In place of a buy back, the bartender offered me a shot. “No thanks” I waived him off. “Coffee?” He offered. I shook my head. “You don’t like coffee?”

Went to a bunch of bars on a recent trip, including some hotly tipped ones like Shapes for a Name in London. Many were good, a few were great. Our favorite was a place called Brettos in Athens, which is gorgeous for one thing but also kind of funky and laidback. They make their own ouzo, brandy, etc.

Apparently a year and a half ago there was such a surplus of business that this bouncer felt the need to keep me out of the bar based on how I was unsteadily walking down the street. Now I just ignore him

How much is a gin and tonic in your bars? I live near a pub but don't drink that often. They're the sort that always give you a premium brand little can of tonic even though it's too much for one gin. Anyway last time I went in it was £7.75 ffs (that's nearly $10).
― kinder, Saturday, 12 August 2023 10:08 (nine months ago) link
that sounds pretty normal to me. the price ultimately depends on the type of gin.

This question piqued my curiosity so I just ordered a Tanqueray & tonic at my local in Brooklyn and it cost $14 (before tip). This is not a fancy bar btw, in fact it’s modeled after a Liverpool pub.
― Josefa, Saturday, 12 August 2023 19:02 (nine months ago) link
Yup $12 and up
― calstars, Saturday, 12 August 2023 19:09 (nine months ago) link
I should add that I was surprised by this myself, as I normally order all my drinks without paying and then as I’m leaving the bar I ask the bartender what I owe and simply pay what he says. I would have assumed my g&t’s were more like $9 or $10. For comparison, most of the pints here cost $8.
― Josefa, Saturday, 12 August 2023 19:14 (nine months ago) link
$6 + tax for well gin (Gordon's) and cheap canned tonic water iirc. We have nice tonic syrup for customers wanting an improved G&T for 8.50 + tax. A lot of our stuff is probably underpriced.
