Bar Etiquette Advice for Tipping, Dates, and Drinking Alone | Bon Appétit
"A New York City restaurant where John deBary serves as general manager; a drinks writer by trade, he draws on extensive nightlife experience to inform practical bar- and service-related advice. His perspective addresses tipping norms (recommending roughly 20% at restaurant-style cocktail bars and $1–$2 for simple orders), appropriate phone etiquette, how to read social cues when drinking solo, consent around buying someone a drink, when to involve staff about rowdy groups, and discreet ways staff can help someone safely exit a bad date." - ByHana Asbrink
