender, if someone asks for a drink and says that they like it strong then it is up to you to satisfy your customer's demands even if you might find them annoying.

+StickSkits Yeah if they're willing to pay for the extra alcohol...every bar and restaurant has a set amount of alcohol for each drink (1.5 oz, 1.25oz whatever) and the price is set accordingly. So no they are not entitled to extra alcohol without having to pay for it. He didn't word everything perfectly in the video, but he did mention if you want extra ask for a double, but it's not gonna be free. Not to mention the bartender doesn't decide how much is supposed to go in each drink, it's set by the house, so if they get caught giving extra they could get in trouble, even lose their job.

That happens more than people realize. Order Guinness first (ALWAYS), and always order liquor-mixer, never mixer-liquor. It's a vodka-Red Bull, not Red Bull-vodka. To bump it up one, order the brand of liquor you want so the bartender doesn't have to drag that out of you as well. (Belvedere-Red Bull, please!)

It's all true what he is saying, but on the other side, it is a job. Got to do it as professionally as possible. Dealing with drunks is a tough task. I tend bar. For all of those who are quick to judge a bartender or server, you need to try and do it yourself, then you'll see what all the fuss is about. Trust me.
