If people at the tables are paying then you leave them the fuck alone.

Coming home from the Glee watching party, are you?

It's fine for the most part. Don't pull it on a weekend night. Have the courtesy to depart if you see too many groups waiting on tables.

If you become a problem, a manager will politely rush you, and as a last resort ask you to settle up and leave.

>>7360457
I'd say depends a great deal on if the place is busy or not.

If it's empty it's probably cool, if you're taking up valuable table space you're being assholes.

Get together dinners on a weekend night and then leave for the bar to hang out more when the restaurant closes around 10pm.

Maybe 3-4 drinks are bought for 10 people. Place is near capacity. Just hangout for an hour or two.

>>7360512
3-4 drinks for 10 people over 2 hours in a packed place.. yeah, you're straddling between inconsiderate and douchebag.

>>7360512
If they are not over capacity, and can still seat paying customers, the only person you are pissing off is your server. Tip them well, and it's not a problem.

If there are customers looking to sit and order food, you are costing them money, and inconveniencing the waiting customers. That's a dick move. You wouldn't want to wait, so don't make someone else wait.

>>7360520
Okay great, yeah it's near full but there's room for more and no one is waiting.

The server gets the good 18% or so.

>>7360528

Wowsers

>>7360528
Tip more. she's having to fill your sodas or what have you, and the 18% on 3-4 drinks is like 3 bucks. have everyone at the table chip in a dollar.

If a consistent thing at a busy then they hate you there

Also is it a dick move to order 1 water per drink?

As a palette cleanser for after or in between.

>>7360554
Only if you call it a palate cleanser.. and order them at the same time..

>>7360554
No, it's common for people to drink a water per alcoholic beverage if they are concerned about hangovers.

Why don't you and all your pussy friends hang out somewhere that isn't a packed bar if only a third of you are getting anything?

>>7360583
It's the only thing open at the hour that is convenient and has alcohol.

>>7360564
Why is it bad to order at the same time? Isn't it worse to stop the waitress 3-4 times for 1 water?

>>7360715
None of you have homes? Keep a bit of booze for entertaining?

>>7360832
It's too late to go to houses, it'll wake people up.
